Make Your Own Glow Water

This Halloweenish craft is so simple it's just plain silly. Want to make your own glow water??

Now, don't go drinking this water....it's not for that...but it would look great in a fountain!!

You'll Need:

Highlighters

Water

Jar

Gloves

~Take your highlighters and break them in half with some scissors.

~Take the felt inside the plastic and put it into a jar of water. 

 ~Do this with all the highlighters. Let them soak in the water for an hour or more (or squeeze them out with your hands to make it quicker).  Then, just drain and pull out the felt.

~To make your water really glow, put it under a black light. 

Thanks to About.com for the tips!!

Now, if you're looking to make a glow water you can TASTE....try a drink with tonic water. It has the same florescence in it that makes it glow under black light like highlighters.

'Stache For Cash

Meet Dan.

Dan's friend David has started a blog to help raise money for the family to help pay for his treatments. David is also growing a Mustache. :-) So, I wanted to ask for any help you can give (either by donating or just spreading the word about the mustache growing fund raiser)......

Halloween 3D Paint Scene

This is a cool craft for a kid. Heck, I like it as an adult. :-) Have you ever done leaf rubbings? Well, this is a different take on that....with 3D paint instead. You draw out a variety of different Halloween/Fall images and sayings with the paint on a piece of wood. Let it dry. Then take some paper and some crayons, pick a drawing, set the paper over it and move the crayon back and forth over the contours underneath. Voila!! An image appears!!
