The Internet: Where Evil and Crafts Collide!


It can only be a good thing that when a search for 'evil' in craft forums actually yields a wealth of results. 
 To wit:
The incredibly clever project below. I located this little beauty on Craftster.org. It's titled "Nightmare/Daydream CrossStitch" because that delightfully sweet little unicorn gets all EVIL on you when you turn out the lights, thanks to strategically placed glow-in-the-dark embroidery thread. 




Dang. If you've got some extra time on your hands, I  don't see how you could  go wrong. The chart and directions for how to make it are here.
If you're looking to make (or buy) some incredibly Day of the Dead art, you need to check out Crafty Chica. Covet, covet, covet. Go to the project section of her site, click on any October archive and you will find at least 3 or 4 incredibly Day of the Dead projects- everything from necklaces to shrines to these incredible bleach pen skull banners. 


Coming soon: my hunt for more evil crafts takes me to ETSY... and EVIL CRAFT PROJECT BOOKS.
