Well done. I actually like what you've created more than the current collection of romantic spooky at Michael's.

I decorate for fall in a traditional cozy feel. I then add my spooky Halloween decorations with a lot of witches , haunted houses and spiders. These pieces would give mine an extra boost. Just love it.

Dark Witchy-Like (NOT "Dark"-Bad, but "Dark" as Unknown or Hidden) Elaborate Journal? Like maybe a Beautiful "Brandy-Style Book Of Shadows?!?" I can't imagine what Masterpiece you'd come up with if you decided to either Alter a Book, or Create & Bind Your own Book... Making it like a BOS... Either Mysterious Book, Found in the deep dark Woods, full of Magical Goodness... OR.... A Dark, Elegant, Classic, Gothic, but still Glamerous tupe of Book that Is either fully embellished, or partially embelluahed; Leaving lots of room for (SOMEONE LIKE ME!!!) To Journal in!!! LOL!

@@MakingItMyOwn E6000: clean off glue on the neck, rub Vaseline inside the cap and around the neck of the tube, put some dry rice in a baggy (plastic), put the tube inside, squeeze out the air, store in your freezer. When u take it out to use there maybe a little dry glue plug in the top, just pluck it out, glue should be good behind the dry plug of glue. This isn’t a 100% fix but it does help me to get a lot more use. 😊 Humidity and moisture r e6000 s demise. 😊 Kelley from North Carolina.

After I open any tubes of glue I tighten the top as much as I an then put the tube / tubes into a good zip lock baggy, get as much air as possible out and seal it tight - so far this is the best way to keep the glue easy and fluid for quite some time

Air in the tube is the culprit. After I am finished with my E6000 I always wipe off the tip with a alcohol pad, smear a dab of petroleum jelly around the tip to keep that cap from locking. I also put a small nail down into the tip and I store it upside down in a small jar...I like to use a small, taller olive jar 😊

Same with me. I'd like to figure another way besides the skeleton hands to use with the frame and flowers. I love that paper. For me, I'd make it more fall coloring, deep browns, golds , etc. Im still thinking. Brandy yours is beautiful if you are a Spooky, type. My x-daughter-in-law would jump on it in a flash sec. I do love the owl an glass candle holder for the proper decor. I'd truly love to see something similar in more Fall /Autumn colors. Im going to find my frame and hold onto it.

Tip/Suggestion: To make bones look aged, you can just start with the antiquing wax at the beginning as long as the bones aren't an abnormal colour like bright pink. Cover your bones with the wax, wait until it's tacky, then pat off. Reapply as necessary especially around joints. Aged bones have a more brownish look for the most part unless they've been bleached.

These are wonderful. I absolutely love this Era- the Victorian/Gothic Era more than any other time period. This candle holder and frame just make me feel that I am with Sherlock Holmes in his parlor on a chilly rainy evening, gas lanterns glowing and a fire in the hearth. 💜 I'm going to look for a frame like this. I was thinking, if you don't have skeleton arms, maybe you can place a silhouette of a raven with flowers still underneath. Silhouettes were so popular in Victorian times! 🤗

I got that wrapping paper for my Dad's birthday in July. He's a very quiet man and doesn't like all the colors and crazy, he's a plain John. And they don't have any other options for guys wrapping paper lol.i think it's gorgeous paper. That frame is absolutely stunning. That paint definitely made it look aged bronze like. Deco art had this stuff in a jar that is called metallic lustre and it's really cool. It's a dry paste kind of, so you can use it how it comes or you can take a chunk and add any amount of water to make a paint or wash and you can apply it however. It never will dry out bc you just add a bit of water if it gets dry and you have the original texture again. I think if you were to let it dry out completely you could crumble it up and grind it down to have a dust. It's awesome. Lovely music choice btw.😊
