Default Creepy Xmas gift box
If you guys remember. Every year our NJ Make and Take has an annual Secret Santa gift exchange. Last year I did the Latex Santa skin box. This year with the help of Pumpkinrot I created a creepy ghoul gift box using paper mache.





Here is the link to the whole album

Nice job again Jeff! Kenny really liked it. Did you paper mache over a skull? I have to do a bigger version of this for my Halloween display. Also love the barbed wire on it.

Cool! That effect would be really neat as a 'wall of lost souls' type thing.

Very cool! The wire is certainly a great touch! That gift box is a gift all by itself.

Thanks!! I said I was going to calm down this year but the idea just came to me. I always wanted to challenge myself and I never worked with paper mache. I had studied Spooyblues technique on creating a paper mache mold from a bucky skull. Duct taped it to the box and emailed Pumpkinrot and he shared his wrinkled/textured look and I applied it to the box.

Unlike most gift boxes, that's a box you'd never want to throw away. Pagan is right - it's a gift all by itself
