Glittering magic potion bottles are a fun DIY project for Halloween that are super popular on TikTok and CZcams right now. You fill a glass vial with rubbing alcohol or water and glycerin, add in some food coloring and mica powder, give it a shake, and a color changing swirling storm appears inside. The problem is that this effect only lasts for a few seconds and we want the magic in our witch's potions to last forever.
Grandin Road, Home Depot, and Target all sell animated crystal balls that have an automatic swirling motion, so we took our inspiration from these. The effect is surprisingly easy to create, and in this video we will teach you how to make your own swirling potion bottles.
The mechanism is hidden inside an ancient spellbook. We show you how to make a faux leather effect in our DIY Spellbook video. ( • How to make a Spellboo... )
These DIY potion bottles are perfect addition to your 2022 Halloween decorations! They'd fit in wonderfully with a Happy Potter, Hocus Pocus, or Witchy theme. It would even be cool for a mad scientist or wizard.

I have an idea with the giant spider prop
You get the fake spider web stuff from the store and get a fake plastic skeleton and wrap the skeleton with web and pose it and put it in the giant web
P.s. I did something like this
That would be cool with some type of light to make it look really magical.
@Bbqsauce good idea bro imma *TRY* to do that for halloween
I don't understand why you need a hole in the cover. If your magnets are strong enough they will work through the cardboard cover.
To make the spooky automatic, you could add a foil pressure switch to the inside cover of the book. That way the weight of the bottle would connect the power to the motor and turn it on without needing to switch it on.
It has to be really close to work well through the thick glass bottom.
fun fact: they also use magnetic stirrers in chemistry labs. You can ditch making the inside magnet its own apparatus by just getting a stir bar. Mixing plates are kinda bulky so the motorized magnet is probably the best option for hiding in props, but using an electromagnet plate can make your potion spin really fast and create little whirlpools so that could be an option.
Intentionally creating a whirlpool and labeling the potion appropriately ("Tornado Potion" or something, maybe in sky blue) sounds like it'd be great!
yes!!!
I wonder if this would also work to create the illusion that the potion or maybe even a small cauldron is being stirred by itself?
@@d-padqueen1103 omg i would love to see this
homebrewers also use these for doing yeast starters, so if you have a homebrew shop near you, you can potentially find stir plates and stir bars. They'll be more costly than the DIY ones shown here, of course. Another way that homebrewers make their own stirplates is gluing magnets to an old computer fan's blades, if you've got any of those kicking about.
I did a edible version of this for my kids birthday party. You get your hands on some butterfly pea flower tea and edible luster dust. I steeped the tea to make a beautiful blue color. I then made vials with instant lemonade powder with a little bit of luster dust mixed in (I called it fairy powder). The kids put the blue liquid in their flasks, and then added the lemonade powder and stirred. The deep blue turns purple from the lemonade acidity and also turns swirly from the luster dust. The end result was a basic lemonade for the kids to drink that just looked magical. I added some Hibiscus flavoring to add some exoticness to the flavor and another step, but you could end it there.
Awesome!
That is so creative! Amazing!
Thank you!!
How cool!
Ngl probably going to use this for my birthday party tomorrow 😂
Such a clever idea, love it!
Thanks, y'all! 🤘😄
Omg you watch them too??? Love you both and what you come up with is always out of the box. Pleaaase collab my life would be complete! 🙏🏻
You could add some led lights and a magnetic switch to the base unit and if you use tissue paper as a diffuser you can get rid of the food coloring. You can also use one of those remote control led lights that change color, really dress it up.
Yes!!!
I was thinking that too! Not enough light that it would peek out from under the bottle but enough to give the liquid its own light source!
Ditto.
Black light...
Inwas thinking the same.
I had a fantasy video game themed birthday party this past summer and I had drinkable glitter potions! I used edible glitter from Brew Glitter and they were great! A little goes a long way. Friend of mine is great at making drinks and he used a mix of blue and red Brew Glitter to make a concoction he dubbed "Unicorn Tears".
This is a really neat way to have a magical glitter potion for a prop! Thanks for sharing this!
Awesome!!!!
We 100% need edible alcohol sparkle potion tutorials!
Hahah yesss
luster dust (eatable glitter) plus koolade or gaderade or any other somewhat colored drinks works
I remember something called Viniq that was a Shimmer Liquer.
But you can also use edible pearl dust
I second that!!!🤡🤡🤡
I third the motion! Give us the drink tutorial!!!!!!!!!!
