So this weekend I was worked on my second shop of the Street
Shops. I know a long while back I posted
pictures of the other shop but this one is the potion shop. If you would like
to see a larger version of the photo please give it a poke with the mouse. The interior walls of this kit were fun to
make and a little messy. After sealing the walls with primer I smeared tacky
glue and added tissue paper. I think I got more depth/texture in the walls this
way and when I painted them I did it in many layers of watered down colors. In
the bottom photo I made a rack from scrap wood and wire to hang all the drying
plant material that I conveniently found in the back yard. A lot of the non-glass
jars are made by me from paper clay including the pumpkins. The scrolls and books
are also pieces of scrapbook paper or card stock that I cut, stained, shaped
and painted. The small bookcase and cabinet with doors are Michael hutches; the
one with doors was broken at the bottom so I cut that part off and aged to look
older. The old lady/witch was a birthday
gift made by my mom a few years back. I’ll take close-up of her and the front
of the shop when it’s nicer outside to get better light. There you will be able
to see the straw broom and the mouse someone partially turned into a cup. The
poor dear, that witch really needs to put that mouse back.
