My own grimoire pages 🍂

I'm working on a project.

[local-hedgewitch]

I recently bought ‘A Year and a Day of Everyday Witchcraft: 366 ways to Witchify Your Life’ by Deborah Blake

If you’re interested in purchasing this book, try Amazon!

These are personal pages of my Grimoire.

I picked up this book because my craft needed a rebirth, and I figured I could share my journey! The book starts on January 1st, but I started my journal with today’s date: April 21st.

Today, we start off the journey by getting to know the Taurus sign. They are persevering, down-to-earth, stable. They’re dependent and prosperous. They work hard and play even harder. However, they can be stubborn, possessive. Resistant to change and self-indulgent. Overall. I love Taurus, they’re pretty loyal.

Each day as a little  activity to do, and today’s is “Indulging in your earthy side. Plant something or tend to your home.” I live in an apartment and I can’t really plany anything here, but I am going to take this day to spring clean the apartment.

If you want to try the activities, please @ me! I would love to see what you guys do.

Support yer local hedge witch by buying me a coffee! All funds are appropriated and go to my dream of publishing a Grimoire to help newer witches.

Post Bound Grimoire Tutorial

Materials

4 pieces of heavy-weight chipboard

Assorted Scrapbook Paper

Mod Podge

A Ruler

A Box Cutter or Exacto Knife

Something to Evenly Apply Glue

3 1 1/2" Screw Posts

3 1/2" Screw Posts

Awl

First you need to cut all of the pieces of chipboard. Above I have all if the dimensions of what I did:

2 pieces of chipboard that are 11 1/2" x 9 1/4"

4 pieces that are 11 1/8" x 1" for the posts

1 piece that is 11" x 8 1/2"

1 piece that is 11 1/8" x 2" (it is marked 1 1/2 and 1/2 but only one piece) for spine 1

1 piece that is 11 1/8" x 1/2" for spine 2

Next cover the three large pieces of chipboard with scrapbook paper of your choice. Be sure to fold over and glue down the excess.

Then, using strips (I used one that is 8" x 12" and another that is 4" x 12"), connect the pieces of chipboard with the spine pieces between them, with approximately 1/8" between each of the pieces. Fold over and glue down the excess again. Below is how the first two should look together.

Next fold pieces of scrapbook paper for the posts. I recommend starting from the middle and making a strip long enough for the spine, then use the post-chipboard pieces to fold on each side. They should look like the above.

(Forgot to take a picture!!!)

Using a 3 hole punch, punch the post-chipboard pieces.

Glue the post-chipboard pieces to the scrapbook paper and pierce holes through the paper using the awl. Ensure that the posts of the screw-posts are able to go through these holes.

Glue down the post mounts to their appropriate spots.

Apply some more scrapbook paper to cover up the chipboard and you're done!

You can load the book with paper by unscrewing the screw posts and filling it similar to that of a binder.

I made my own notebook/grimoire/book. It took me three days to make, and i made it out of a larger drawing book that was falling apart. I hand stitched the pages together and hand painted the cover.

As per the suggestion of a lovely anon, as an addition to this post about “messing up your grimoire”, I made a video talking about where to find books to recycle into a Grimoire as well as show you guys how I prep pages for use. I hope you guys find this helpful!
