I wanted to share my altered Halloween coffin I made for my swap partner with http://creatingthecraftylife.com/. I was pleased with how it came out that I will have to make one for me also.
I bought the coffins at Michael's last year when they went on sale for like pennies (bought like 9). Of course, you can still get them but they will cost you I think $2.99 or something like that.
It was really fun doing it. I just painted, crackled it, covered the inside with red felt and the bottom too. I made a mini coffin shape tag album to go inside it (I mean you can only put so much in the coffin anyway before it burst). LOL. I added embellishments to the outside of it. The best way for you to have a vision is to show you the results. :)
Here is my altered coffin for swap.

Howdy Jackie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blogs. We are both in the CCL group. I am really excited about crafting. I am a newbie and need all the help I can get. I don't know what glues to use where and so much more.
But, I know I will have fun as I learn.
I kind of feel sorry for the ladies that may get my swap items, cause of my newness, but I hope they understand too.
Take care
