Black Feathers Everywhere

Just a quick post to show a feathered pumpkin that I just made.  Harder than I thought it was going to be.  And messy....real messy.  Diana

Death By Chocolate

Check out this funny headstone I found for my Fairy Garden!  But wait, there is more.  It was perfect to make a mold from that I could use for CHOCOLATE!!!
Using a two part mold compound from a previous project, I created this washable, oven safe (up to about 395) mold.   Think of the possibilities.

Next I took a chocolate and melted it (just barely) in the microwave.

Add a small handful of rice crispies.  Pour it into the mold, tapped it down on the counter to be sure the surface would be good and covered.  Chill and then unmold.  Next time I will use a little non stick spray to make the release a little easier.

Then I brushed on a little edible luster dust in silver and here is the candy bar size treat that brings a little creepiness to your indulgence!!!  Diana

Oh What a Can of Glitter Paint Can Do

Glitter in a can?  Who knew!  How wonderful!  Now EVERYTHING can get a coat of glitz with a push of a button!  Wow........  I took this plain Jane black craft (meaning cheap) wood house and sprayed glitter and shine on in one easy step.

I might cut a hole in the bottom and then insert an electric candle.  Spooky.  But with glitter.  Diana

Be Calm...It's Only a Spider

I needed to make this pendant.  The past two weeks have been so busy and I have a habit of getting really hyper when there is a lot going on.  Laid back?  Not so much.   
 I found one inch glass tiles that I decoupaged computer printed images on the backs of. 
 I just googled hanging spider to find this cute guy. 
6000 glue holds the pendant loop on.  No limits to what you could put on these!  Diana

Gothic Ring

When I saw these adorable Gothic scrapbook embellishments, I knew I had to have them.  There were twelve in the package!  And the first thing I made with them is this super cool ring!

Adjustable ring blank and a bit of 6000 glue......that's it.
And it cost pennies.  Seriously, just pennies.  Diana

Storybook Pendants

This is a very easy project.  A few charm frames. plastic inserts, and miniature book pages......plus some modge podge.  Lots of modge podge.  I modge podge the images on both sides of the inserts.  One side is a vintage picture from a book and on the other side is some text.  I found the crow at The Graphics Fairy and the Little Red Robin Hood at Vintage Catnip

The Raven pages were given a little brown ink to age them.  I am thinking this will be great for Halloween.  Love Halloween.  A lot.  Diana

BIG Tote

This is another scripture tote but this one is REALLY BIG!  I got a request from a young girl who wanted it for another girl in her Sunday school class.  It is going to be a surprise! 
There are lots of pockets inside and the totes dimension is 10x5x7.  Lots of room for scriptures, booklets and all the stuff you need in class.  Her favorite color is a lime green and the A is her first initial.  I machined quilted the green fabric so it is very sturdy.   No pattern for this one, just made as I went.  Lots of love stitched into it for a very special young lady.  Diana
