Halloween Discussion Forums, Costumes, Horror!

I'll start posting pics of my Witch's Kitchen progress on here. I'm not putting it up on Myspace until I have it more or less finished. But for you all...here you go...

My collection of jars and bottles:



The two shrunken heads I did a few months ago, and underneath, two new heads that are currently drying. These will be for a jar of Garden Gnome Heads:




Chicken bones that I dried and bleached:



Apple peels, for a jar of Burned Heretic Skin:



Small plastic snakes, for Snake Oil:



These will be soaked and pushed all together for a jar of Sea Monster Embryos:



I don't know yet whether I might use these newts for something:



Cashews to be split in half, for Werewolf Claws:

Wow that's gonna look great. I'm looking forward to seeing it progress and come together You gonna do a cauldron of some sort I'd imagine?

A cauldron...d'oh... (slapping forehead) (scuttling off to ebay)

Nice. Use the newts!!

Thanks, RDM. I have to think of a really cool/fun name for what they would be for my witch's kitchen! Can't be Eye of Newt since it's the whole newt...hmmmmmmmm...

Did you find a cauldron Melanie?

OctoberChill, I haven't yet...just haven't found one I liked. But here's my WK progress. I also put it on Decorations. I'm not sure where to put it...

For a witch`s kitchen I would get fake goo and put it in the glass cups and vase`s and then get rubber snakes and spider webs put the spiders in the webs and put the snakes in the web to.I would put fake witch spell books and put them on the table like that. Then put fake skulls all over and make the table cloth black with some siper webs!!

I foundthis out last year. If you soak a regular hilighter marker(most colors will work) in your specimen jars overnight, then take the marker out right before you present them, the water will glow under black light.
I used several last year and it was a really cool effect.

It looks great, I especially loved those potion vessels. It think it would be awesome to serve cocktails in them

RIT brightner and whitener also glows under black light

Tonic water glows under black light.

And if you drink enough vodka tonics You too will be lit.

Andy should know, he's currently on his 5th vodka tonic.

On a related note, just read something interesting...

• Mountain Dew was intended to be a mixer for whiskey!
