Poison Jar

I am not quite sure why, but I love to decorate for Halloween.  I even like skull decorations, as long a they aren't gruesome.  I found a really cool jar when I was out thrifting and had to make something new for Halloween this year.





What you will need:
Glass jar
Paint
Embellishments - I used skull rings
E6000
Brillo pads





First, I spray painted the jar, lid & skulls black.




After the bottle was dry, I cut the skull rings apart so just the skull was left, dabbed on some E6000, and attached them to the bottle.







I wanted the jar to have some depth, so I sprayed the black bottle with a layer of my favorite silver paint.



After it was dry, I used a brillo pad to rough it up.



Here it is when it was finished!


What are you creating for Halloween?




Thanks so much for stopping by!

  15. Their scheme, their play against the 1xbet casino, was perhaps too sophisticated to drag off, Grosjean would later concede. Regardless of the variation you choose to play, the fundamental premise stays the same. Place bets on the place you suppose the ball will land on the spinning wheel. They design the studio space, rent the dealers, and choose the dealer’s uniform.
