DIY Monster Spray

Got monsters lurking under your bed? Just in time for Halloween, make a fun spray to keep those crazy monsters away! 

I'm creating some Halloween goodies bags and was so thrilled to stumble across the monster printable from Chica and Jo! I decided to kick it up a notch.

What you'll need:

Bottle of body (or room) spray

Halloween body glitter dust

Glue stick

Printable from Chica & Jo

Glitter nail polish 

1.  Download and print label (I adjusted the size to fit my bottle)

2. Add glitter nail polish to the printables 'spray' for an added effect

3. Cut out, apply glue stick to label and wrap around bottle

Easy peasy right?

I added about 1/2 teaspoon of body glitter to body spray. 

I love the extra sparkle and shimmer it adds!

Aside from chasing away monsters, it also works great as a room air freshener! Even better, it's a fun non-candy Halloween treat for kids.

Caviar Nails

How about some caviar… For your nails?

A little fact most do not know about me is that I have been a licensed nail technician for over 13 years. At a young age, I always paid attention to my nails and when the acrylic nail fad of the 90's came around, I wanted to learn all about it (did I just age myself or what. haha). I enrolled in beauty school and took the state licensing board but I never made a career out of it. It was just an item on my bucket list that I can check off. To this day, I still swoon over pretty nails.

Fashion Week was filled with plenty of darkly hued nails, but at the Cushnie et Ochs Fall 2011 fashion show, models donned black beaded nails appearing as though they had been just dipped into the luxurious delicacy.

Want to try & create this caviar manicure at home?

1. Apply two coats of black nail polish
2. Dry and then cover the fingernail in nail glue
3. Dip nails into black seed beads and add a sprinkle of glitter for some sparkle
4. Set nail art with activator spray

While black nails are not my thing, I'm thinking this could be fun with a mixture of brightly colored seed beads. Sort of like cupcake sprinkles... for your nails!
