I purchased my already labeled Halloween potion bottles for $1 each from the Target Dollar Section. They are so fun!

I also used little glass bottles and tied on tags.

Fill bottles half way full with baby oil.

Add 1-2 drops of food coloring to your bottle. 

Replace the cork/lid and shake well to mix.

Open top and add glitter.

These two can’t get enough glitter! 

Finally, fill almost to the top with water. 

Replace the cork top again and shake well to create your potion.

 

 

Optional: add a tag and potion name!

 

 

 

Spooky and pretty too!

 

I display these colorful potions on my Halloween display tiered tray and also at my upcoming Hocus Pocus movie night!

    How far in advance can you make these? Will they mold?

      My bottles that I made last year are still on display and look great! They do not mold but stay liquid and you can shake up to mix it. Make as far in advance as you would like!

    I made some and I love them. However the Baby Oil keeps leaking from the cork whenever I shake and it shouldn’t because I sealed them with wax. Other than that though they are amazing.
