Potions -identify the potion
craft something that resembles the potion as it is brewing or the ingredients used to make it. This can include:
Colors that the potion turns during brewing – turquoise, pink, red, blue, silver or green. (You can use one or more of these colors but it should be obvious that you are using one of these colors in your project.)
Craft something that resembles one of the ingredients used in the potion – fairy wings, dragonflies, eggs or seahorses.
Crafting something that resembles the brewing process itself – heating and adding items to get a desired color (dyeing) – stirring the ingredients (in the round, spinning) – having to watch over it (needs your attention)
There may be bonus points if you identify the name of the potion in your turn in post.
