I love making my own decorations for Christmas, Halloween and Easter! I get a lot of inspiration from Pinterest, Dollar Tree, Hobby Lobby, Grandin Road and other places like those! I also get a lot of inspiration from Disney, Tim Burton and Dr Seuss. I love the whimsical style and I also like to combine vintage and modern.

So were you able to get that glow in the dark glue? I meant to ask last video, but I've been patiently waiting for that video! 😬 🖤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦇

[@TheSecretCraftRoom]

It ran out before I had a chance to order it.. but I ordered glow in the dark paint instead and I am going to see if that works. I hope to have that video finished this month! 😃

[@marthatownsend7702]

[@She.Follows.The.Sun.]

They look like cursed objects in a good way

[@lauriewelsh8554]

clever idea. I wish, when you do things like the candle and the tin foil you angled the camera a little better. I enjoy your makes I just miss some of the technique. Your technique and ideas are interesting. thank you.

[@TheSecretCraftRoom]

Thank you! Yes I know that I get out frame sometimes. I am trying to work on that, and I am also looking into ways to change the angle 😊

[@Sacgirl03]

These are very cool. Where do you get the cardboard you use?

[@TheSecretCraftRoom]

It's from moving boxes 😊
