I just recently learned that spells are like recipe books you take what you know from the spell and add what you want whether its just a change of words or technique or ingredients. With ingredients you don't really need handles or anything they just help. If you mess up on certain incantations and it doesn't matter it just helps bring the spirit if done right.
Charm bags serve as magical amulets, and can make as gifts for festivals. Here's how you can make one.
You may need:
Squares of Fabric
Small stones or crystals
Dried herbs or flowers
Yarn or ribbon, cut into 36 - 42'' lengths.

1.Select the fabric, stones, herbs and yarn based upon the purpose of your Charm bag.
2.If have, blend your herbs and dried flowers together in a large bowl, or use your mortar and pestle.
3.Visualize the purpose of your Charm bag. If you like, offer an incantation as you blend them. For example, if you want to make one as a gift, you may say something like,
''These herbs I mix and happily blend
A gift to bestow upon a friend.
A blessing of love to you from me,
As I will, so it shall be.''
4.Place a stone in the center of the fabric, and then add about a half teaspoon of your herb mixture.
Now you can wear it as an amulet, or give them to people as gifts!
5.Gather up the corners of the fabric square, twist to form a pouch, and then tie shut with a length of yarn or ribbon. Knot the yarn securely, and then tie at the end so that people can wear it as an amulet.
6.Before distributing these to your family and friends, consecrate them to represent their sacred purpose you can do this as part of a ritual, or by leaving them under the moonlight overnight. Treat them as you would any other magical tool.
Making these are useful for witches who travel a lot. You can also make these for your witch fellows as gifts.

The first thing you'll need to do is decide what items you want to include in your portable altar. Some people like to put in every single magical tool they own, five different decks of Tarot cards, and their entire gemstone collection, but I've found that simple is usually better. In fact, if you keep just four items in there, you've probably got it made -- and those are the ones associated with the four classical elements.
If your tradition requires you to use other items, you can add those as well. Some things you might want to include in your altar kit are:
A crystal
Tarot cards
A small statue representing deity
A bell
Finally, add a piece of fabric to use as an altar cloth. It doesn't have to be big, just large enough to spread all of your tools on, so you can perform a working anywhere you may be.
You'll need to decide whether you want to use a box or a bag. If you plan to carry your altar kit on a plane, backpack, purse or other place where space is at a premium, go with a bag. If it's something you're going to keep in your home, or maybe take over to a friend's, you can probably use a box.
The great thing about a bag that enhances portability is that your bag can double as an altar cloth. To make a circular piece of material into a carrying bag, simply stitch a 1/2 hem around the edge of the circle, and run a cord through it. Knot the cord at the ends, and then when you pull it tight you'll have a drawstring bag that unfolds into a round altar cloth.
If you want to use a box, great -- there are tons to choose from. You can get a plain wooden one from a craft store and paint it or decorate it. You could use an old cigar box and cover it with fabric and embellishments, or you can buy a pre-made carved or decorated box from one of the thousands of retailers who specialize in metaphysical gifts.
A spell for making a charm. Can also used for enchanting objects.

Hold your charm in your hand, concentrate on it and say out loud,
''I dedicate this charm of (your name) to the highest good of all who come to contact with it''
After you say the spell, hold it under running water for a few minutes and the place it in sunlight or moonlight for a few hours. If your charm is fragile, just 'programme' the charm and simply end up with ''So mote it be''.

Be sure to light the Orange candle on the first day of casting by its self. It will be burned for 8 days. On the second day of casting light both the orange and green candles. On the third day of casting light all three candles. The total spell length is 8 days. The number of days the candle is burned corresponds to abundance as well as the oils being used and the Goddess/God being envoked. This whole spell is about acquiring money specifically.
If you canīt concentrate well, and everything drags your attention, this is the right spell for you.

Light candle and chant: "My concentration let it be high for maths (or whatever subject). I want it to got it all under my control. So mote it be." Then blow out candle and breathe in a little smoke.
You can go without the alfalfa if none is on hand. Take Alfalfa leaf, clover leaf, and cabbage leaf, and ground them up. Sprinkle some into your chamomile tea, then chant this:
"Fortuna, Tyche, goddess of luck. Grant me your guiding hand for one day so I may succeed. You are a glory, the maker of luck. Favor me, though I do not deserve to be in your presence. So mote it be."
Then take a drink of the tea, finish it all. You will (hopefully) have good luck for one day. It's also very good to send her a burnt offering, like roasting marshmallows over a candle in her name if you haven't anything better.
Take the quartz and hold it in your hand. Hold it loosely. Do not squeeze. Put the ice cube in your mouth and close your eyes. Bite down on the ice and turn over the quartz in your hand three times. Chew up the ice and swallow it. In the next 24 hours, try singing. You will be better.
