Halloween Spell Book {part 3}

I  L.O.V.E. how this book turned out for so many reasons!  Mainly because I was trying to use supplies I already had and didn't know exactly where I was going with it.  Now I have another Halloween prop to contribute to the Halloween Party!

Supplies you'll need:

Thrift Store Book * Brown Paper Bag * Mod Podge

What to do:

Add character to your book spine by adding layers of hot glue

• Crinkle up the brown paper bag and tear it into pieces
• Using Mod Podge, cover the book with the crinkled paper bag

• Glue the front side of the magazine eye (or the flat side of the marble)
• Attach the front side of the glued image to the flat side of the marble
• Glue the marble eyes to the front of your book

• Surround the marble eyes with crinkled brown paper bag to give them a more finished look
• To create the bloody tears, drip layers of hot glue (blow on them to cool in between layers)
• Paint the dried {hot} glue with red paint

Marble Magnets

What you'll need:

• Flat marbles (I found the large flat marbles at the dollar store - the smaller flat marbles I found at Hobby Lobby)
• Clear glue
• Hole punches (it is best that the punch is slightly smaller then the marble as you won't want any over hang)
• Magnets
• Magazine pages/scrapbook paper
  

What to do:

• Glue the front side of the image (or the flat side of the marble)
• Attach the front side of the glued image to the flat side of the marble
• Let dry 
• Attach magnet to the back side of the marble

I cut these turtles out of a beauty magazine - they are from an eye shadow advertisement  

 

I found this metal gift card holder at the Dollar Store - an Altoids box would work too

I used a Starbucks gum tin to package my small magnets
