If you've already made your way over to the Michael's spooky aisle this season, maybe you spotted these great wax bust candles in the skeletal shape of a dead bride (minus the vail.) Nicely sculpted, and the subtle brown highlights really bring this lovely lady to screaming life. Oh what I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall for this honeymoon of horror / wedding night-mare scene...

The wax form of "eh, I'd do her!" :)
That's a great sculpt - I really love the lace on the dress and the flowers in the hair. That's some fine work.
Good to see there's some decent stuff at Michael's. Last I looked, their Halloween inventory had gone pink.
Man, where to start-
If the skull faced lady from the Suspiria TV commercial was dressed up for a fancy ball,
-or Fantomah going out on a date,
-or The Grim Reaper's girlfriend ready to rock in the new year or Cinco De Mayo/day of the dead or the queen of Halloween,
or Barbara van Dess from the tale "Skeleton in the Closet" ready to paint the town red.
I'm just not able to think of all of the possibilities whom this skeletal faced femme fatale could be from either horror comics or movies.
I never forget a face, and I would never be able forget hers!
Great find Karswell!
The decolletage is always the last to go.
This is a particularly beautiful candle. I really hope they've hidden some surprises in there, to be revealed as it burns down. Something like filling the interior with little black tin spiders that will drop out as the wax around them liquefies.
Assuming anyone ever actually burns one of these. Wax is a particularly hardy and cheap sculpture material. Keep it away from the stove and it pretty much lasts forever without fading or warping or dissolving in the humidity. It doesn't tarnish or chip easily. Someone could easily keep this looking fine for decades. But I'd burn it. I mean, how cool would that look?
