Altered Birdhouse With Eyeball Flowers


Hello crafty friends
I am back with a Halloween make  that has a creepy weird vibe to it. I wanted to create something i could use as a decoration so i altered this mdf birdhouse. 


I started off by painting every piece with gesso and then a mix of orange and red acrylic paints. I blended the colours together  and left it to dry.


I then assembled it and dyed white paper flowers with Brusho Crystal Powders. I added a little of the brusho powder to the center of the flower and spritzed with water until it had spread out across the flowers.


I then added the faux spider web across the top and front because i wanted to make it look more haunted. 


I then glued glass eye cabochons and skull beads to the flower centers because you can never have too many creepy embellishments in your collection.  I finished off the project by placing  a set of battery powered lights  inside the bird house. You can pick them up in the local pound shops.


If you haven't run for the hills already, Thank you for visiting.
