    Dawn is making: nest of dragon eggs, with a hatchling breaking it's way out through a crack in the egg. ... for the base of the nest, I’ll use twigs from an apple tree sapling, harvested during the full moon in mid-October. Apple trees are highly prized their love-inducing magic and healing powers. Then I will intertwine the hair from the mane of a unicorn and add down from the goose that laid the golden egg to gently cushion the brood.

    Spells, Hexes, charms, beseechings
    love potion: shake well and don’t tell
    Magic is afoot
    Talismans, Amulets, charms, pouches hanging above the doors
    Pointy wizard hat
    Skeleton in coffin
    Skull bowl, crystal ball holder, Skull bottle—add neck and cap, Candleholder—dip birthday candles in hot water to reduce in size. Use skull as base, add 3 candles
