Hallowe'en is creeping up, I can feel it in the air! Actually, it is still suffocatingly hot here so maybe it's just wishful thinking. But that doesn't mean Hallowe'en crafting has to wait! I made a Potions cabinet from a 4" x 4" Storage Hutch from Alpha Stamps, but left off the top scalloped portion and used it by itself vs. attaching it to a set of drawers. So maybe it is more like a Potions cubby. Whatever it is, it held a whole bunch of stuff!
All of the bottles were aged with paints and ink then filled with various herbs or ingredients like moss, glitter, and micro beads. Many of the books were made with a collage sheets and small signatures of paper. Among the books of magic there's a cookbook for conjuring up some biscuits...
It's difficult to see, but there's a face in the globe on the top shelf and the wee metal creamer is soooo small!
I managed to squeeze in nearly every glass container, jar, dollhouse bottle, and vial in my stash, all in that 4" x 4" space!
Finally, here is a picture stolen from the recipient that gives you an idea of the size, along with the grumpy mandrake I sent her. And yes, he is wearing a Santa hat.
Hooray for Hallowe'en crafting!
