Skeleton Poison Bottle



Ok...I am having too much fun crafting Halloween decorations!

I had this empty Trader Joes Moscato bottle sitting around for a few months now, knowing it would be useful for something.  

I watered down my craft tac glue and poured it the bottle and the I added green and black glitter.

I cut a hole in the bottom of one of the skeleton heads with a exacto knife.

I glued my cork into the hole and added a bat headband. It seems most skeletons are non gender so I changed it up a little and made it a girl skeleton.






I found this poison label at The Graphics Fairy.  After I printed it I use some fine sand paper and roughed it up a little for a worn look and then I glued it to my bottle and coated with Mod Podge. I glued some felt bats onto the bottle.  I was thinking it would be fun to do with a full bottle of wine too instead of putting glitter inside.  One for looks and one for use!

    Oh that is really great! Love that wispy headband you used! Somehow, the fact that it's a girl skeleton, makes it a little creepier! I love it. I'm happily following you via GFC and looking forward to more.
