Halloween crafts are full of dripping, draping and ageing textures and Powertex does this sooo spookily well!

| Powertex halloween textures |
This door sign used "The end" stencil for the drips, skull and lettering. Lots of gritty textures here with a sand and balls mixture and plenty of red Powercolor to amp up the gore factor!
Just Lead Powertex, fabric and Powercolor pigment and a plaster skull create this bottle and goblets. See how the Powertex holds all those beautiful folds but the finish is like pewter! Gorgeous and perfect for a spooky evening of alchemy and spell casting. After curing, these can be washed gently without soaking.
Ivory Powertex, fabric and bister spray creates this aged and decaying fabric look. It looks so fragile but isn't. The way the bister spray dries on the plaster skulls is amazing! This technique is brilliant if you want to add an LED light to your bottles. The Ivory Powertex and gaps in the fabric let the light through. I chose a frosted bottle for a fantastic eerie glow.
This mixed media canvas also uses "The end" stencil and 3D sand to create deep earthy textures. Black bister spray made this one deep and dark. I'm loving the deep cracks when the sand dries completely. Heavy fabric or paper will make brilliant "scrolls".
There's still time to get your Powertextures on before Halloween! Grab your Powertex and wrap a bottle or two for your spooky Halloween night.
