Dia de los Muertos


Here's what I've been up to lately.  Found a great idea in the latest issue of Cloth, Paper, Scissors telling how to create calacas from cake toppers.  I used my daughter's plastic figurines that she got from McDonald's when she was little.  The cool thing about some of them is that they twirl around when you move them.  I cut off the heads and added skulls that I got at the local dollar store, then painted with acrylics and added (of course) glitter glue embellishments.  Such fun to make!
