When thinking about DOTD, a thought came in to my mine.
Candles, we do burn the candles remembering the love ones
and take the candles to the cemetery at holidays
- so I made a altered candle stick.
and take the candles to the cemetery at holidays
- so I made a altered candle stick.
Found a grey wooden candle stick on a sale basket at supermarket
and start working on it...
The round pieces are flattened bottle caps and the sugarskulls
are stamps from Lost Coast Design, I embossed the mini skulls
on black paper using cold embossing powder.
I painted, sprayed and used Inka Gold on this,
Flowers, butterflies and chain are all
from my stash, I also used some pits and pieces
from an old belt I found from the flee market.
