Bought a tiny witch’s house for 25 cents at the thrift store
and turned it into the witch’s cat’s little home
I put a “Zomling” (the witch’s pet) in a birdcage
I still had a white birdcage in my box of odds and ends
Bent one of the cage’s legs—after all, things shouldn’t
look too neat in the witch’s house
Painted it purple and black, and cut the cage open
Glued the Zomling inside, though it took quite a bit of
creative construction to let it dry properly
For the finishing touch, I glued on the ivy I bought at the fair from Art of Mini
I painted a mahogany clock purple and darkened the edges with black
I removed the original clock face and replaced it with one featuring a cat,
then added a little window with a mouse on the clock
Glued a little door with a mouse onto the clock
Made a small clock for the kitchen of the witch’s house
“Zomlings” are legless pets that have to test all of the witch’s brews
I bought these little cages at the thrift store but
didn’t know yet what to do with them
Now they came in handy for my witch’s house as cages for the pets
The name “Zomlings” is printed on the side, so I instantly
had a name for the little creatures
They fit perfectly with the “crazy witch’s house” theme
I treated them with Gesso and then painted them with
grey textured paint in a “cement look.”
I made a whole collection of signs for the exterior and interior walls
of the witch’s house I glued the clock onto a button
I also made labels for little bottles and two small “Trompe L’Oeil” cabinets,
trick-of-the-eye illusions
If you don’t know how to make these kinds of things to size,
take a look at my blog where I explain it step by step:

From the mushrooms I received earlier this week, I made “magic mushrooms.”
I coated them with glue and sprinkled them with golden glitter
The caps were painted black and also sprinkled with glitter
I filled the caps with air-dry clay and placed the mushrooms into them
Here are some printables I used, or check out my Pinterest board for many more:
