Day of the Dead Glitter Skull with Holographic Illusions™

Craft Materials

Before starting this project, you’ll need the following materials:

As you all know I’m apart of the core blogger team for DecoArt.  Every month we have a fun challenge to create a project using a DecoArt product.  This month our challenge was doing a project using their new Holographic Illusion. I love being apart of their team and trying our all these new products every month.

Looking for a last minute Halloween craft to do before this weekend? Then look no further! This Day of the Dead project is perfect for anyone having a Day of the Dead themed Halloween party this weekend! After I found this great wooden plaque at the craft store I decided to pair it with DecoArt® Holographic Illusions™ now available at Hobby Lobby and JOANN’s. This paint has large flakes of glitter that really add a special pop to any craft.

Items needed:

  • DecoArt Holographic Illusions 2oz – Fairy Pink
  • DecoArt Holographic Illusions 2oz – Dazzling Teal
  • DecoArt Holographic Illusions 2oz – Enchanted Blue
  • DecoArt Holographic Illusions 2oz – Mystic Black
  • DecoArt Holographic Illusions 2oz – Divine Purple
  • Americana Acrylics 2oz – Peony Pink
  • Americana Acrylics 2oz – Lamp (Ebony) Black
  • Americana Acrylics 2oz – Ocean Blue
  • Americana Acrylics 2oz – Peacock Teal

  • Wooden Day of the Dead Plaque

Head over to the DecoArt Blog and see the full tutorial on how I painted this Day of the Dead Sugar Skull  project!

It’s GLITTER time! I was super excited to use the new Holographic Illusions™, I just LOVE a glitter project. I think all these colorful glitters are perfect to use for a Day of the Dead project, don’t you agree?

The SPARKLES!!
