DIY Organs in a jar

Fall is finally here witch means Halloween is around the corner. I love Halloween dressing up being creative getting candy what's not to love. Last year we didn't have a lot of money to decorate so a lot of our decorations came from the dollar stores. They are always okay but not great. Since my kids are getting older I need to step up my game on decorations. I of course kept all my dollar store HalloweenDecor from last year but I didn't want to use them this year the way they were. So I have found a few creative things to do with dollar store Halloween decorations.

Here's the first one, hope you enjoy. 

Things you will need:

1) Dollar store body organs( Brain, heart, eyes, fingers ect. )

2) Empty jars ( I used an old candle jar and peanut butter jar basically anything you have lying around)

3) Your choice of food coloring and water or ( optional you can use shampoo or dish soap for a slime effect)

Directions: 

First peal off the label with warm water and wash the jar with soap and water. If there is any sticky residue you can use goo be gone I purchased my in the dollar section in Target for only a dollar. Next its time to decide witch Organ for witch jar after put aside the organ. Now it's time for the food coloring and water. Start with half a jar full of water and then add you color get creative. My sons help for this part they added in colors tell they love it. We ended up haveing one bright green and a dark orange. It is now time to put the organ in the jar and fill the rest with water and close the lid. [ if you decided to use shampoo or dish soap you put the organ in the jar first and then pour your desired soap in the jar until full or your desired look] 

note: I tried the soap method first and found it dissolve the paint off the organ. It wasn't the look I was going for so switched to water. 

I spray-painted the top of the peanut butter jar gold to give it a richer look.

Here is the final result. Everything here was either purchased at the dollar store or I Already had on hand such as glass bottles.
