Miranda's Mythical Apothecary

For this personal project, I created a series of relaxing glitter jars. Meant to sit on a side table or desk, you can shake up these jars and gaze at the beautiful, sparkling glitter float around to put your mind at ease! 
Each glitter jar was handmade. Different combinations of fine glitter, sequins, colored dyes, and liquids were added to a mason jar. While making the jars, I was inspired to give them magical potion themes. Every glitter jar was given a different name and magical "properties" based on their colors.
Next, I handmade the tags. One tag displayed the logo I designed. The second tag had the title of the potion, explanation, properties, and directions. Each potion had a unique explanation and inspiring properties. I wanted the properties to feel magical but also to realistically inspire and comfort the user. At the bottom of each was a "disclaimer", mainly meant for comedic effect.

Lastly, each tag was hole-punched and laminated with more glitter (You can never have too much glitter). The jars were then sealed and decorated with a rustic-looking bow.
Shake 'em up, watch the sparkles, and feel the magic!
