Getting Spooky!


A few weeks ago my sister Cori came up with the idea to make Halloween Potions, sort of Harry Potter style. It sounded so fun I decided to join her! We went to thrift stores where we found old bottles and vases to decorate and we printed labels we found online. We even came up with some on our own.


 LEFT ABOVE: "Butterfly Kisses" Use: Instant Comfort. Are you having a goulish day? Feel like you need a hug from your mummy? Then this is for you!

CENTER ABOVE: "Witch Potion" Since 1692. Brewed with only the finest all-natural ingredients in the grand tradition of Salem's finest witches.

RIGHT ABOVE: "Warts Andall Spray" From Starlight Potions and Remedies. If you have warts, they will be removed. If you want warts, they will appear. (Freshness guaranteed or the next spell is free.)


LEFT ABOVE: "Befuddlement & Confusion Draft" From Potter's Apothecary. Effect: Causes the drinker confusion of the oddest sort. Caution: Do not operate brooms under influence.

CENTER ABOVE: (Emma made this one up): "Death Skulls Potion Punch" Instructions: Take 2 tablespoons before Midnight on Halloween or you will be instantly paralyzed and fail to recover until Midnight the next night. (As prescribed by Dr. Em and Dr. B)

RIGHT ABOVE: Pixie Dust Preserved in Pixie Tears" (Made From Concentrate)


LEFT ABOVE: Extra Eyeballs

CENTER ABOVE: "3 Wishes"

RIGHT ABOVE: "Shadow Powder" From Bubble Bubble Potion and Cauldron Company. Just a pinch sprinkled over your head and you disappear into your surroundings. (Order early for same day delivery)



LEFT ABOVE: "Truth Serum"

CENTER ABOVE: "Frog Flesh" When you don't have a prince, a frog will do.

RIGHT ABOVE: "Phoenix Feathers" Use: 1 Dash sends you flying! Expires October 31, 1790. Witches of Oz & Company.


LEFT ABOVE: "Dreamless Sleep Potion" Chase your nightmares away with Slug & Jigger Apothecary's #1 Product. Use: 1 tincture 30 minutes before Midnight.

LEFT CENTER ABOVE: "Poison Apple Potion" From Elmira's Essential Essences. Everyday essentials for the evil queen in all of us.

RIGHT CENTER ABOVE: "Pickled Eyeballs" From Good Witch Elixirs (Potions for Witches on the Fly) Prophecy: These sibylline eyeballs will see your future but never tell you until you eat one! Enjoy!!

RIGHT ABOVE: "Enchanted Dream Dust in Extract of Happily Ever After" From Starlight Potions and Remedies.


If you ever want to make some of these, let me know I can give you some tips! The girls LOVE them. A little imagination and the sky's the limit! My sister's are more scary and gory so she can give you some good tips, too!

Cute idea! Love it!

Hey, we just got back from an impromptu trip to Souther California with Curtis' parents. We thought about you guys when we were there. How close are you to San Diego?? Wish we could've got together.
