We made a Halloween Spellbook with a MOVING EYE!

[@WickedMakers]

Thanks for watching! All the materials are listed in the video description, including where to get the Animated Eye video so you can make your own DIY Spellbook!

[@miiyuzsq]

This was amazing! Nice job, guys!

[@bloxyygwen]

Like the hocus pocus shirt!! I’m subbed btw

[@nobleharvey9935]

I use tissue paper to line wrapped gifts 🎁 and bagged ones sticking out. I thought that was the only way to do it right... now I add fairy lights too! Am I missing something? Thanks for the video! Love it. I have to make this one! And maybe more... lol!

[@daviddeane3163]

That's a really good idea! I'm gonna have to try that. Might I suggest weathering the pages with coffee or tea to add a more realistic aged look rather than the random paint splotches. The coffee/tea will add the aged look of paper and the moisture should cause the pages to look well used. Don't know if this will actually work, just came to me as I was watching the video just now. You guys do some really neat things, been watching y'all for a while. Keep up the great work!

[@Incredible43]

This is so awesome you guys! Can't wait to try this out. 💜💀💜

[@rosehawke2577]

I ALWAYS put tissue paper in a gift box, especially with clothing. It's much more elegant than just tossing the gift in there, taping some paper on the outside and calling it done.

[@WickedMakers]

😄😄 touché

[@spicybeantofu]

I've seen it mostly used in gift bags to kinda fill out the bag and cover the gift.

Wow, wow, wow! I attempted a similar idea last year, except with an animatronic eyeball, but I couldn’t get the mechanics to work. This is a great alternative! If you don’t want to use a real book, the cardboard book boxes craft stores work great. I covered mine in damask peel and stick wallpaper, fabric tape for the binding, and gold foil letters from my crafty neighbor’s cricut.

[@WhiteOutify]

I just love how the "most replayed" part of the video is the doggos :3

[@RuthlessMojo]

Really nice job with this. This reminds me of the necronomicon from the Evil Dead series. That book had a moving mouth. You could do that with a small servo and a 3d printed mouth. It could be activated by a pressure switch that activates when you touch it. The same principle could be used to create blinking eyelids for your book of spells.

[@WickedMakers]

Yesssss. Evil Dead series is Jays fave.

[@DD47N1]

I aspire to have your imaginations! This was too cool! And loved seeing your fur-ish babies (don't want to make kitty feel self-conscious)! LOL

[@WickedMakers]

Thank you!!! They love being in videos 😄

[@Brandywine6969]

That is so cute. I'm such a sucker for books/back to school/office supply stuff and Halloween. This is the perfect blend of all of them. I wonder if scientists ever did find out why some paintings have eyes that seem to follow you wherever you go. I bet the idea behind this project could be used that way too with one of the picture frames.

[@mankysalad350]

The eyes will appear to follow you around the room if the subject is looking directly at the artist/viewer because paintings are 2d images. So no matter where you are you'll always see the same image, just a bit narrower if you're off to the side.

[@WickedMakers]

Thank you!!

[@ThomasSturm]

The 2-d thing is likely the case for paintings. But for a more dramatic effect one can do basically the same thing as a following bust. That is paint a concave sphere like an eye and put it behind the eyelid; where the phone is here. The angle and assumptions of depth will create the illusion the eyeball is following you.

[@reginafetty6374]

What a great idea for the moving eyeball. Great job!

[@WickedMakers]

Thanks!!

[@thedoubleboiler6971]

I never thought of using a repurpose store for crafts. That is a great idea! Omg! Using a magnifying glass for the eye is genius!

The smallest digital picture frame that I found was 5 inch’s on Amazon I think it will work fine……this is a great idea because my initial idea was to hook up a small display to an Arduino board…which I have absolutely no idea how to do…..I just know it can be done. The digital picture frame idea is definitely easier…and smarter…thank you. Should I do anything extra to avoid it from overheating?

What a nice Goodwill store you guys have, I'm jealous. The spell book turned out fantastic, the imagination on you two, impressive. My mom started a Christmas tradition of wrapping my sister's Christmas gifts from Santa in red and mine in green TISSUE PAPER. Sometimes there would be 6-7 layers of paper so we couldn't see through, good old mom. So of course we did the same with our kids, and now they are doing the same with their kids, same colors.
