I see, well my intentions in the case of the shirt would be both physical and spiritual protection. In layman's terms, something that would protect me from a bad spirit as well as a hard hit impact. If materials are also a factor what would be the wise way?

Question 1: Is it possible to enchant ordinary items to make them more powerful and or manifest special abilities?
yes. it comes down to the energy you charge and focus onto the item. certain items [like crystals and herbs] would be easier than others because they have energy. magick is energy found in nature, items in nature have energies that can help in certain situations [how ever little it may be] if you charge these items with further energy you run a greater chance than if you, say, charged a soup ladle with protective energy. items with symbols or a symbolic meaning, are personal. if you feel safe, or that the item will bring you luck or love, then it will. symbols aren't universal, some people feel connected with certain ones and nothing with others. in the end, it's the energy and importance we give these symbols that grants them their power.
Question 2: is there a real version of the infamous glamor spell: A spell that makes certain illusions look and feel real.
you mean a spell to make you change how you look for real? perhaps. a spell that claims overnight you'll look completely different, or a spell that will change the shape of your eyes or nose, those won't work. you're you, magick cannot change bone structure. however, i do believe a spell like a morning dew beauty spell where you collect the morning dew and wash your face with it while saying a chant, would work. spells where you need to get into a daily routine, coupled with a chant, i feel would. this is because you're not only working to solve whatever you don't find attractive [acne, dry skin, oily hair] and you're asking the goddess [or whoever] to help you achieve the goal sooner than if you were doing this on your own. no glamour spell works overnight, and very few work at all physically. if you're new, i'd avoid these type of spells until you get better footing.
Question 3: If these are possible what consequences are the result of such possibility.
if we're still talking about glamour spells, you'll see results sooner. if the spell was to backfire, you'd see your problem amplified. example, if you wanted to get rid of your acne, but you just said a chant then sat around with a bag of chips waiting for the gods to help you, your punishment would probably be a bad breakout the next day or the day after. if you were to cast a glamour spell to create the illusion of great beauty, the backfire would be the opposite. when any spell backfires, think of the opposite or worse case scenario and you'll get an idea of what awaits you if it should happen. this is different from a curse or the threefold law though. curses and hexes are different, so it's hard to give a general what will happen. most common would be a long string of bad luck, bad grades, depression or anxiety, and possibly some injuries. if it's the threefold law [depending on the spell] you'd probably see the same thing [bad luck, bad grades, possibly minor injuries] just clumped together, and it would only be 3 bad things. for example your backpack breaks on the way to school, you're late for class, and fail a quiz all on the same day. if you cast a negative spell around that time, these would be karma's doing. finally, if a spell was to backfire, as i said depending on the spell, it will be the opposite; a love spell backfires the person hates you, a good luck spell backfires it's bad luck. if this happens, you can cleanse and protect. [i think there's a spell to cancel a spell you cast which backfired]
about your clothes dilemma, enchanting man made objects is harder, so try to enchant clothes that are as close to 100% cotton as you can, to make it easier on you. a spell can protect you from negative energy and entities, but i'm not so sure about physical attacks. it can get people who wish you harm to avoid you, but if you were hit, you'd still feel the pain.
Thank you. As for the Glamour I asked about that one not for appearance changing or any of that BS from the Craft movie, if you excuse my acronyms. I was wondering if there was a spell similar to that. See, I understand even the fictional Glamour if it did exist would only work on physical appearence on a human body. However what I am looking for may seem either impossible, or if possible extremely advanced. It's similar to the concept of Glamour making the illusion feel real, however instead of altering appearances of the human body, it is essentially to make a long story short. "The image that becomes reality." Like for example hypothetically, if I was to find a well made replica of Excalibur, would it be possible with the right amount of energy and training, to turn that object not only into an illusion of the real thing, but also give it the feel of it as well. It sounds crazy I know, but I thought I would ask.
