The Potions Room

As per usual I was making things, then got distracted, then made something else.

And this potions room happened in all the making.

Ok, not so much a room as a wee magical corner... but BAM! It happened.

There are a boatload of magical ingredients mentioned in Potter potions on those shelves.

There's a nice wobby stack of bottles (looking very much like the stacks of containers in my tupperware cupboard.)

Tucked atop there are important scrolls, magic books, a pillar candle, toadstools and a crystal ball.

The bottom door do open, but I've left them empty. I thought it would be fun, in case someone wants to hide a surprise inside.

But if you'd like to create your own magical corner, here are a bunch of the supplies I used to create this piece:

Corner Room Box
Mini Oak Hutch A whole whack of stuff from HERE
Old Fashioned Grocery Cans
Little Potions Collage Sheet
Fairy Godmothers Cupboard Collage Sheet
Handmade and Set of Miniature Books (to make your own check out my Miniature Openable Book Tutorial)
Tiny Wooden Bowls

This isn't a complete list of all the doodads used in this piece. Some elements are old or odd bits. Have a poke around AlphaStamps miniatures selection, there's loads there. Have a wander through your local $ store and see if there are wee things you can plunder. For the rest, hobble and cobble bits together to fit the picture in your head.
