Currently my college friend Kim is visiting us for the week. It's been really nice having someone else here while hubby is away. Time just passes by much quicker when you're having fun with a friend.
And just how have we been having fun? Well, we've been playing with Chuck... and eating... and watching tv... and crafting... a lot... a
whole lot... Halloween and Dia De Los Muertos are right around the corner, so all of our crafts have been centered around those two holidays.
I'm currently on a sugar skull kick. I just love the way they look. So when I was staring at an old milk jug the other day, an idea dawned on me. Ding! Why not use them to make some sugar skull luminaries? So tada, here's what I came up with:
I'd seen tons of posts for ghost milk jug luminaries for awhile, so I figured this was a nice twist on that craft. It uses skulls and colorful lights instead of ghost faces and white lights. I just love how this little guy turned out. He's so cute and smiley... and gosh darn it, I've just got a big ol' soft soft for any craft that involves
twinkly, colorful lights.
