Hi there folks!
Today, I am sharing how to Mod podge a ceramic skeleton head.
I bought the skeleton head at Michaels and while I was there I noticed this cool
Halloween special mod podge paper.
I thought hmmmm…
I have a plan for this head.
He is actually pretty cool plain too.
But nawwww…why be plain when you don’t have to be.
I trimmed up the paper in all different sizes first.
Then I applied the mod podge in sections of the skull.
I also applied mod podge to the back of the pieces of cut paper as I went along.
I used a satin mod podge for this one.
I also smoothed out most of the crinkles with my finger.
My fingers had a skin peel when done, lol.
I love Halloween decorating and have a few upcoming things to share you may like.
Last year I had fun as well and I try to switch up from year to year.
and I love a good Spooky tablescape. Hopefully I can create one this year as well.
As you can see I love a good skull!
Here are some upcoming Halloween ideas for you I will be sharing here shortly.
I can only give you a peek in the meantime.
There will be Halloween vignettes
and of course a Spooky Halloween porch to come.
In the meantime if you like to check out any of last years Spookville around here
