Potion Bottle Tutorial


Potion Bottles
Hi everyone, today I thought I would show you a quick easy Halloween craft that was fun to create.  This is how you do it:
Use an unusual bottle.
( I went to the thrift store to find my bottles)
Spray Paint the bottle
(I used a good brand of spray paint, sometimes it is hard to get paint to stick to glass.  You may want to prime the bottle or even use a fine sandpaper to scratch it up first.
Fill the bottle with rice, wheat, sand or something to give it weight.
Glue the top with a super glue of your choice.
Decorate the bottles with ribbon. moss, anything that makes it look old and spooky.
I made labels with my computer using an Old English font.
( Witches Warts, Vampires Blood, Toads Drool, Dragons fire)
You can put the labels on the bottles or make a tag with the labels.
This is such a fun craft for you and your kids to make!

Book review

I would like to say a word about a inspiring book that I read a while back.   The name of the book is Hitchhikers by Bernard Poduska The true story of one man's amazing journey from a homeless and hopeless childhood to a life of conversion and faith . The story starts in the spring of 1948 when Bernard Poduska and his family was evicted from their home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Bernard was eight year old at the time, it tells of his family hitchhiking across the country trying to find a place to call home.  It tell of the hard times, and the suffering they went through.  It also tell of how Bernard, being an atheist, finds God.  This is a quote from the book.  " you will never know what's on down the road until you've made the journey; be grateful for any rides others may give you along the way, and whatever your destination, the journey is everything-- make the most of it." I enjoyed this book, it is very different than the run-of-the-mill books.  ...
