craftgrrl | A load of Crafts to share!

EDIT: Since Photobucket seems to think that when I tell it to resize something that I am actually just kidding, and in order to save everybody's serves/computer from exploding I have edited this post's photo count WAY down.

I have Step-by-step photo tutorials for most of these and if there is enough interest in certain ones I can do separate posts for each thing. Sorry about the issues!

This post contains a LOT of crafts. All the things that I have done over the past several of months some dating back to Halloween and earlier. I have tried to write a little something for/about each thing but if you have questions feel free to ask!

These are list in no particular order (other than the order that they appear in my photo bucket). Enjoy and please FEEDBACK is like crafter chocolate! =D

This first craft is a Halloween Candelabra. It was inspired by a similar item that a friend and I saw in a store window. The inspiration item was for sale for around $60! All tolled I spent about $15 on supplies for my version.

This was the inspiration item.

And here is my version. The finished product. A couple of these shots are from the Halloween party where it was used as a decoration.

a few detail close-ups.

The same store also had a glitter-moon hanging decoration.

These were my versions. Unfortunately there photos where taken at the party as I forget to take photos of them before hand.

The Skeleton Moon

Sparkling Vampire Bat (OH! Perhaps he's one of those Twilight Vamps!)

I had these hand made picture frame things laying about from another project that ended up being scraped (something for one of my sister's children's rooms that ended up going another way) so I figured that I would do something useful with them. This was what I did. The general idea would work with pretty much any frame and it's really simple so that make this a really cool crafting project!

I used this tutorial for the cover making method of this book. It was really easy and a lot of fun!

I used the same method to decorate the box as I used on the hallow book above.

*no step-by-step

I actually made these as a gift for a friend several years ago but I can recall ever actually postig the photos anywhere.

Reaver Weapons, complete with real blood! Paint blending is a real bitca! x_x
