First! The costume contest submissions so far have been AMAZING! Thank you to everyone that is participating :))
To get into the spooky mood, Let's meet in the parlor this Sunday night for an eerie and fun craft-a-long! We'll be making our very own Swamp Bog table centerpieces!
What you'll want:
A clear glass bowl
Water
A Mist Maker or Dry Ice
A Colored light

Hot glue gun
A Skeletal hand and a clear glass or plastic plate that can sit flat inside the bottom of your bowl (We'll be fusing the the hand to the plate and it will be sticking palm up towards the sky)
A foam floral ring (Large enough to rest outside your glass bowl)

Artificial swamp foliage ,ferns, calla lilies, tall grasses, lily pads, spanish moss, mushrooms etc
Craft store moss
Eerie looking found dead branches (No bigger than two feet tall)
Maybe a little mud?
Optional: Lifesize toads, you can make these yourself or buy model toads and paint them to your liking
Side note: I'll be painting a lot of these to look creepier beforehand. In the livestream, we'll be working on assembly :D
I can't wait to see you!

Would a plastic bowl be fine?
