All out of #9


Another few great finds from my trip to Goodwill this past weekend involved these jars. One smelled of maple syrup. One smelled as though it was just unearthed after 100 years.

I've seen a lot of these around the web as of late, and Isabel and I wanted to make our own.
Reality is, I have a pitbull and a 4 year old.  I couldn't use liquid.
So, Isabel and I went to the 99 cents store and picked up dried black beans and yellow and green split peas.
Did you know that split peas came in YELLOW!?

I founds some cute (wait, it's Halloween - spooky?) labels online and used modge-podge (fun) to adhere them to the bottles.

I am working on my Halloween mantel. Even though I don't really have a mantel.
I can't wait until it's all pulled together and I can share.
Until then, I've got potion-duty. Have to make sure no one tries to spill the beans.
Get it?!

Happy Thursday!
