Handmade Dia De Los Muertos sugar skull cribset

Just finished the first this afternoon - hand stitching every inch of it old school squatter style (dental floss & booze). Here's set 1 - Dia De Los Muertos sugar skulls. Set 2 commences when I no longer loathe the idea of hand stitching.

Fluffy creatures is not quite our style. I've always liked the Adams-esque nursery theme from the movies. :) Looks great! Zachary (5) Draven (2) and another precious baby in December

You know, I totally considered a knife mobile, too. Not for long, mind, and DH wanted no part of it, but I certainly did. Instead, we decorated his room with bones, creepy art done by friends & bits of metal from a scrapyard. Well out of reach, naturally.

Here's a shot of a monster made of random bones found on hikes by our friend in CA.

I have a pretty weak stomach now that you mention it, but I'd love to just buy one and hang it up on my wall!

Well, I an put you in touch with my friend who made it (she sells all kinds of art) but I'm not sure what she has in the way of bones on hand. It may take a couple more months of hiking for her to make another. Let me know.

Soon as I get around to putting it on the bed (its been dreadfully hot lately, and this bedding is pretty warm, so that may not happen for a while) I will post photos!
