dumpster chair stage one

A crack seat beauty of a chair was left out by a dumpster.

This Michael Miller fabric happened to be close at hand.

This is stage one of the upcycle. Gothic diy.

For stage two, I want to slipcover the back with a gravestone. Or a bit of fabric cleverly made to look like a gravestone, since it is quite gravestone-y shaped, don't you think?

I'm completely stalled out on what to have printed or painted upon it.  Something inspired by a classic horror writer?  A Mary Shelley or Bram Stoker quote?  Or borrow an epitaph from a historic headstone?

What do you think?
