Newest Halloween House – Raven’s Crest Clock House

Here is the house I basically finished tonight called the Raven’s Crest Clock House. The only detail remaining is figuring out what to hang from the pendulum on the clock house. I’ve got some sculpey bats that I haven’t baked yet that I think I’m going to use. Like most of my other clock houses, this house can be hung on a wall from the reinforced hole in the back. It’s also got a small, lightweight base.

Once again I used the Tim Holtz Rooftop dies to make the shingles. I am greatly enjoying this set of dies. They give such nice dimension to the roofs on the little houses – as well as making it so easy to cut out lots of shingles.

You can’t really tell, but the roof tiles have been distressed with a little Faded Jeans distress paint. I even put some blue on the raven on the top to try to mimic the blue iridescence you see on black feathers sometimes.

Still deciding about using the orange pumpkins or not. They haven’t been glued down yet. I think the house needs that little pop of color.

 

I am going to enter this in an online challenge on “A Vintage Journey”. The theme this month is monochromatic. To my way of thinking, this little house is both vintage in style and monochromatic (even though I am probably going to glue the pumpkins down for that little pop of color).

    Oooh love your house. The crackle on the door is fabulous and I adore those pumpkins either side of the doorway. I love the edging on the roof using the Tim die and your raven sitting on top. Fabulous piece. Thank you so much for joining us at A Vintage Journey. Tracy x

    Deb, the roof tiles are either cut from painted cardboard or black card stock. I will look at when I return home in about 3 days. The "iron railing" embellishment on the top is made from 3 layers of card stock.
