Come into the workshop and turn an ordinary laboratory magnetic stirrer into a magical, self stirring potion.
In this project, I’m creating an Illusion Potion inspired by old fortune-tellers by
using an old whiskey bottle, mica powder, alcohol inks, and a little bit of craft magic, we’ll create a swirling potion before building a handmade case to hide the machinery underneath. With papier-mâché, air-dry clay and paint this ordinary machine becomes something that looks right at home in a spooky Halloween display.
⚠️The finished potion is a decorative prop and is not intended for consumption.⚠️
