Sudden epiphany: THINK OF ALL OF THE WITCHY THINGS YOU CAN HIDE AROUND YULE!!!!!! EXAMPLES, HERE!!!!!

Protective ward snowflakes, found at this blog.

Garlands with different herbs, woods, or fruit for your specific purpose, from Funky Junk Interiors.

More gorgeous wardy goodness on your front door in the form of a wreath! You could even add herbs that suit your purposes, like rosemary sprigs for protection.

And more garlandy goodness from this blog! You could use this beautiful orange garland as an offering for your household fae, gods, or spirits.

All of these decorations are wonderful ways practice some craft during the holidays, especially if you’re heading home to be with your family who are either less than supportive of your practices or don’t know about them. And they’re all gorgeous!!!

Working on my Grimoire🌸

[cunningcelt]

Holy crap on a cracker that is stunning

[mandrakeandroses-deactivated202]

Some people expect my grimoire to be full of illustrations and art purely on the basis that I’m an art student… not the case. Sometimes I really really don’t want to draw, but that doesn’t make me any less creative. Anyway the point is, if you hate drawing or one day you just don’t feel like it - it’s fine. You don’t have to have loads of drawings in your grimoire! You can use typography/calligraphy (search Pinterest for a buttload of tutorials), or like I’ve done here, collage some papers in and use some pens to write on them. You can make some really nice grimoire pages without drawing. Just throwing it out there for anyone who, like me, felt pressured to for a long time. It stopped me writing in my grimoire and that was sad. 

[mandrakeandroses-deactivated202]

This is one of the few pages I kept in my grimoire when I started rewriting it (yep, I pulled a considerable chunk of pages out of my leather-bound grimoire and started again - it’s actually not noticeable though and it looks better now). I dunno, I just like the simplicity of it. I have a huge collection of different papers that I collect. They come in handy sometimes. :)

[mandrakeandroses-deactivated202]

Working on my grimoire today. These are my favourite pages so far! It took me ages to illustrate all the planets but I think it was worth it. I haven’t been drawing much lately so it was nice to do something like this. Planetary correspondences are from cosmic-witch (:

[dumbbbunnnyy-deactivated2021021]

looking good!

So beautifully done!!
