The bottle is another craft store purchase filled with sticky
eyeballs. As eyeballs go they are not
very realistic looking, but I think calling them fisheyes gives them a little
more credibility.
The label started with some fish clipart and I just layered
them with other stuff that I thought looked cool. Then I had to find a name
that would tie all that mess together. Behold
the Devil Firefish, which are not only beautiful, but poisonous, so they should
fit right in with the rest of the bottles.
I went a little silly with some fronts I downloaded from
fontspace.com. I used Eyesis by Shrine
of Isis, Red or dedd and Flame by Fontomen and JI Starfish by Jeri Ingalls.For the label I used a cereal box as the base. I glued on one side of the label, lining the middle of the label with a side crease on the box. It’s just easier to use the nice clean folds that are already there, than making your own. I cut out the glued label and the remaining label and glued them together. Running a Sharpie along the edge to blacken the exposed cardboard gives it a nice finish. The label was then attached with raffia threaded through a hole punched in the top corner.
