I wonder if you could use a dremel tool and a set of LED string lights to make a whole lighted string of these with the light inside the skulls. lisamarlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13395636664574812409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-47925515818370765912017-10-05T12:37:46.694-04:002017-10-05T12:37:46.694-04:00This craft isn't as quick, but it's pretty...This craft isn't as quick, but it's pretty straightforward if you want a slightly creepier dead fairy: http://www.shadowmanor.com/blog/?page_id=4666Cobwebshttp://www.shadowmanor.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-62739605344265112342017-10-04T17:18:06.995-04:002017-10-04T17:18:06.995-04:00Hi Jen!

But, for some reason, I'm okay with it in horror movies. (Classic ones, like Halloween and Friday the 13th, not the new horror porn movies, like the Saw franchise!)Cowgirl68https://www.blogger.com/profile/03345602558147085951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-75752372688500644222017-10-02T08:59:37.983-04:002017-10-02T08:59:37.983-04:00Very nice. :) I have no tolerance for gore or jump...Very nice. :) I have no tolerance for gore or jump scares either. So I've gravitated toward the Gothic side: haunted houses, mist-shrouded graveyards, classic monsters, ghosts, skeletons/skulls and ravens. I try to keep the spookiness around WDW Haunted Mansion levels. Then it's fun without the frights and grossness.

There’s a whole list of fictional books I’ve been dying to make for a shelf in my library (like A History of Magic, The Red Book of Westmarch, etc.) but I can’t figure out how to make them look believable.