Professor Snape would’ve been proud ✨✨
You guys never fail to impress me. This is so wicked easy. I can’t believe this, I have one similar that I bought yrs ago, and it stopped working a month after I bought it. But now, thanks to ya’ll, I can fix it and amaze my friends with it.
Your stuff is always so great, I am glad to see it getting more popular and always happy to see a new one drop. Great ideas and I appreciate that you not only show nay blunders but also how to work around them.
OMG I've been trying to figure out a way to do this for my Hocus Pocus Life potion to add with my Black Flame candle. THANK YOU!!! Now I just need the supplies
Nice yeah!!! Everything is in the video description 😄
@@WickedMakers Already on it, LOL best part is most of the supplies I need are ones I need for other projects :)
Omgosh that is soo cool! I'm definitely going to have to make one this week!!! You guys have totally come up with the most awesome Halloween props this year!!! 👏
Thank youuuu they’re so fun to make
Thank you for this vid, i cant TELL you how many times ive seen D&D TikTok or fantasy vids where people make these and refuse to list ingredients or process. Now i can finally make something ive had on my mind for years! THANK YOU
Love the knowledge ! I just bought the crystal ball prop and was trying to figure it out .. Ba bam ! There you are !
Love u guys ! You make it soo easy .. magick potions bottles for all !
Thank you for sharing been wanting to know what they use to make these and love the idea you came up with will definitely be using it.
I love it! Just ordered all the stuff to make a few! Thank you so much for sharing this!
This came at the best time....just yesterday I was wondering how to make something like this. THANKS, for doing all the thinking for me...lol....OH, and I will cut the circle first and apply tissue after...lol. Many thanks for all the fantastic inspiration! A joy to watch and learn a lot!
I love it! Will have to give this a try. I really appreciate the planning to make sure this is doable by the average person. So many props require specialized tools, paints, and materials making it impossible or intimidating to recreate.
I love how you guys work as a team to create amazing projects. You guys are so inspiring!
Thank you!
This is amazing. I saw a prop that used the same mechanic in your crystal ball example yesterday, but the aesthetic just wasn't exactly what I was looking for so I passed it up, but I loved the swirly green look. A potion bottle on top of a weathered book is much more my style, and honestly something I'd keep out all year as just a generic apothecary/wizard decor since nerd.
Wow this is one of the coolest projects y'all have done because it's so simple yet clever!
A perfect use for a Twilight novel.
Although Stephenie Meyer is the author, The Host is not a Twilight novel.
Nice! Pure genius to even think of wanting a swirling potion bottle in the first place, let alone the mechanics behind it. (and thank you for making them simple and with parts easily and inexpensively accessible to all of us!). :D
im new to this channel and ive been eating up your videos like halloween candy! so much fun watching you two create something! the dynamic between you is so lovely and the things you come up with are not just creative but inspiring and downright jaw-dropping! so glad to have found you!😍
Thank you so much!!
@@WickedMakers Thank _you_ !💗
I am so happy and excited to be making Halloween and Fall DIY’s again! It’s my favorite time of year to watch and make crafty videos on CZcams. Thank you for sharing your creations with us. I’d love to learn more from a talented creator like you!
This is amazing. I literally said, "WOW!" out loud when you showed the magnet trick.
Awesome. The power of magnets!
Also there is apparently mica powder that makes it change color when agitated.
Love this one! I have a bunch of empty spell books that just sit there. I bet I can make a setup that's stacked with several "potions"! Thank you for another great video!
Perfect!!
2 things … I make potion cocktails for Halloween parties. Edible dust in the drink and a small piece of dry ice to keep it bubbling!
Second, I made a storm bottle but it’s not great so please make that!!! I used a cork with attached fairy lights and poly fil I had colored with grey streaks. It’s a storm cloud in a bottle. I wish the lights would flicker though
Whoa!!! That sounds fun 😄
If the fairy lights are plug in, you can attach a 'fluorescent starter' to an extension cord. It gives off a flickering effect on any light plugged into it. I did this on a couple of random strands inside the smoldering fire for my wicked makers witch cauldron. It looks great and the fluorescent starters are like 2 for $5 on amazon.
I have been looking for something like this for so long… This is freaking awesome. I love that you could make this and swap out bottles. Also, I’m usually bothered when someone destroys a book to make a project, but… not this time. You’re good.
Inspired! No joke, you two are my number one chanel pick, this Halloween Season. Every video's been a hit with me. So excited. Thank you.
