I always admired those that can use "just a little glitter" because I lack the restraint that requires lol
Right?
I know my reply is 2 years after the fact but for the latecomers, like myself, this may be informative. Instead of adding all the ingredients to the bottle then mixing inside use a 1 quart Ziploc bag. Add everything into that... zip it up and you can then mix everything inside the bag by massaging, squeezing, kneading until all is combined to your satisfaction. Then all you do is cut a bottom corner of the bag, just big enough to squeeze the ingredients out. Tuck the corner into the bottleneck and slowly squeeze out the contents, filling the bottle. Then finish as described.
Terry Myers yep, if you watch my newer videos I mix it in a cup and then use a disposable piping bag or ziploc bag to get the contents in. 👍thanks for watching!
Ooo, good idea!
How did you know it was 2 years o.o
Four years late for me
@@ttweekerzz probably has a calendar...
I love this, not only for Halloween, but I have a beach themed room, so I will use these year round. Thank you so much!
+Artsy Ashley thank you for watching! It will be very pretty in a beach room!
+Cooking and Craft Chick can you put food dye in the gel
Mine is mermaid!!
I do hope you still get notifications on these videos since they are almost two years old. I wanted you to know your videos are still helping people! My girls are in love with Harry Potter and potions and just getting old enough for these types of crafts. I have watched all your potion videos and saved them to a crafts playlist so I can gather all the ingredients and watch as we do the potions! You really did these amazing and gave us a whole collection! I do hope you decide to maybe do another current line so we have more to follow!
Kristi Phillips I’m so glad you and your girls can make these together! 😊 There are some new potions coming, flesh eating slug repellent will hopefully be up later this week. Have fun creating, and thanks for watching! 💙
Great idea using gel.
+Britany Klarich I love the suspension you get from gel! Thanks for watching!
Thanks im going try this
Both those potions look so pretty. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
just found your chanel hours ago and im seriously binge watching your videos and im having a mental break down because i want to do them all! looking forward to more crafts that are so easy to follow and so beautiful! lots of love!n
I am glad you found my channel! I appreciate the channel love!! Have fun creating, and thanks for watching!
Great idea! Just wanted to add that glass pebbles from dollar tree have an iridescence that adds a lovely touch and are easier to get than silica.
Also if you'll twist the cork it goes in easier. 😉 Happy Crafting!
I LOVE IT! thank you so much!
I am customizing my room into a mermaid themed room and this will be a cute ornament to be added to my room
+Unicorn Lov3r Glad I could help! A mermaid themed room sounds cute! Thanks for watching!
That is so neat looking! :O
Holy crow! I am totally going to have to try this for myself! Great idea, and awesome tutorial!
Thank you for watching! It is a really pretty potion!
Cooking and Craft Chick .

Cooking and Craft Chick what are sirens?
Antonia McCall sirens are another name for mermaids
Xx0Cathy0xX oh thanks 😁
Couldn't get silica beads so I used floral gel beads from the good ol' dollar store. Looks great !
Feel like I am late to the party, but this video is incredible and I am super excited to implement it in my next craft experience!
Yay! I’m glad I could help 😊
I have a mermaid themed room
MermaidAlly 16 same and my name is Allison. In using my grandmas account

WHY DIDNT I THINK OF HAIR GEL? BRILLIANT!
I did this idea with bathroom hand soap.☺
Omg I did this today and it looks great love it!
Thank you for the link to such wonderful labels! That's very sweet of you!
the round bottle is really pretty
Absolutely Beautiful!
Wow!! I love these. I need to try making one. Thanks for sharing how.
Beautiful Craftmaidenship
Some dollar stores have closet dry containers that might have the silica beads in it. Just read the label for the ingredients.
Very cool! 🧜♀️
Very pretty😃

Oh my GAWD! All this time I've been using resin for my watery based crafts and I could have been using GEL?!?! My wallet will thank you from here on out.
pimenel resin is good for some applications but I find the gel works for a vast majority 😉 Thanks for watching!
I'm using this for my Sprite and other mythical creature study room
+Captain Nemo awesome! I hope it turns out great for you!! Thanks for watching!

