Excellent set of old-timey poison labels is here. Be sure to check out the antidotes… some sound worse than the cure.
Apparently they go great on cocktail glasses and liquor bottles. We’re a little more sober these days, but perhaps we can slap a few on our Propel bottles.
Now, I’ve not decided how to use them for Halloween. I could rig up some nice new labels for our candy, pretzel, and gum stash.
While I’d bet the kids would get a huge kick out of them, all it would take is one humorless or litigious parent to ruin the fun.

I like these labels….very vintage! I totally think that putting them on candy is fine, perhaps be sure its very obvious that its a joke. There will always be the “negative nellies” out there that will freak out and think your really trying to poison the kids. I personally, as a mom, always check my kids candy anyway….and something like that I would look at, maybe even open it and see if its a joke. I think I could figure it out…I ain’t all that dumb.
