This Standing Dome from the Home Decor section of Gina's Designs, comes in two styles. This one has a solid back and the other style has a framed opening at the back. I love both of them, but this one in particular, because it does remind me of a tombstone. The piece wasn't designed for Halloween necessarily, but I couldn't help myself. The 4-inch depth seemed like such a likely spot for these skeletons to hang out.
I painted the assembled piece black, then dry brushed some orange in places. I also adhered some packaged spider webbing from the Halloween section of the dollar store with gel medium for extra texture, and melted it into the paints with my heat gun. I also spread on a bit of glass bead gel and brass colored distress paint. For the mossy look I added green acrylic paint with a dry brush. I don't usually start with a plan, I just keep adding color and texture until I achieve the look I want.
