Halloween gift set

Good day,

My sister's birthday is Halloween and she is a big fan

 of decorating for the holiday

 as well so every year I create some decor for her. 

I found the tutorial for the glasses on pinterest and decided to give it a try.  

You can find the link here 

I started by spraying some Rust-oleum Frosted glass, 

blocking off about an 1/2 inch with tape

at the top to keep it clear.  I ten painting the rest with black gesso.

To add a bit of weight and texture I used some Paperclay with an IOD mold, 

when dry coved it with black gesso.   

I purchaed a halloween skeleton and used the hands, 

which i glued to the glasses with some strong glue ( E6000). 

 Then came the dry brushing with white paint.

For the finish touch I also used some Prime Metallique wax in old silver 

The skeleton head is a glass bottle, which I did the same technique as the glasses

except for the Frosted glass.  I applied several coats of black gesso creating texture

with the paint brush .

For the hat, it has layers of tissue paper for texture, 

I added some feathers, thread, ribbon

and a jewel spider

I am so loving Mix media and will have a lot more stuff coming up
