Halloween Dome Wonka style

Here it is, the last of the domes... for now.😏

This dome took some time to put together. There were a lot of elements that required dry time.

This spooky candy shop is for the 7-year-old granddaughter. She not only loves candy but Willy Wonka, too!

I have to admit the list of materials is crazy long but the result was worth it.

This is side one of the globe vignette with the lights on.

It is actually the back side of a vignette box that was painted with Distress Paint and Crayons and was distressed with Distress Crackle Texture Paste.  The doorway was made with chipboard pieces covered with Distress woodgrain card stock. The skeleton was stamped and fussy cut from watercolor paper. 

Here is a better look with more light.

The bottle brush tree was colored with Halloween 2022 Distress Mica Sprays. The small jar came from Family Dollar and is filled with some clear baubles and google eyes that I had in my stash.

The warning sign and candy are Tim Holtz Idea-ology products.

The candy shop sign I lettered.

Now for side two.

This is the candy shop, inside. I added a chipboard shelf to the vignette box. The "doily" is made with the Sizzix Crochet die.

The book introduces the Wonka connection. I filled the bottom of the Jack-o-lantern with bubble wrap to take up space, then filled the top with candy corn and Halloween confections.

On the bottom shelf a cauldron full of bubbles, colored with alcohol ink and "sugared" with glitter, spills over. The ultimate Everlasting Gobstoppers! Tucked in the back is THE golden ticket! 

The hardest part of making these are where and how to place the lights. It takes a good amount of pre-planning and patience to get everything where you want it.

Below is a picture of the candy shelf side with the lights on.

A Witches Dome

Hello there. Welcome to Creative Juice, and thank you for stopping by.

These domes are addictive! If you saw my previous post you know my dome-making started with learning to make little books from Tami Bastiaans (@playswellwithpaper). As always, I got carried away and made so many I needed to use them!

This dome is for my 9-year-old granddaughter. She is a big fan of Hocus Pocus, thus the witch theme for her.  The witch has her book of spells nearby.

I made the witch using 4 layers of heavy black cardstock and one layer of watercolor paper. This makes her sturdy enough to stand, with her feet between 2 layers of chipboard strips to make a stand.

I left the bubbles uncolored as I was using the green mini lights.

    

On the back side of the witch, there is a stick from my yard that had some natural lichen. I added some moss and leaf die cuts to cover a little of the wire from the lights.

I painted a small pumpkin with Distress Paints Antique Linen, Bundled Sage and some Distress Crayons rubbed on to grunge it up a bit.

I used several colored mosses on the "floor" of the dome to create a forest floor effect.

To the left of the tree is a skull that I drilled out so the eyes would glow.
