Dia De Los Muertos Mask

As we move closer and closer to November I'm sure I'm not the only one getting ready for Dia De Los Muertos. Even if I don't necessarily celebrate it to the point of creating an ofrenda (though I would love to!) I find it a particularily fun and comforting holiday. The whole point of creating a calavera mask for yourself is that it represents you. I tried to incorporate a few of my own features into the mask along with lots of bright colors that I enjoy.

It's very easy to make your own! All you need is some acrylic paint, a papier mache mask (or you can make your own) and some spare time. It makes for a really fun centerpiece.
