Want a fast and easy way to use lights and tulle to create a spooky haunted cave effect with big impact?

 

For this project you'll need a string of lights and a few yards of tulle. I like orange lights. They reflect really well off the tulle and give the area you're decorating a spooky glow.

 

I used a string of 60 Halloween lights from Target, and three yards of matte black tulle.

There is a piece of the original ceiling between a couple of the stone columns. The rounds look to mimic bundles of reeds that were used for roofing in earlier shrines / religious structures that were made of organics rather than stone.

As is the case in much of London, you see some of the best stuff if you just remember to look up. Of course, looking up does tend to make it a bit difficult to figure out where you are (a lesson I had to learn over and over again), but it's hard to get too lost inside a museum.

It was always believed thqt this cloth ceiling was canvas, however when they got up there to look into replacing it, they found it to be linen backed with felt. Replacing it is in the future, so it ws decided to have the clouds mural to try to hide the tears. There is much controversy over this.

St Jacob's Cathedral (or St James) is an eighteenth-century Baroque cathedral.

The painting Maria Hilf (Mary of Succor) by Lucas Cranach the Elder from c. 1530 is displayed above the main altar. It is considered among the most venerated Marian images in Christendom. The cathedral also contains in the north aisle the canopied tomb of Archduke Maximilian III of Austria, Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights, dating from 1620. The cathedral was heavily damaged during World War II, but was fully restored within a few years.
