Mummy: “Hey! Watch where you put those!”
Frankenstein: “Hey, that’s my best jacket!”
I wanted to create a seasonally spooky project to end my short sabbatical from blogging (think Indiana Jones crossed with Scooby Doo) – I just hope these knife-block cutouts are not too spooky! Anyway, just to makes sure, I chose two well-known fictional characters, Frankenstein and the Mummy, both of whom it could be argued are not really alive anyway!
It’s a fairly easy project to make, but if you’d like to use my artwork you can download it below – also, the illustrations are intact (there’s no knife holes!) so feel free to use them for other spooky projects as well.
Includes:
1) Colour versions of the Mummy and Frankenstein artwork
226 downloads so far, thanks everyone!
The ‘craft’ blogging community is a very generous one. A lot of people work very hard preparing projects to share (for free) and I for one would like to show my support by being a little more active in highlighting some of my favourites.
So, with that in mind I’d like to give Mini-eco a big shout out, and to tell you to visit Kate’s wonderful blog, and then to buy her wonderful book, highlighted below.
Hi Scott…thanks for the shout out (*blush*). Had been checking your blog but it seems you were MIA for a while. Lovely to see you back ^_^
cool idea
Nice idea and very artistic!
we missed you
Thank you – it’s nice to be back!
I don’t know when I found your site, it’s been quite a while ago. Your RSS feed has been on top of my Google page and I’ve been so anxious to see some new project from you. Your artistry is amazing and when people tell me I’m artistic or creative I shake my head and tell them to look at your site. Thank you so much for sharing your talents. Now I gotta go finish reading this post.
Hi Mark, I appreciate the kind words! Scott:)
so good to see your ideas – it been a long time since your last post…
Now that is AWESOME!! Thanks for sharing!!
Cheers!

Another visitor via Craft Gossip – your work is amazing! My knife block is mummified for Halloween and there are a couple of other projects of yours I’m itching to try – thank you!
Cool – so glad my artwork has been put to use! Thanks for the comment and let me know how you get on with the other projects. Scott:)
I just came across your web site from Craft Gossip and I like it very much, you are quite the artist (and more). Thank you for the Frankenstein and Mummy, I will put them to good use on my kitchen knife block.
Thank you for the lovely comment. Really pleased you like my spooky project. S:)
Love this idea! I’m pinning it so I don’t forget. I love mini eco too! I read her blog as well!
Thank you Lisa:)
I looked very often to this Blog. Your ideas are really great and I’m happy to see today your new crafts idea, it’s amazing and I’ll try it today because it’s a perfect way to pimp up our knife-block. Thanks a lot for showing. Greetings from Germany

So glad to see you and your creativity are back

Awesome, thanks so much! It’s great to be able to share a craft again, and so pleased to have it featured on Craft Gossip!
