YOU ROCK!!! The kitchen shelves are AMAZING!! I especially like the one with the black light....what did you use to make the glow in the dark lliquid?? All of the decorations look just fabulous!

Britishwitch:

You wouldn't like my party decor...we're going to try and recreate the Aragog's lair in the Forbidden Forest from Harry Potter. It'll be in the basement family room, and I plan on having a "trail" of spiders leading down to it. LOTS and LOTS of spiders, all sizes and shapes, with a few egg sacs hung for good measure. I have cleaned out all the local stores of every spider they had!!!

*shivers* Oooooh Mama Hooch that sounds like my other half's worst nightmare!! I bet it is going to look fantastic! (Although I probably won't be hanging around there myself... I don't care what Hagrid says, Aragog would have me for breakfast.. or lunch.. or whatever meal it was time for!

pump'kinpye, that floor sticker is really wicked, I can't get over how well they actually blend in. And what a fantastic job you did with your Witch Potion shelves, and that Witch Is In/Out Broom is so sweet! Now, although I suffer from quite bad Arachnophobia, I can still totally apprecaite the way they look at someone else's place, and I wish I didn't have my issue cause those Metal Spiders you have are just the coolest looking spiders I've ever seen, they're very very cool indeed And your daughter is just so adorable too, looks like she was wanting in on some of your camera action

I found a video on how to make your own "Glow Water".

Here's another one I just couldn't resist adding...
Will it BLEND?

They call them clings, so you assume they are reusable like window clings but they aren't. I had misc. bugs last year that I put down and they had to be thrown away.

I got that sticker for .50 after Halloween!

Hi MHooch, you are so right about your Aragogs Lair...I wouldn't be able to go in there I am afraid....

I love all the HP films but when the scene with aragog comes on I have to leave the room.

Can't wait though to see your pictures (I can look at pictures )

I made a bottle of glow water.
I just smashed it with a hammer. I let it soak overnight and all the ink came out.
Only the yellow works. I tried the pink, blue and green. The pink turns orangey but doesn't have a great glow like the yellow.

I didn't find the amount of water effected the glow.

Great trick!

Thank you, Howlin' and pum'kinpye!! I will definitely make some of the liquid on the "Potions" classroom shelves flourescent. Now all I have to do is figure out where to put a black light...

I can't wait to show you guys pictures!!

that's awesome, now I just HAVE to make something with glow water.

Yeah! Too bad Waterbeds are so "out-of-date". Plus, you'd need about a dozen markers.

But, what if you blew bubbles in it, via cheap aquarium pump & a clear bottle or jar??

I'm surprised the other colors don't show up as well. I have a few old markers of different brands, but those glow up very nicely. They have a clear body to the pen and the UV shines right through.

Maybe I'll "milk" a few and see how they work.

Anyone else like the end of the "Will It Blend" video? I LMAO!

The video's take forever to load for me .... dialup but I did watch them both...and I did like the skeleton..lol..can't wait to try it..

I'm wondering if gel pens will work just the same. I'm gonna try in a few minutes.

that's just too cute!
