Supplies:

Dragon Scales – Sequins (Dollar Store)

Mermaid Tears – Clear and purple orbie beads (Dollar Store)

Spider Legs – Black pipe cleaners (Dollar Store)

Instructions:

Step 1: Download and Print out your labels from My Silhouette Store. I just used my color printer at home. Be sure to measure your bottles so you can size your labels correctly before printing and cutting them out.

Step 2: Fill your potion bottle with your items of choice.

Step 3: Cut out your labels and glue your labels onto the bottles.

Step 4: And any final touches! You can distress the bottles with ink to make them look more old and worn. You could also make your potion fillers from edible goods and have fun tasting your Hocus Pocus potions on Halloween!

I hope you have fun with the project! I loved making the labels and watching my niece decorate her house with her new potions.

When you fold the card closed you will want
