I'm going to be starting a grimoire!
Seems like a silly thing to be excited about, but I am. I'm going to put it in a binder, so I can rearrange it as needed. As of right now, everything is in my notes app or here on Tumblr. I need organization, so grimoire!
I will also be starting (provided I have the spoons) a master doc on different world mythologies.
So if anyone has any tips, tricks, or advice on either, I'd love to hear it <3

Finally went to forest and took pics of my Cailleach doll!
She is made from old paintbrush, wire and pipe cleaners with head of air-drying clay and body of wool yarn and recycled scraps of fabric. Her hair is the same yarn with some beads. I also gave her some jewerly and accesories from broken jewerly and some trinkets.
She was so fun to make and to photograph! It was great weather and just right amount of cold. ❄️

Solid Perfumes and Balms Recipe
One of my favourite spell forms is something I can physically wear like a perfume, balm or body butter. Whilst this is not a recipe I favour (I prefer spray on perfumes and liquid oils), its one that has served me well in the past for glamours, anti-anxiety, and a little luck before job interviews.
Apply to your wrists and neck for a perfume, or use to create a creme makeup product such as a blush or bronzer.
Generic Recipe Base:
Always be mindful of irritants like cinnamon when creating balms!
1 tablespoon of oil (jojoaba or any other neutral oil)
1 tablespoon beeswax or emulsifier wax
OR 1 tablespoon of coconut oil or shea butter and 1/2 tablespoon of wax
10-20 drops of essential oils for a perfume (or add until desired scent is achieved), for more subtle scents 3-5 drops
1/2 -1 tablespoon of mica powder or mineral powder to colour
Melt together the wax and oil or simply melt down a dense, solid oil or fat like coconut oil, adding in vitamin E oil and mix well
Stir in essential oil (or oil you have infused with your herbs), add in your mica powder if you wish to colour it
Allow to cool slightly and pour into a slightly heated, wide rimed jar and let sit to solidify completely before sealing it - old lip balm tins, tiny jam jars and balm jars work well to store this
_________
Prosperity and Luck for Job Interviews:
Melt down your liquid oil and wax, and mix well
Stir in 9 drops of prosperity oil (ylang-ylang, lemon, basil and mint) - I like to add things in threes, so three lots of three
Allow to cool and add to a small tin or jar and allow to cool at air temperature
_________
Glamour Creme/Cream Blush
Met together shea butter and wax - more wax will make a thicker, longer lasting blush whilst more aloe will make a smoother, more subtle one
Add in aloe vera and a glamour or love/attraction oil (rose, apple blossom, lavender and jasmine - as this is blush only add 3 drops!) and whisk until smooth, taking it off the heat
Slowly add in mica powders and cocoa powder a tiny pinch at a time until the desired colour is reached
add to a tine or jar and let cool at air temperature
Adapt the recipes as needed for what you have and to your own practice <3
_________
(I will be sharing some of my generic grimoire recipes each Wednesday (hopefully) with the intent on letting people adapt the recipes to suit their needs ... )

Just a quick mock up/lose sketch for a patch idea for my battle jacket I'm hoping to start soon inspired by Fenrir. Just got the basic idea and composition down so I have a reference for the real patch.

I saw these fingerless skeleton gloves and I thought they were so cool!!! I got so inspired I had to try a version of the idea out for myself! :)
I looked up a sewing pattern online and followed that. I cut out two pieces for each hand and sewed them together. I tried to make them a bit more roomy and not so snug, since it was my first time making them.
I used paint and reference photos to add the bones. It took quite a few layers and they're not perfectly accurate, but I think they turned out nice! 𐐒(୨୧ᵕᴗᵕ) 𓍊𓋼𓍊 <3

