Thread: Creepy Hanging Vines

Tweet

finally made some vines from cables and duct tape, spray painted them when I finished taping.

Suzeelili's , thats looks great! I suggest making it in its own thread for more visibility though! Looks easy! I always find cables at yard sales and now I see a use for them!

thanks kittyvibe!

I tinted the liquid latex with paint for a base coat and added corn meal for texture.
I coated the rope with a chip brush. 5-6 coats of the latex mixture seems to do the trick.
I added moss to the vines.
Add paint accents. I made these for Mardi Gras and they were displayed in the trees in downtown San Diego.

Feel free to ask any questions. You could also make old creepy tree roots out of the rope More pics :Halloween Forum - bobzilla's Album: Creepy Hanging Vines Mardi Gras pics : Mardi Gras 2010

You know what I found by mistake..... i was using that great foam or whatever it's called on top of plastic wrap and it didn't stick so you could just spray whatever you wanted out let it dry and then paint them..

Man that a great idea cool!!!!

thanks
