I love your DIYs. Two or three years ago, I made a hidden potions Halloween book, but separated the plys of paper towels. This had the same effect as the toilet paper, but took less time due to more coverage at once and I used more than one ply. Keep those clever DIYs coming. You are a very gifted crafter. TFS
Omg!!! Bethany you are my hero!!! Seriously. I found the Hocus Pocus books (last year) made in resin and sold on Amazon and Etsy for 200 bucks!!! I can't wait to try and make the Hocus Pocus book!!! 😘
I'm so going to make the book for my daughter who loves Hocus Pocus. But I'm going to try using one of those old-fashioned looking composition books so she has blank pages to write in it.
📖🌟🕸🕷🐍🐲😈🔥🎃💀👻⚰☠🌻 For the snakes on the book cover, instead of making them out of just hot glue, u can also use the plastic kind same for spiders or other objects u want to add to the book. Can also use stickers or foam stickers letters. The same way u used the plastic ping pong ball eye. And then cover the book in mod.podge and toilet paper. And then paint. Makes it easier I think and has more dimension and smaller details. The items can be purchased from the dt.
Ohhhh. BETHANY. So glad you shared this book with us. I have wanted to make one for my grand daughter. But it looked so hard to do. You made it look so much easier and sooooo well done girl. I think I am gonna do the mirror frame in stone spray. Luv all your diys. Thank you so much. ❤️
You always blow my mind! Your incredibly talented! I love the hocus pocus book. Your painting skills on the book reminded me of your make up tutorial channel. I really enjoyed all these DIYs. Amazing like always! Love your channel ❤️
You rock Bethany! I have watched sooooo many of the gothic book tutorials. They were so lengthy, confusing, time consuming and costly that I purchased the dollar tree box ones. Not what I wanted but.... You make it so easy to follow that I am starting right now. THANK YOU!!
On the books I make and sell on my Etsy store (mostly Harry Potter text books) I use coffee filters instead of toilet paper or news paper because it has a better looking fiberous texture that ends up looking more like leather/old book cover. Also coffee filters are slightly thicker and can be easily torn on the edges and into random shapes to give a more organic feel so you don't end up with square edges. Plus it doesn't dissolve/ disintegrate like toilet paper can when using lots of glue /modpodge. Another thing I use is plastic kids toys like snakes, bats and bugs (Halloween is a good time to buy these). They can easily be cut up if you want only part of the bug or just the wings and such. I also use this technique over fake vines, leaves, branches etc. The best tip is to use very small pieces of coffee filter so you don't end up with bunching or puckers and it all looks smooth I find using a cheap pain brush to work the pieces in yeilds the best results. Final tip: buy the Dollar tree glue instead of the tiny bottles of mod podge. Thin the glue with some water and you will get loads more coverage out of a bottle of glue than 1 bottle of mod podge. I have made these using all Dollar tree products and they come out amazing but I have found they look even better if you go to the thrift store and buy old books with rough edged pages because they are already naturally shed and discolored. I also like to buy books that match the theme of the book I'm making since they often have cool old images or illustrations in them - cook books for spell books, old copies of Dracula or Grimm's fairy tales for vapire spooky themed books, gardening books for 1,000 magical herbs and fungi, animal books for fantastic beasts and where to find them etx
☠️⚡🎶"AMUCK, AMUCK, AMUCK"🎶⚡☠️ (that's the only part of the movie that I can remember, the witch running AMUCK). You did a great job and I'm sure that Summer truly appreciates that you did this for her! Please give her some love from Michigan 💜!! We haven't seen her in awhile.
Never clicked so fast. I saw you upload but I was working a 12hr shift and couldnt watch it until now. Hocus Pocus is my favorite favorite movie ever since I was a little girl and love so much my 9yr old daughter loves it just as much! These diys are the only Halloween diys I'm doing. I know where I'm going after CCD today! Thanks so so so much for sharing!
I made the skeleton mirror! I couldn't find exact mirror but something very similar. When I tried removing the mirror glass inside, it actually broke. But I had one of those metallic serving trays from dollar tree that happened to be same size and shape lol. It created a 3d effect. I love how it turned out! Best diy ever!
I've done this on a notebook with clay! Using the little glass rocks to make a dragon's eye and it turned out great but! I am amazed how great the hot glue worked! So much quicker to use hot glue thank you!!
Bethany you do such a wonderful job on everything you do. Thank you so much for showing your work. You have inspired me to do diy projects and having a great time doing it. I'm a mom of 4 and work FT so that's my time so thank you.
I love all these diys, especially the mirror. I haven’t seen those mirrors at my Dollar Tree for years. We really don’t get as much as some stores. I see cool stuff that I’d like to do, but can’t find it at my DT. Still so cool, love it. 💕💕💕
OMG! The book is AMAZING!!!! I’ve been looking for a diy just like this. I tried using air dry clay, and just wasn’t as happy as I wanted to be. I have also tried putting hot glue on parchment paper, and it’s amazing. I was able to lay it on top of what I drew, and peel it right off when the glue dried. I didn’t want to draw on the toilet paper, well I used tissue paper because I had a ton. I just didn’t want to tear the paper. I just love your DIY’s! ❤️
Wow! That book looks amazing!!! My daughter and I should try that! Hocus Pocus is my all time favorite Halloween movie and for some odd reason I have no Hocus Pocus decor! Thanks for sharing!
