DIY Anti monster spray - FREE printable

---

My friend's most amazing tip to rid your child’s fear of scary monsters at bed time comes in a spray bottle! That's right, just use a squirt bottle (with water in it) to spray away those uninvited monsters! 

Here's how:

1. Simply print my label out on a piece of A4 paper, trim to the appropriate size

2. Stick to any spray bottle with water inside

3. If you can, add some scent to the water for added magical ghost repelling qualities. Lavendar is a great essential oil for bed time!

FREEBIE: DIY Pasta container plus printable cover

---

Here's a fun upcycled Pringles pasta container tutorial! Unlike other bags of pasta which you can just roll up, spaghetti packets are a bit awkward don't you think? You can solve the problem by putting the extras in a Pringles can!! To make it even easier for you all, I've made the covers/wrappers available to download - for free! 

Instructions:

1.  Use an old XXL Pringles container.

2.  Download my free printable patterns and print to fit to A4. (download links below)

3.  Fold the top and bottom of the print to fit the height of the container. (there's no need to cut as the fold gives it a cleaner finish)

4. Tape at the back.

// Circle pattern // Tribal pattern // Stripes pattern //

Happy crafting everyone!