I got a jumpstart on Halloween’23 and made one of these today! LOVE IT! Thanks for the awesome idea and detailed instructions! ❤
Omg this is great. I was working on potion bottles for this year so now I just need the magnet and motor. Thanks so much
Omggg tysm for another video!! Your videos are so amazing & handy when I’m trying to look for the new inspiration for making things for Halloween 🎃 so can’t thank you enough! If I were y’all’s neighbor I would be so happy to see all these in person! Hope y’all have an amazing Halloween when the day comes! 🧡🍂🍁🖤🎃👻
😄😄😄😄 thanks for watching 🤘🏼🤘🏼
@@WickedMakers I- im speechless they replied lol. You’re more than welcome y’all’s videos are truly amazing like ahh the way art is art with y’all’s Halloween pieces you guys find. Making me wanna try it lol so thx again! For always making my days!
I am so glad I have these tutorials at my disposal so I can spice up my Halloween. You guys are awesome!
Love it! Thank you for your very thorough tutorial!!
Thanks for sharing! You guys come up with the coolest ideas for Halloween and I absolutely ❤️ this!
Another awesomely wicked project! You guys rock! Keep em comin!
This so awesome! I have planned to do a potion cabinet for our haunt for next year! I will have to save this video so I will be successful at this next year. Thanks for doing this. I learn so much from you guys!
This is so cool! You guys are such an inspiration for people like me who are missing the creative gene. I just ordered all the stuff to make the floating ghost girl using your Amazon links so wish me luck and thanks again so much for all you do to inspire the rest of us! 🥰
Awesome!! And thank you. 🤘🏼😄
Discovered this channel a couple of days ago and have been binging a lot of vids. Love the way your videos are put together and edited.
Thanks! 🤘🏼😄
This is awesome......love all your videos....so keen to see what you do as full timers outside of Halloween
Thank you!! We’re excited to be able to make more stuff. 😄
Thank you, I've made some potion bottles and have been thinking about how to do this. Not only did you do it, it's tested and works great!
The view count on this video will be phenomenal I'm sure.
Totally going to make some sensory potion bottles now! Btw, clear school glue is cheap and easily available and also can be used to thicken water for sensory bottles.
As always Totally Awesome!!! Great idea! Thanks for sharing! You two come up with the best ideas.
Thanks!!
You guys are knocking it out of the park with the projects this year!!!
Thank you!!!!
That's the best use for a Twilight book I've ever seen!
lol it's not twilight, it's The Host
Hahah
OMG.. i made these potions for my wife and a few people.. you guys just took it to a whole new level! going to do this for my wife shes going to love it!
I've been wanting to make potions for a while, and I've brainstorming how to do something like this but your method is super smart! I gotta make at least one of these.
Perfect!!
Definitely making this. I love Halloween. It's my favorite time of the year. Though, if I could, my house would be decorated for "halloween" ALL YEAR lol. My five year old son and I sit and binge watch your videos all day sometimes lol. Love it. ❤️
for so long, I have been trying to think of a way to do something like this for ectoplasm to go with all my Ghostbusters collectibles! awesome video!! thank you for doing this and giving me a great idea and how to execute it!
You guys are "wickedly" amazing!!!!!! I can't wait to try this.
😄😄😄
Absolutely amazing! I've been try to figure out how to make bottle contents to swirl around. Captured souls of the undead etc. Thank you for making it so easy, I wondered if the motor would get hot because I found something like that in something once that felt really warm and thought it was defective or something.
Nice yeah! This one doesn’t seem to get hot, at least with the single battery voltage.
I'm trying out the Cauldron u guys made with adding work. It look awesome so far. These ideas u guys have are amazing. Good work on the Halloween 🎃 stuff.
Awesome!!!
Watching from Spain. Thank you so much, this is just what I was looking for. You have a New follower.
I really don't say things like this often, but watching your channel has become a "comfort watch''for me. I really just love Halloween and diy videos and you two hust genuinely work so well together and I love to see a great team that builds each other up and I can tell you genuinely enjoy the projects. ❤❤❤♥️
Super cool! Thanks for sharing. I'm using this.
I'm so excited for this video! I'm actually going to start decorating for Halloween today or tomorrow!
Nice!!!!
Go watch more of their videos for more great ideas!
4:36 I love that the book you used was The Host by Stephanie Meyer! very on brand for a spooky DIY
This is awesome!!! Thanks so much for some genius ideas 💀🎃🧪⚰️🪦
I was in England a while ago and my friends bought some magic potion drinks in the shambles that looked like this but we’re consumable. They were awesome.
