Theres a witches hat (small) and a skull type mask front...anyone done anything with these? Imso tempted to get them but stumped for how to decorate them.-amy

no no I haven't come up with anything yet...oh wait...were you just signing your name? Haha. My name is Amy too so I got confused. just kidding. I haven't gotten any ideas but I am definitely going to watch this thread. Only thing I can think of is paint a halloween scene on them.

This is what my son decided to do with his skull blank.

Yeah ...sorry sometimes i sign. My name ....makes it a little more personal ....i love the pic of the skull one on the little guy!

Had some fun with them yesterday.

I bought a couple of the skull masks and want to decorate them for Day of the Dead but haven't had time with all my other Halloween party decor I've been making. The ones above look great!!

Wow! Those look really great and creepy 1031 Fun! I always think decopauge is a cool way to decorate them. You could also do some cool effects with foil and glue and then rub paint on them afterwards and antique them. Also, you could use dimensional paint and do small dots all over to make them look like diamonds!

As for the witch hat, you could do a candy corn witch hat or run tape down it and create a striped spiral design.

Thanks for the compliments.

I'm making some tomb stones right now and I'm looking through all my materials. I have one of Michael's paper mache blank skulls that I bought last year and never did anything with it.

In Terra's video for making tomb stones, she shows a skull that she attached to her tomb. This is what I'm gonna do with mine.