Cooking and Craft Chick your welcome

+NaNcy K (Poppy Moonblossom) thank you, and thanks for watching!
so pretty!!!
Nice❤
Doesn't the hair gel evaporate out through the cork since it is porous, unsealed, and the gel is alcohol based?
I have had very little issue with evaporation and I’ve had some of my potions for years.
Omg I want a my room to have these potions there so cool
looking soooo pretty !! love it
+Melisa Meiling thank you! And thanks for watching!
Really clever - love this!
Kelli Fultz thank you, and thanks for watching!
I’m going to start making these😍🌊
Yeeees ! Thanks you very very much ! :D
So cute
instead of using styling gel can i use hand sanitizer...?
+Charlie Horne yes, it may not suspend the glitter quite as well because it's a little thinner consistency but it will still work. 👍
I'm a mermaid so yay
Great tutorial! Easy to follow and no annoying music so I can hear what you are saying.
+crystalheart9 thank you 😊 and thanks for watching! (Btw I saw your previous post and yes I use dollar store gel in all of my potions! Good potion bottles don't need to be expensive 😄)
Yes, I should have left that on! Just yesterday I was in the dollar store and saw a huge bottle of hair gel and thought it would be great if it could be used in the potion bottles:D Thanks for the great tutorials. I just subed and am going through your tutorials:)
if the sea look for a room you could put the mermaid wish bottle out all year long
wonderful vid. I was wondering if you could share where you got your labels from?
Ashes Night I know this is many years later but I find them on eBay. She said she downloaded them from internet.
Where did you get the bottles for this? I just love these and want to do them as place holders at a mermaid event I am hosting. Thanks so much!💖💖
I got these from Michael’s.
i do not have any hair jell so do you think i could just use water and it would be fine? because i have all the other things except the jell and i love your idea
The hair gel is what suspends the glitter, beads, etc. with water it would just drop to the bottom. If you can’t get the thick hair gel, you might be able to use a thick hand sanitizer in its place. I hope that helps thanks for watching! 💜
@@CookingandCraftChick yes it did i ended up using some think clear hand soap which worked great i made a mermaid tears potion and put a label string and i small sea shell on it
Can you give a tutorial on making stickers of our own? Like what software do you use.. what printer.. best quality sticker paper etc. Thanks! Love all of your stuff!
I make all of my potion label designs in Photoshop. I print my labels on either my Epsom Ecotank printer (you need to tweak with the settings to get the best print quality) or an HP Printer I have had for over 10 years. My favorite sticker paper is the Avery full 8.5”x11” sticker paper. I hope that helps! Thanks for watching! 😊💜
Very cute and will try it tfs :)
stunning 😍
+Lari Emmanuelly Thank you and Thanks for watching! 😊
it is like more gel then the other items
I cannot find the siren tears or mermaid wishes on your site. Do you still have them? I love the labels.
Ooo! Do you think i could add glow in the dark beads to? Like the ones that glow slightly green? Xx
Hãrri_Pie you totally could add glow in the dark beads. 👍 😊
I love this and can't wait to make it! I can't find the labels in the link. Am I missing something?
It’s in a group label sheet
cookingandcraftchi.wixsite.com/mysite/single-post/2017/01/26/Potion-Label-Sheet
@@CookingandCraftChick Oh, I see. Thank you!
this is so cool make some more😃
+Gilbert Bombarda there are more to come!
So pretty c:
+Charlie Reddick thank you 😊 and thanks for watching!
if I use hand sanitizer ( for larps so I can rub the liquid o. their forehead) will I work?
Fiery Dragon Gamer it will however it won’t have the same suspension quality you get with the gel so the glitter and beads may not stay suspended; they might all settle. Also I wouldn’t add the Silva beads to the hand sanitizer. I hope that helps; thanks for watching! 🧜♀️
Love all the potion bottle videos. I was wondering if you can or would share a link to the labels for your jars. They are wonderful
+Erica Eldredge Here is a link for the Labels:

