They are cheap Dollar store plastic skulls that have had paper mache over them and the guy in the middle thick paper mache glue (flour and water) and moss then you have to let them dry 100% about a week I left the guy in the middle and then have fun painting them up.
So here's my pull out I'm trying to make a funky pumpkin not sure how he will turn out but I'm hoping ok and this way I can slowly work up the layers on him and let it dry out really good. The fake knifes have been spray painted and I'm debating on if they should be rusty or not would look great for a Homemade butcher shop for my front porch would be fun
Congrats to my lucky Winner who is ...

I have no experience (thankfully) but I would say those skulls are looking very real, how amazing! They are pretty scary...added to the big old knives..yep, you sure willhave a 'butcher' shop for a porch! You're very patient!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'd be happy with three skulls sitting on my desk! Plus a knife! How about some blood drops on the knife...
ReplyDeleteHave a good week,

ReplyDeleteWhoa, those skulls are way to cool! Can't wait to see what you do with the pumpkin as well. Have a happy week! zsuzsa @ InkyDinkyDoodle
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Nikki! I'm heading out now but I'll email you tomorrow. Congrats to all the winners! Your skulls are very creepy! Yes, very creepy!
ReplyDeleteHi Nikki, you're so kind and will go and have a look at the Limited Runs when I've done a bit more visiting Oh! and I had better hang out the washing before it decides to rain Lol! You are a very generous lady.
ReplyDeleteI would also like to thank you for joining my followers, only ten more and I will get up to the Hundred! It's been a bit slow but sure I will get there. Have a lovely WOYWW and happy crafting, Angela x 36
Those skulls are fantastic! Love what you have done with them. We never have anything remotely like that here. Did they come with the teeth or did you put those in yourself? You have made a smashing job of them, hope the pumpkin comes out as well for you.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing all your halloween makes.
Hugs, Neet 15 xx
Not into skulls, but they are nice. ?? Do you call skulls nice? LOL Will you show us the pumpkin when you are done? Happy WOYWW! #50
ReplyDeleteThose skulls look amazing! Great idea to add extra creepiness to store bought skulls and I would definitely go for a grungey rusty effect on the knives. Have fun :o) Annie C #43
ReplyDeleteHi Nicki, and thanks for visiting. mmmmm not sure I could do skulls either.. Halloween isn't a big thing here in Australia...so the thought of a butchers shop on the front verandah is not on my todo list....but enjoy - you sound like you sure have loads of scary fun. Cheers RobynO#29
ReplyDeleteHi, I enjoyed my visit to your blog, and thanks for looking at mine. Those skulls made me smill, they are just brilliant
ReplyDeleteJill
Oh my! I think a homemade butcher shop on your front porch is perfectly terrifying! Good luck! Those skulls are wonderfully creepy.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW!
