Another trick with the hole saw is to brace the bottom with a block of wood. This allows you to keep your hands and fingers away from the saw blade, but still provide positive pressure while drilling. It also prevents tear-through on the back side.

I’ve just started my own witch craft based business and I might need to make one or two of these as decor for when I sell at markets and stuff…

This was just incredible!

Love the video.

Wow, this is very cool!

Once again you come in clutch. I was doing so much research on ways to do exactly this. I have never heard of one of these before, so thank you for introducing me!

I like this one too !!!

Ok, how slick is this?!?!? Absolutely love it, what a great idea. :)

Your job is great 👍❤

Oh, my goodness! How fun! This would also be so beautiful with one of your winter ice/snow potions! ❄️ 💗 (Thank you to your hubby for the safety tips!)

Wow you really always impressive me. Thank you for this video. Love it.

That is so awesome, I saw something similar before but you had to make the motor and stuff and this is so much easier. I love that you can just buy the spinner. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I will definitely be getting one. Beautiful potion and great job. Love it. 🧡🤎💛🍁🍂

I just wanted to say how much I admire what you do. Such a creative mind….you’ve inspired me to make my own potions. I never even knew about magnetic stirrers. I got one of my own and set it all up. Thank you so much!! Truly a fan.

I love you

I love your page...would you consider showing us your vision of DnD potions without dice in them? I would love to see how you used the description of those potions to create a real version of them :)

I might have to do that!

So much fun!

Your videos are just as awesome as the potions themselves. So creative! Just a thought and not sure if it will work but would heating the air in the bottle before inserting the cork keep it in place better? Kind of like jarring jelly? Once the air cools it would create a vacuum…maybe. My hats off to your creativity. Please keep up the amazing work!

Awwww thank you! 💜🧪 It might I’ll definitely do some testing 😉

Is the spinner strong enough to work through the book without cutting out the hole? Or maybe a thin sheet of modeling plastic over the cover of the book before you put the crepe paper on it? Just trying to think of ways to avoid the dip in the cover. 🙂 Cool item though. Definitely going on my wish list.

A piece of paper is about as thick you can go. Because your bottle has the glass it goes through too. You could definitely test it out though.

I'm thinking print the label on plastic transparency not paper, so that you have a clearer vision on the bottle. Also, if you can turn on the spinner for 1 second every minute it will create a better effect as well as save your battery by a factor of 60, but that would require a special circuit as that spinner doesn't appear to have that function.

Great video! I love all the ideas you have for the bottles. I worked in a lab at a gold mine for 30 years and we used these everyday. When I made my display I used a plug in with a timer so it turns on/off on its own. The plug in is stronger so no need to drill the top hole in the book. It is a bit more expensive, well worth it tho. I also use a glass skull instead of a tall bottle. Thank you for taking so much time out of your day to give us your take on creating all these amazing items! I am working on having a light go up into the glass potion bottle. I will have the skull mixing on one side and the lighted potion bottle on the other side.

Be sure to store any hot glued items in a temperature controlled environment. I forgot to mention, not all glue is created equal. Here in the hot country hot glue does not work so well. The temperature goes up to 120 degrees in the summer so anything stored in a shed will fall apart. I use both E6000 and hot glue. Hot glue holds quickly and E6000 withstands the temperature changes.

So awesome!! Would you have any tips in transportation/postage for gifts etc? Can you seal the cork with glue as well to help stabilise and will it last for that? Would just be so scared to send potions to someone and it come apart in different temperatures 🥺

I was just watching The Christmas Chronicles 1&2. I have a suggestion for a Christmas potion from the movie Elf Bain. That would be fun to add to a Christmas potion display. 🎄

I love this bottle. I have two comets so to speak. One is why change the color if your going to keep it swirling?? Two is can you put two different power colors in a bottle to spin or will they just mix into one color? Anyway it's a cool bottle. Thanks for your time in showing how to do it. Lovely.

They will mix into one color. It’ll change once you turn it off and let it settle. Then change again when you turn it on.

Yeah I kinda figured that they would mix into one color. But thanks for answering that. But if you want it to run for a party and so you don't turn off, that's why I said why change the color. But anyway it's a cool way to show them off during a party.

I second this!

I used Gorilla Wood Glue on a end table leg, letting it dry for a week, using Painter's tape to hold it in place as it dries. I turned the table over,setting it carefully down and put a mini Christmas tree (no ornaments)on top,and it fell apart.

Gorilla glue (not their hot glue, just regular glue) needs moisture to work. You have to dampen both surfaces before applying the glue.

It doesn’t make very much noise. Some of it depends on the bottle size etc.

Is it possible to fit two slimmer glass bottles on top instead of 1 bottle?

My power bank will run until it has no power left only when it’s running. It doesn’t shut off per se it’s just in sleep mode until I use it. if you’re wanting to run it for hours on end hook it up to a cord to a plug in.

Yes wicked makers made a spinner like 2 or 3 years ago that was a handmade motor in a carved out book. I used a magnetic stirrer which has been around for decades, I used a book box because it makes sense with potions to have books. They are not the same. Besides they didn’t give credit to the “videos of potions with alcohol and mica or water and glycerin” credit either. No idea will ever truly be new it’s just your take on it. The execution of mine is not the same; not to mention mine is more easily created for non-engineers.

How many drops of glycerin do you use? I made 2 small potion bottles, tried to do the color changing, used the 70% isopropyl alcohol food coloring and mica powder, but they don't look the same. I think I need to add a few more drops of glycerin but how much is too much? I want that beautiful silk like look to the liquid.
