This year I have made so little for Hallowe'en I'm getting withdrawal symptoms! With one thing and another I've had no time but I have managed to make this candlestick.
He started life as a ceramic money box............I painted it with several layers adding extra to the teeth and eyes..........................
.......gave him a hat made from a little flan case and a cream horn tin................with painted lace, feathers and crystals added around and underneath............
.........on top of the candlestick is a hook thingy that came with a dress form................and hanging from it are dolls arms....of course......every self respecting Hallowe'en candle stick needs hanging arms!
......more little skulls on a wire fence around the bottom............................
The skull piece just sits on top of the candle stick so it can be removed and a candle added!
HAPPY HALLOWE'EN!!

love the dolls arms! It does amuse me thinking of what your neighbours must think when they pop round for a cuppa :)
absolutely brilliant Sue. love those eyeballs!
Excellent! You never cease to amaze me.
Amazing..still watching the eyes of the skull....creepy (:o)
This is fantastic Sue. There's so much work gone into it.
That scared me............lovey scary stuff!
I have a whole necklace of skulls sitting here for you! (they must be a couple of inches in height, bizarre!) I spotted them in Manchester the other day :) You can indulge in halloween-ness to your heart's content once the kitchen's done lol.
ps fab candlestick, very you!
Happy Halloween Sue.
Your work is excellent. So fun and creppy stuff. Unbelievable.
do love it Sue.... but what a waste of a cream horn cake maker thingy!!!!!! xxx
wow you may not have done much but what you did is amazing, I love it
simply wonderful!!
Too spooky for me... But totally your style. If I would encounter that guy sitting on my nightstand I would scream my head of. But maybe that would be your ultimate goal... ;o)))) Very fitting for Haloween and scary as hell... Well done!
Ok I'm trying again as spell check massacred my comment!
Wow! That is über spooky :)
I love the arms. At first glance I thought they were chili peppers - and that would work well too for the Day of the Dead ....
Happy Halloween :)
