Welcome to the mystical world of Madam Rue. She has the gift of sight, which can reveal your future and explain your past. Only she can lift the veil of mystery and connect to the regions beyond.
If a revelation is not what you seek but instead a charm or potion, you have come to the right place. Is it love, fame, fortune, or perhaps release from a curse?
Or maybe the sound of her tambourine and her melodious voice drew you here. Be not afraid; step inside, and your destiny awaits.
Here comes another Halloween project, although I’m thinking gypsies are never out of season.
For those who have built or are building the Halloween Carnival, this is a piece you might want to add to your display.
My choice of a jeweled-toned color palette comes from looking at pictures of gypsy caravans, where I noticed bright colors, fabrics, beading, fringe, and bling.
What did I love the most about this project? I think the mini globe lighting is right at the top. I wish I could go back to some of my older pieces and use the lighting. It would also look cool with the Mad Scientist Lab from earlier in the summer.
I also love the furniture made from either a kit or unfinished wood items. My particular favorite is the 3 Panel Hutch sitting on top of a Library Table.
I’ve cooked up some new gypsy fortune-teller-themed images for this project. I also used some of my Old Books & Papers Digital Image Set.
This sheet is a collection of mystical items. There are books on palm ready, fortune telling, crystal ball reading, and more. A seer into the beyond might need various business signs, tarot cards, and other odds and ends.
This set is a collection of mystical items that a seer into the beyond might need. In addition, the set contains images that you can use to create and outfit a gypsy tent. All of the images in the Gypsy Fortune Teller Collage Sheet are included, plus a tent top panel, tent side panel, and images to decorate a table, curtains, and rugs for a total of 38 images.
This collage sheet contains 15 different lanterns, with two of each style the lantern, for a total of 30 images.

Laura, Madam Rue's tent is just awesome - I adore your work! JERI
ReplyDeleteOh my word Laura, I picture myself living in your wonderfully stylish room. Madam Rue's room is a mind blower, so incredibly executed. Bravo.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely fantastic!! I am enchanted by every single detail of this magical creation!
ReplyDeleteI have searched both supply lists but can't seem to find what you used to "hold" the lights on the floor. I am talking about the gold rings that the lights are popped up through. Are they just washers or something else? Please let me know!
Thanks for sharing this amazing creation with me!
