Amas Veritas, A Color Changing Love Potion and Spell Prop
The watching of Practical Magic is something I look forward to each year, it's just my favorite feel-good autumn movie. This potion channels the feelings of hope and love that wind through the movie.
-Flask-shaped glass bottle full of light twilight blue potion with white flower petals floating in it. (polyester, not natural) It changes to a swirling lavender with gold highlights when shaken. Settles back to blue in about 20 minutes of setting still, but please note, this potion doesn't always settle completely, because the pigment settles on the petals, and moves around when the potion is handled.
-Neck is wrapped in aged light dusty pink twine with silver-tone chain that loops around the neck. A scroll pendant and witch charm hang from the chain, the scroll holds the paper spell scroll.
-Hand-designed and aged label reads: "A potion and spell of true love. Will draw or repel love." It's sealed with water-resistant sealant for durability.
-Aged cork is sealed with waterproof glue and drizzled with silver-blue wax and stamped with a flower stamp.
-Scroll spell is hand-aged on both sides and reads:
"Amas Veritas
They will hear my call a mile away.
They will whistle my favorite song.
They can ride a pony backward.
They can flip pancakes in the air.
They'll be marvelously kind.
Their favorite shape will be a star.
And they'll have one green eye and one blue.
The person I dreamed of doesn't exist, and if they don't exist, I'll never die of a broken heart."
-Also included is a small, hand-aged sheet of parchment with the quote from the end of the movie, sealed with a broom wax seal. It reads:
"There are some things I know for certain: always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can."
*These bottles are intended to look old and worn. I hand age the labels, so they are faded and stained. Some are more stained and older looking than others, I enjoy the authentic, magical look!
- Though non toxic, do not ingest, for decoration only.
Questions welcome!
