More on my Dressing Table

I have started to search charity shops for suitable items for my proposed Sinister Dressing Table.


Yesterday I acquired a small black and gold heart-shaped trinket box from Scope, which I am sure can be made suitably ominous – perhaps a tiny gilded skull mounted on the lid? And I remembered I already have a candle-stick which has been suitably customised (the cherub face decorating it was given red eyes and tiny fangs). So I am well on the way.


Now I am looking for small coloured cut glass bottles, which could contain perfumes – or poisons…but also look pretty…
