Hi Guys
LTNS, Real life is taking it's toll on me but I'm fighting back..just in case you missed it Joann Swanson did a great tutorial for Halloween, but being who I am (the woman who can't draw a straight line is dangerous with sharp objects) I missed a page so my bookcase did not come out looking like hers (which is ok cause it's supposed to be spooky right and if I followed her exactly I wouldn't learn anything would I?)
so here it is, my bookcase and table , I even made some printie books but I think I'm going to add mini food to my Vignette instead of the black caldron thingy .. .. I dunno about cutting off the skeletons feet..that just seems cruel but I should put a dress on her...yea I know you wanna see:
well that's what mine looks like because:
I didnt have beads for the table legs (drive all the way to town in the middle of the night for beads..don't think so) I used straws that I reinforced with toothpicks, also I used cardboard that i had because driving all the way to town for matboard..really? no
you can see all the books I made, there are more I just didn't show them some are from Joann some are from Jims ... I need to make the dress and hat for the skelly....I can't sew to save my life..maybe I can glue it?
Joann used a stone floor...Im using a wood floor when you do these tutorials you can color outside the lines a bit (its still the same Vignette only it's my special one) I'll show what it looks like when it's finished, I'm liking this making furniture from stuff..it's awesome you should try it :)
have a great week and Happy Halloween
Love
Marisa :)

these skeltons look like Rockettes doing high kicks..I didn't plan that they did it on their own, silly girls
