Make your own Monster Spray

I'm a HUGE fan of The Purple Pug (I kinda bleed purple and glitter)...so when I saw Kristy's 'Magical Monster Spray', I tucked the idea away to use for Halloween.  
It is so cute/funny/clever/simple - right up my alley.

*I am using mine to 'keep the stinky monsters away'...

How I made my own:
I picked up a few spray bottles from Wal-Mart ($1 each).  
Printed 'monster spray' on sticker paper and cut with a 2" punch.  
I used Halloween themed card stock (cut with 3" punch) as the background.  
Used a hole punch so I could add a ribbon (in this case, a twisty tie).  
I opted to use store bought spray but there are several DIY recipes around.
(I used Febreeze...you can choose your fave).  



The kids think it's funny to spray away monsters.  
I think the kids make the house stink.  
It's a win-win!

  2. We had "Monster spray" we would spray in the closet when my oldest was little because she swore there was a monster in her closet. It was a nightly ritual. So funny!

    Love the way you decorated the bottles! So cute! I never even thought about that for Halloween. So smart!

  3. OMG! I smiled when I saw this. My 2 year old is always whining about "monsters". If I did this, he wouldn't have any excuse not to want to go to bed!

  5. Cuteness!! Mine never really said anything about monsters until I took them to see Monsters Inc. at the summer kids' movie...they haven't asked too much lately, but they were definitely on alert. :s

  6. Cute idea, Staci! My oldest isn't afraid of monsters yet, but it's only a matter of time.
