Cool Halloween Craft - Lady of the Night

Ok, put this on your yard sale wish list. Keep your eyes peeled for prints of old portraits. I did and Halloween inspiration struck! Snap up as many of these as you can and make your own fanciful gallery.


To make your own Lady of the Night, follow these super-easy instructions. 
First, you need black paint or a dark gray or even a gold, whatever you think will coordinate well with the painting. I used black mixed with a tiny bit of gold to make it not so stark. Next, draw a simple mask shape over the face of the portrait. Finally, paint your color in the lines and wha-la! You are done!

Here are the how-to photos. Took me less than 15 minutes.










Here she is, the perfect addition to my Halloween decorated kitchen.

Lady Raven now joins my first Lady of the Night, Madame Crow. Look for her in tomorrow's post casting her spellbinding gaze over our living room.