Thanks for watching! 😊
Cooking and Craft Chick Thank you so much!!!
what are we soposesd to do with it
Supercute!
Shy M thank you and thanks for watching!
Will the glitters sink to the bottom? I use glue and the glitters sink after some days
In the thick styling gel I use it does not sink, it stays suspended.
If you glue a cork in place will the bottle grow mold on the inside?
kimboj100 it shouldn't, none of mine have grown mold and they are over a year old. I hope that helps, thanks for watching!
will it work in a smaller bottle? p.s just subscribed!
+Alice Burgess yes! Depending on how small of a bottle you may want to omit the silica beads. In a small bottle they may absorb too much liquid. Just use clear beads instead. 👍 thanks for watching!
ill make it today
+CUTE MALTESERS happy making! Thanks for watching!
CUTE MALTESERS i already have all cause i harry potter fan
frisk undertale do you like undertale cause I love it I also like Harry potter
Estella jaques well.. Yes and pls check my Ig account @fluffy.amanda_ there is my undertale fan arts. #undertalefans
frisk undertale okay I will
I just collect fantisy like bottles like the crown wisky bottle
Have you tried mixing acrylic paint with the gel? Just wondering if it works like the food coloring
It makes the gel fairly opaque. If you check out my Brave Change your Fate Potion you can see me mix the paint with the gel. I hope that helps 😊
Make pegasus feathers next
ilove ur video
+Arlene Quitoy 😊 thank you very much!
Siren and Undine.🇲🇾🎂🎂⛲🌠
Can you send the potion bottles thru the USPS when you are using the styling gel and if so are there any restrictions? I would like to make the potion bottles for friends and then send them thru the mail and that is what prompts my question regarding what is and is not permissible.
I’ve never had any issues shipping them. I just seal them and package them so nothing can break. I place everything in a sealed bag inside the box just in case.
@@CookingandCraftChick thanks for the quick reply. I think that I am going to stick with distilled water and glycerin since I know or at least is my understanding that sending distilled alcohol is a different matter when shipping.
I used aloe instead of gel
Hi! I tried to find the label in the link you provided, but I cannot locate it. Is the label still available? Thanks!
Yes it’s in a group sheet.
cookingandcraftchi.wixsite.com/mysite/single-post/2017/01/26/Potion-Label-Sheet
Can you use clear glue instead of styling gel as I can't find a clear gel.
jazzhollins you can, but you may not get the same suspension you get with the gel. I hope that helps, thanks for watching!
Perhaps I am an idiot but I am unable to locate the link to the labels for these on your website. I can find others, but unfortunately not these or others I was planning on making.
Thank you so much for these beautiful creations, they're lovely and will perfect on my desk at work. I work in a Pharmacy so I find it rather humorous. :D
umpteenthusername these are on a bulk page here: cookingandcraftchi.wixsite.com/mysite/single-post/2017/01/26/Potion-Label-Sheet I hope that helps, I’m sure your desk will be adorable!!
@@CookingandCraftChick Thank you so much!!!!!!
Where did U buy the Bottles from plz
I purchased these from Michael’s Craft Stord.
I'm going to assume that the beads and glitter sink in the gel, right? I've used glue before and it was just sadness.
Seiaeka no they stay suspended, at least with the gel I use from the dollar store. You want the "sport hold" or "strong hold" the thicker the gel the better. If it's a thin gel then yes it will sink. This is the reason I use gel in several of my potions is because of the suspension quality; I hope this helps! 😄 thanks for watching!
That's actually really good to hear. I've been making mini bottles for a few years, but only dry or with resin. To be honest, I don't do much anymore because I have 3 cats and I don't want them to get sick from the resin fumes. Also, student fees leave me too broke to get resin. DS Gel would be a great affordable alternative. I'll try picking some up next time I'm in that area. :3 It would be nice to have the props done for my Sendrask party in Oct.
I think for the siren tears it was better off without the beads..
can i change the color of gel (RED for example) ?????????????
+Adem Salah Ben Khalifa absolutely! You can either get a bottle that is red and make everything the same as I did (which is what I did for the teal) or add a few drops of red food coloring. (If you go the food coloring route you will want to not add the silica beads, they will absorb the color so just add some clear beads to get a similar look). Hope that helps, thanks for watching!
does lube work instead of gel?
or baby oil
Yeah but how would one actually collect mermaid tears? And that many as well. Scary thoughts man...
please share the labels you found I can't find them
Alexis love the link to the label is in all of her potion descriptions, hope 5his helps ;-)
Whats the name of the cap looks like wood but its not
Ramon Lestrange the lid is a cork. I hope that helps, thanks for watching!
Thats it thank you so much
So a lot of people say they have a mermaid themed room and they'll use this but if you were a mermaid why tf would you have mermaid tears in your room lol
Can I use glue instead of gel?
For 98% of the potion bottles the Gel is the best option, it is by far the best at keeping the items suspended. Clear glue will either not dry or doesn't dry completely due to being in an airtight container and suspended items will fall to the bottom. I hope that helps, thanks for watching!
what can u use if u dont have the gel :(
ZEKE TITUS you could use hand sanitizer or clear glue; but you may not get the same suspension quality you get with the gel. I hope that helps, thanks for watching!
how did you get your labels for it
Alexis love google
😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Be super careful when using silca beads. You do not want your children or pets eatting them.
I agree

Thank me later
MOD podge..
it's a good tutorial, but she really over explains things that don't even need explaining
