Why not stir up your imagination and design your very own monster?

Whether it's a friendly beast or a creature of nightmares, creating your monster can be a thrilling artistic venture.

Monsters are a fantastic subject for any artist because they allow you to explore the unknown. There are no rules when it comes to these creatures. Big eyes? Sharp teeth? Tentacles? The crazier, the better!

Designing your monster is not just about drawing or painting; it’s about storytelling. What’s your monster’s backstory? What world does it inhabit? Does it have special abilities? Where does it like to lurk?

Not only is this a fantastic crafty idea for this year's inktober but a way to experiment with lines, colour, and textures. 

For another low-budget spooky craft, let’s take a step back in time with a craft that combines vintage charm with the chills of the upcoming spooky season.

We’re talking about transforming vintage-style photographs into eerie art pieces by adding painted ghosts, haunted houses, and other spooky elements.

It’s a perfect project for those who love a bit of nostalgia mixed with a dash of the unknown.

This is a perfect activity for date night, a group activity, or just doing it yourself. You can even create your own vintage-inspired pictures by taking a Polaroid out on the town. 

With Halloween right around the corner, it's time to delve into some spooky crafting.

This year, we're taking a unique twist on Halloween decorations by diving into the world of thrift store art makeovers. Transform a dusty old painting from your local op shop into a spooktacular masterpiece perfect for the season! 

Op shops are treasure troves of forgotten art. These pieces provide a fantastic canvas for your creativity, especially when adding a ghostly touch for Halloween.

Get cozy with the windows drawn and a cup of tea while enjoying giving new life to old art with this wallet friendly craft. 

Halloween’s just around the corner, and it’s time to bring some ghoulishly good fun to your craft table! 

Whether you’re into the eerie vibes of classic horror or prefer your Halloween characters to have a touch of cheeky charm, making your very own hand puppet is a great way to embrace the season’s spirit.

Are you making a mischievous little ghost, a dapper vampire, or maybe a cute-but-creepy witch? Choose your Halloween character and gather your materials. Felt works great for a soft, moveable puppet, while clay can add a little more sculpted detail.

If you’re feeling adventurous, mix and match materials to create a unique texture!
