Halloween Bloodbath Fountain

Step 8Add Blood and finishing touches

Add Blood and finishing touches
I wanted to make some nice thick looking fake blood, but for the size of my fountain it just plain required too much corn syrup! I ended up just filling it with water a bottle of red food coloring.

I filled mine to the top based on the requirements of my pump, and to fill the letters. You can of course use more or less depending on your situation.

I dribbled some food coloring down the skull, bones, and rocks too for the heck of it.

Oh, yeah! And stir the food coloring with your spoon, and not your arms. I was messing with the pump after dying the water, and now I shall be going to work tonight with red up to my elbows. heh.

I also added in my candles, and cobwebs!
