Poison
Wednesday October 21st 2009, 12:32 pm





To make these “poison” style candy jars I printed out a sheet of vintage labels from here (make sure you go under ALL SIZES and print from the largest file) I bought the spice jars at Goodwill, and they had screw on lids and really bad labels on each jar. I used a little goo-be-gone to get rid of the labels and then sent the spice jars on a trip through the dishwasher.

I picked up a bag of corks at the Craft shop, and then used spray glue to attach the new labels to the front of each jar. I plan to have a bunch on our Halloween food table, but I think they would make pretty awesome favors for guests too!

Just don’t forget if you have younger children to explain that they should never eat or drink anything marked poison. :)

I have a bunch more Halloween things to share with you soon! There might be more then one blog post a day for the next few days just to be able to share everything.

These are great! I like the Bed Bug Poison! I’m going to store these ideas in case I can’t use them all this year. Thanks!

Oh, those are so awesome! They turned out great. We’ve got a few people coming over this weekend, but I just can’t get myself in a spooky mood this year! Thanks for the inspiration.

I love these!! I wish I had the time and a reason to make them this year! My best friend always goes all out on Halloween and has a huge party, so I’ll have to show her this idea and remember it for next year for myself!
