witch's kitchen update

Well I'm just going to say it... This Is Fun!!

I have been working on my witch's kitchen in my spare time for two weeks now.  I have some fun accessories that I made out of clay and painted, I have my funkin and as of today I have a floor and lights!   I made the faux stone floor from THIS tutorial.  The clay things I just made from scratch.  The chandelier was made following THIS tutorial.  I gave my funkin the aged look using THIS tutorial.  Not that I couldn't have come up with versions and methods myself but this internet thing is really helpful.  I'm probably going to reach our data limit for the first time in months!  Every little bit of progress on this pumpkin diorama tickles me because my ideas are coming to light.

Now I am thinking about the fireplace and furniture and base with greenery.  It is all so much fun and I love having a project.  Even though I have help from the web world this makes me feel like an artist in some way.

Mice, eyeballs, dragon eggs, unicorn horns... goodness.

I love these pumpkins.

Eyeball for the potion book.

Leather from Barb :)

I literally sat making this stuff for about 5 hours.

I love the kitty with sparkle green eyes.

This pumpkin was the easiest thing to carve.  I used a fingernail file around the opening to smooth it out.

 

 Much better after detailed.

I have since added the little candles I made to the chandelier.  It was gold but I spray painted it satin black.  This little led puts out an OK amount of light.  Makes me possibly want to cut a window or maybe light up the fire in the fire place.

I am really happy with the floor.  I was going to go with wood but as fate had it I chose this.
