I've finished a new 1920s Opium Den shadow box. This one is a bit different than my previous one. Here's the first one I did.
I went with the traditional flapper and a red and black design theme. Here's the new one.
I made my flapper a skeleton, with cute bob and flapper headband. I created a blue, silver and black design theme for the room. I was inspired by the peacock paper it just screamed 20s to me so the piece took of from there. I made the miniature candelier from some repurposed pieces, beads and clay. My flapper is clay with a clay and lace skirt and a glitter and sequined top. I also made a pipe from clay and a miniature hookah.
And I made another skeleton for a Day of the Dead shadow box. I also made her entire outfit from clay with some fabric accents. I made miniature saint candles as well. And if you look closely you will see her silver hoop earrings with a black and white bead on them.
My next big project that I've been wanting to do is a skeleton pirate shadow box. I need to find the right box it has to have enough room to create the scene I want to make. It must be from watching John Malkovich in Crossbones. :)
