I’m a huge dork, but you already knew that. When I saw these awesome plaster skulls for sale at Michael’s the first idea that came to mind was, “OMG- David Bowie face paint.”
This project is 100% just for fun. Those are sometimes the best kind, huh?
I don’t have a ton of Halloween decorations yet, so maybe this will be the start of a new collection? I want to become one of those old ladies with a bunch of Tupperware containers full of decor for every single holiday. Yes, that’s a good goal. 😀 Happy Saturday to you! xo. Elsie
P.S. Our friend Laura made some awesome bookends with this very same skull. They’re pretty much the coolest thing ever. Don’t you think?

I have no idea who David Bowie is. Suddenly I feel as though I live under a rock…;)
Bowie is one of my all-time favorite singers. I love his “Diamond Dogs” and “Reality” albums. What’s your favorite album?
It’s not just awesome it’s fantabdozy!!
Love love love this!
Ha that’s ace 🙂 It’s a shame you’re not in the UK. There was recently a huge David Bowie exhibition at the Victoria and Albert museum in London. I’m sure you would have been very inspired by it!

I didn’t know that was possible, haha! Bowie is the man.
Love. This could be a cool series….
This is my favorite thing I’ve seen in a while. I’m not a DIY person at all, but I want a David Bowie inspired skull!!!

I love this idea with bookends. I will make this for grandma because of her bithday!
Very surprised to see this. Bowie doesn’t exactly fit in with the whimsical,twee, magical world you inhabit!
Jeremys musical influence, perhaps?
You are so NOT a dork! Cool idea, very creative, Halloween or no Halloween.
such a good idea, off to hobbycraft we go!
Ha, so awesome!

Only you ladies could make a skull look cool.
David Bowie – My first concert with a girlfriend. We were madly in love with him and his music. Still awesome 40 years later.
Where did Bowie suddenly pop into your head when you saw that skull?! That’s a pretty fantastic leap of creativity if I do say so myself!
Helen mentioned the Bowie exhibit that just ended in London, but I think it’s touring because there’s a huge Bowie exhibit in Toronto now. Maybe it’ll head your way soon?
hahah so cool DIY

Ah! That’s funny, The AGO in Toronto just opened a David Bowie exhibit until the end of November. I have yet to go but apparently it’s amazing!
This is AMAZING and I want one of mine!!!!
