About this Event
Calling all potioneers!
Here at Grimm & Co we have been concocting potions, lotions, elixirs and herbaceous brews for centuries. All manner of magical beings flock to the doors of the Apothecary every day to pick up their much needed supplies of our most popular potion ingredients; ingredients such as Success Stimulant, A Pinch of Happiness and even Grandma's Scabs.
Some ingredients are better sourced at different times of the year, and the winter months bring a special added magic to anything we bottle.
At this time of year potions need to be especially potent; churning out Festive Cheer and Essence of Fallen Snow is no easy feat!
Graham Grimm, our proprietor, is known for being rather grumpy and grinchy, and not unlike a certain Scrooge, so the Shop Elves think that in order to make the best seasonal potions for our magical customers, we need to turn to the wonderful young people of South Yorkshire for help.
Come join the Head Shop Elf as we prepare the labels, create a list of ingredients (and side effects for humans), and devise a name for your brand new potion. Sift and funnel the ingredients into the glass jar, add a cork stopper and your label, and take home your very own unique bottled mini potion, perfect as a hanging decoration!
The Head Shop Elf will also act as storyteller to share a festive tale told aloud to the group as they make their potions.
