Happy Halloween & Skull Votive Candle

My Crayons inspired a last minute craft project.

Skull Votive Candle

They were so freaked (in a good way) out by the MRI images I shared with them. Previously, I had looked at those films with both relief (I didn't have anything wrong!) and curiosity. The Crayons saw skulls! Scary, spooky skulls!

Ahh ha! I had been looking for an opportunity to use this tutorial for months! I had the votive holder, the clear contact paper and a photo copy of the MRI. It was an easy peasy ten minutes! Next year I plan to make a dozen to stand guard on my table.

I hope you had some spooky fun today too!

  2. That's a great idea! I work in a radiology dept. and have never thought of doing something like that. Of course, everything is electronic so we rarely see films, but I'm sure there are still some floating around.
