Barnacles, I saw a lot of good lamp globes and vases at the restore a week or so ago, but had my hands full of spindles and paint.... Guess another trip is in order..

OK, I saw these on Pinterest and fell in love. Such a great bit of whimsy and creepy all in one so of course I have to see if I can duplicate this but in black!

 

[Saki.Girl]

[Saki.Girl]

Still brain storming ideas

Saki Girl,
Thank you for hosting these crafting parties each month!
I know you have expressed that you are not rigid about any rules, and you just want some sharing and fun. So I hope it's OK if I share a few candle or lighting related things as a warm-up to whatever it is I a actually going to do for this month. LOL

Here's an idea I got off pinterest. I scored a bag full of old plastic Christmas candoliers at a yard sale for a $1. I turned them into creepy Halloween candles with hot glue and spray paint. Easy! Love this idea.

 

[Living Dead Girl 1031]

Those are beautiful Hilda! I'll have to make some of those, cheap and easy, my kinda prop!

 

[Saki.Girl]

Hilda those are Awsome love them !!

 

[printersdevil]

Great job, Hilda. I also have a small sack of those that a friend gave me. TFS.

 

[Hilda]

Here's another recent project.
I am not as much a crafter or prop builder as I am into tinkering. (Where I take found objects and marry them together into creepy decor.)
I took a flea market find candle stand, added a bit more grunge to it, with a clearance-sale-score sprig of spanish moss, and an LED candle with some added hot glue drips and a tad of antiquing.
Perfect in my Witches Kitchen.

 

[Paint It Black]

Hilda's project reminds me a little of one I did last year, after finding these white candelabra at a yard sale.

 

[Hilda]

Too cute PIB!! Love it!
