Welcome to
Week 2 of Haunted Humpday hosted by
Incipient Wings! This week I have been working on 'Jeannie in a Bottle', another altered bottle with an altered vintage doll head stopper. I altered a Halloween bottle from
Michaels again but in a slightly different way. I adore the bright green glass and didn't want to change that, so instead I made a face mold and added it the front of the bottle, then painted the face with acrylic paints and black mica flake. The vintage doll head is altered to look like a cute but creepy little demon, using acrylic paints, resin clay and black mica flake. I'll be adding ribbons and embellishments to the bottle once all the paint and glaze is dry.
So what makes this post a haunted post, besides the old dirt, dust and cobwebs in my unclean kitchen? Well, ask yourself this instead...who is Jeannie? Why is the bottle named 'Jeannie in the Bottle'? Figure it out yet?
So the story goes that a cute but creepy little demon lured poor Jeannie to look inside the pretty green bottle...when she did he trapped her soul inside...and what you see now is her face as she tries to escape...from...the...inside...of...the...botttlllleee......muuuuuwwaaahhaaaa.....
