Here are two additions to my Apothecary Cabinet display - - a cauldron and a tin. The cauldron is a glass votive candle holder picked up at the 99 cent store. (an idea from my daughter) I used black alcohol ink and gold Rub and Buff to color it and added gold stickers. I dyed spider webbing with green alcohol ink as Laura did in her tutorial. Glued some wobbly eyeballs to it and a black bird to the rim. This one started out life as a cardinal. I should have bought more of the little black crows when I first started this project. The Deadly Nightshade tin was one out of my "collection" of tins. Glad I have a couple of cans of spray paints out in the garage. The tin was blue - I sprayed it with gold, then slightly distressed it with a red ink pad. I used some of the flowers and leaves on the top that I had painted earlier -- added a dot of orange to the centers and a coat of orange glitter acrylic. This bird was originally a white dove from the wedding aisle at Micheal's. I tried NOT to buy more "stuff", but, ended up ordering a few things from Alpha Stamps -- I just did not have anything to duplicate the leafy ribbon or some of the neat papers. I know this is going to be an ongoing project for some time to come !!!!!