Love love love the book!!! You made it look easy enough for me to try it!! Thank you for showing how it is made. My daughter and I will be make one soon. Great Halloween ideas!!
Bethany I'm so in love with these Halloween ideas ur so creative. I been watching and following your for I think 4 yrs. U always amaze me. Have a great day. This is one my favorite videos I keep going back to it.
YEA SUMMER!!! We’re so glad you asked your beautiful sis-in-law to create these Hocus Pocus masterpieces! I am SO happy that you and Brittany found each other!💕 And have a spooktacular Halloween! 🎃 👻
Girl u did your thing with the spell book! I love the Hocus Pocus movie! I normally don’t decorate for Halloween but i wanted to try it this year... and what better way to do it by watching my girl Bethany with her awesome diys!! Will be making the spell book🙌🏽😘
Bethany, you are SO talented! It’s fun to watch you paint, because you are so good at it. More tutorials with you painting details like that would be great. I can’t believe how you transformed that book, amazing!
Made this a few years back. Painting tip- mix the black and brown paint with glue or mod podge and once the first layers of paint have dried apply the glaze mix all over and wipe off with a slightly damp paper towel and BOOM....ya got old, legit crusty aging!
I made Winifred’s Spell Book with my kids & I got Cool Mom Points with them...honestly I got Cool Points with myself bc I cant believe we made something SO cool! Hocus Pocus is one of our faves all time! Lol and Bargain Bethany is a household name here...we love following ur diys!
Just put together some candles while watching this video , so quick and easy thank you for the cheap simple diy..a black flame candle tutorial would be awesome!
You are SERIOUSLY AMAZING!! I love your channel and have been watching it for a long time and have been so awed and inspired! Thanks for sharing your talent and hauls too! PS...Your baby poochie-pie-kissy-face is just too cute for words!
Love the Book, that is awesome! I found a trick for getting paint to stick to hot glue, totally by accident. I had a project that I didn't want it to look like hot glue but look like caulking. I used the tip of an iron to smooth and shape it. I think what made my paint stick was that it wasn't a completely even surface anymore. You could do that with the snake and just shape it. But I would just do it as a fix (like in your case) after the fact and not a common practice. Love the idea of the tissue paper though. Very clever.
Skeleton space did look a little spooky in the frame. These are very awesome tips on decorating for Halloween thank you so much for all the tips bye for now
You are so talented I love love love the book I've been wanting to add some Halloween books to my decor. I love the skeleton mirror I need one by my front door!
Wow, amazing diys. Was looking for ideas of Hocus Pocus home decor, due to being soo expensive and usually the postage is more than the item. I live in England, but I can obtain most items you used in this video. I’m going to check to see what Halloween diys you are doing this year. Great inspiration thank you. Xxx
Justin Timberlake: Bringin' Sexy Back. Bethany: Bringin' Glue Stick Back.
I love glue sticks. I holds down the paper without the bubbles and once it’s dry it holds really well.
I love your DIYs. Two or three years ago, I made a hidden potions Halloween book, but separated the plys of paper towels. This had the same effect as the toilet paper, but took less time due to more coverage at once and I used more than one ply. Keep those clever DIYs coming. You are a very gifted crafter. TFS
"Hocus Pocus"🎃 is one of my all-time favorite movies! Sanderson sisters - hilarious!! Cute spells book, Beth!🥰❤
I love the book and the fact that none of the pages were ruined. Thank you : )
Omg!!! Bethany you are my hero!!! Seriously. I found the Hocus Pocus books (last year) made in resin and sold on Amazon and Etsy for 200 bucks!!! I can't wait to try and make the Hocus Pocus book!!! 😘
I'm so going to make the book for my daughter who loves Hocus Pocus. But I'm going to try using one of those old-fashioned looking composition books so she has blank pages to write in it.
please let us know how that works. would be interesting if you could do some of the pages via print outs or even handwritten/drawn!!!
That would be so cute
Would be cute but if you get a hardback journal the cover might be more substantial?
@@shannahupp4054 The kind of notebook I'm talking about has a cardboard cover.
Print out some spells and potions to glue onto some of the pages! I'm thinking of doing the same... but for me!! lol

Beth...... stop. I can't even handle this, it's so good.
The book is one of the most fun diys I’ve seen in a while. You did a fantastic job on it!!
YOU DEFINITELY HAVE A TRUE TALENT AND AN EYE FOR DECORATING !!! GREAT JOB AND THANK YOU .🎃💛🧡🖤👻🧙♀️
She really does!
That spellbook is SO COOL. Omg.
"I wasn't planning on doing Halloween DIYs" ummm... Why? 😢 That book is amazing! ❤️❤️❤️
This is one of the best Holloween tutorials I've seen this year!
The skeleton mirror is amazing, and the book should win some kind of award like “Best TH-cam DIY Ever.”

Dollar Tree has glow-in-the-dark nail polish right now. Might be fun to add some touches of that to Halloween decor
