Default Post #2 More cleaning & adding powder

There, she thought as she looked at her jar. Now you're ready for me to clean. She picked up the jar and pointed her wand at it. Wait...should I have cleaned it before I put the label on? Dirt on the outside of the lid won't hurt the inside of the jar will it? She frowned. She really didn't want to mess up the assignment all because she was too lazy to do it properly. She sighed, set the jar back down and removed the label.

Now I should be able to get it really really clean, I think. She took the lid off of the jar and cleaned the inside with the simple cleaning spell they used in Potions all the time. She'd gotten pretty good at it from practice, so she felt confident that this one would do the trick. "Scourgify!" She then placed the jar back down on the counter and aimed her wand at the outside, then on the inside of the lid, and then on the outside of the lid. "Scourgify, scourgify, scourgify!" Was it a little bit overkill? Maybe. But she had forgotten once already and wanted to be extra sure that she'd done it well enough to continue. In fact, she thought this jar was so clean it might even be able to perform surgery with it...somehow. It was just really clean.

Better re-label it then, she thought once she was satisfied with the amount of glints and glimmers shining off of her now super-fresh-and-clean jar. She picked up her label and felt that back of it. Not so sticky now...and it probably got dirt on it from the first time. Sigh. New label it is! And though she didn't want to be wasteful by using a new sticker, she knew it had to be done anyway, so she filled one out.

Star project!
There. Finally. Okay so now... She checked her notes. I need the ingredients. She pulled out her tins of helium and hydrogen that she'd gotten from the lesson and retrieved a table spoon to scoop the powder out with. Being extremely careful not to drop, spill, or breathe too heavily on any of it, she measured out one tablespoon each into her jar and quickly put the lid on it. Don't want any dust floating down into it now that the elements are inside! She screwed it shut tight, and then sat back to look at the jar.