This is totally AWESOME! Thanks for another great video.
I’m obsessed with this channel. There’s no more videos for me to binge 😢😢
I was literally making potions like this yesterday. I have everything except the motors. So happy my potions will be spinning on their own as fast as amazon can ship them.
Nice!!! That’s awesome.
@@WickedMakers Though, mine are tasty cocktails and only use edible ingredients. Food sparkles instead of mica. I will need to make sure the magnet I drop into the potion is food safe.
@@WickedMakers Also, did you think about putting a light inside the book shining up into the potion? I am trying to find a way to get that to work.
I have been wanting to figure out how to do this effect for a while - you guys rock!!
I've been watching your videos with my daughter and we both love them! We decided it would AMAZING if you did a series of stuff you make with your kids!!
Yeah? Ok nice 😄
Perfect timing, Home Depot has several items that do just this and I was very impressed. Now I can make my own. =D THanks!
I am totally gonna make this!! I think I might add some lights to the bottom of the bottle:) :) so excited!
Love this idea. I add edible lustre dusts and edible glitter to my kids berry cordials… they love it . I change out the dust and glitters colours depending on event or season. A little shake or swirl and voilà sparkly juice.
Great job making this super simple!
Sweet. Nice diy.
Can't wait for the next vid.
Thank you.
I fell in love with your videos, like your ideas are cool and unique, love it!!!!
You guys always come up with amazing props!!
Nicely done. I've seen a video where you can add edible glitter with it, for any drinkable potion. There's also a color shift type with mica powder. I've got some odd shaped or decorated bottles.
Love, love, love all of your videos!!!
What a cool idea! Thanks for showing us your newest creation!
Thanks for watching!!
You two are the bomb. Great project.
Ok this is awesome ,thanks for sharing , need to look up your book transformation now
Awesome idea!!! I think I can use this for a witches crystal ball! 🔮
❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
That looks so awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Nice build. I've recently been thinking about using wireless leds in my builds. They would be perfect for making this potion glow. You'll have to waterproof them. A few coats of resin should do. You also a coil to provide an electromagnetic field. You can get them through Adafruit or you could repurpose a wireless phone charger.
love you guys!!! Keep that Halloween content coming :)
Oh wow! I always wondered how they did that. Great job! Thanks 😊
😄😄😄
That is so creative, love your work and videos! Boo!
Thank you for giving me a project to do with the kids that I didn't even know we needed!
love it always happy when you guys post cant wait to try this out during Halloween
That's really cool! I actually already have the glycerin in my house. I use it to make reusable mold material. I want a purple one!! Thanks for sharing. - Heidi
You guys are killing it!
0:57 as you were talking about how you could make it do it on it's own I immediately thought of Steve Mould's video about the Inverted Whirlpool Paradox in which he uses a magnetic mixer thing that has a long-ish magnet inside the liquid that is rotated by an external magnet on the machine he is using that stirs the liquid within! EDIT: 2:37 AND that's totally the route you go for! very nice!
My first video from this channel was the "Covid candy slide," I finally made one of your projects with the "Wicked Spells Book." Keep the awesome stuff coming.
You guys are absolutely awsome. Keep it up!
So amazing and so clever thank you! 😀
Very creative! Love this! I was always thinking about how something like this could be done. Thank you for solving this mystery and posting this. So amazing 🤘💀. Definitely would also like to see the edible version too!
Just wondering, how long does the battery last for if running constantly?
Really cool idea and a nice explaining but Short video! Thank you!
I LOVE this! Conceptually simple, but it looks so cool. It's even better when you realize the book is Twilight. You can always find those at thrift stores 🙂
Awesome idea with the magnets. Also I think cutting the hole in the book, may have been easier if you used a holesaw. But then I guess others may feel like they couldn't do the project. Which makes since why you didn't go that route. And thanks for the awesome content.. take care
Love the content! Any idea what you used as a nut to connect the motor to the quarter?
I really love the idea! I think you could also use the magnet, glitter watery thingy on a clear spherical ball and attach it to a staff for a magic wizard effect! I would love to see it :)
Awesome! thanks for sharing!
Ok, that was literally the coolest thing! As you were showing the build process, something came to mind….wondering if add i few drops of glow in the dark paint would actually give this a glow as well as the moving magic!? I may be tempted to try myself, but it was a wild thought!
You guys come up with the greatest spooky ideas!