Wow, this has only been a year. I guess I was using those shoes for practically everything so makes sense they're starting to deteriorate.
Anyway
New shoes. New design. This will probably be my go to for all my work and walking shoes from now on
Literally just white shoes and acrylic paint
Intentions used this time
Work shoes: black for energy protection and green for financial assistance and keep my healthy. Pattern used to confuse and defuse targeted unwanted energies
Walking shoes: pink for self love, orange for courage and joy, yellow for happiness and inspiration, black for protection, white for release. Another dragon due to connections. Cherry blossoms for innocence and inner child healing. Cosmos for added joy and appreciating life. Same pattern to confuse and defuse targeted unwanted energy
Am I extra for taping fake flowers and feathers to my pens and paint brushes? Or am I extra for painting a pair of white shoes I have differently? Either way Im extra
*Me mentally imagining someone visiting asking for a pen*
Them: hey can I borrow a pen?
Me: yeah sure. Just go to the teapot and pick a flower
Them: ... What?
Witchy elements:
Pink flowers for self love
Feathers for the element of air to enhance creativity
The roses were a gift from my spouse a long time ago and roses overall are an all encompassing flower hence for various note taking
Yellow air dragon guardian
Blue water dragon guardian

City Magic: Painted Rock Wards
This post was released a week early over on my Patreon! You can subscribe for free to be notified of important projects announcements, or subscribe for as little as $2 a month to gain early access to my content, exclusive access to research/reading notes, and free digital goodies! Your support means the world to me and helps me to continue doing what I love.
We’ve all seen those pretty painted rocks over on Pinterest, right? These bad boys? Or perhaps you’ve even seen them around your neighborhood/public parks.
Traditionally, these are meant to be painted (sometimes with words of encouragement) and left in public spaces for people to take home, as an act of kindness. Some others paint them for their garden, either to deter pests with vibrant colors, or they’re used to label whatever’s in their garden.
Now, if you live in a big city, you probably have felt a disconnect from your craft or your practice. It’s difficult to connect with a nature-oriented spirituality, such as witchcraft, when you live in a concrete jungle! But there are many, many ways to feel connected to your craft, even if you don’t live in the middle of the woods or have a lot of nature around you. One of these ways is to connect with your neighborhood.
Your neighborhood has mass significance to your life, whether you realize it or not: this is where you live, where you work, where you breathe, where you practice your craft – you must make yourself known, and make the neighborhood known to yourself as well. One of the best ways to do this is to take walks!
Whenever you’re ready, take a walk through your neighborhood and bring a map, notebook, and a pen. As you walk, observe the behaviors of the residents around you. Do they seem to be struggling with anything? What kind of people are they like? Write these characteristics down. If you notice any parts of your neighborhood that evoke any specific emotions (such as unease, happiness, peace, or anxiety), mark them on your map. You might also notice some “problem areas” – perhaps some patches of the road or sidewalk are horribly paved and need to be repaired, or there’s a lot of loud dogs constantly barking at the end of your block. Mark these areas on your map as well, and report back to your home when you are ready.
Picking Your Purpose
Now that we’ve identified a few “problems” and made observations within your neighborhood, we can decide what we want to do. Do you want to protect against thieves? Ward against illness for one of your elderly neighbors? This is the time to select the primary purpose for your ward.
Picking The Area
Take the map that you marked up during your walk. Connect any common points you see (for example, connect up the "peaceful" areas you marked on your map, or connect any points that have a common theme). What kind of shape does it have? Does it remind you of any popular symbols? Can you use the general shape of the area to generate a sigil or symbol that represents the area? What area(s) would most benefit from your rock wards?
Here is an example of how I created a sigil from a fictional city map I found! Obviously, play around with this idea until it makes sense to you. You can connect up different routes, or perhaps create a border around the areas that feel safest to you.
Now is the time you also want to pick where you want to place your wards - you can use your neighborhood sigil to influence where you place them, or, place them based on intuition or based on need. For example, placing a rock ward at the end of the noisiest block, or in the middle of the block that has the most number of children in the area.
Creating and Using Your Sigils/Symbols
Now, you want to develop symbols or sigils for your purpose. You can use any method you’d like! You may wish to incorporate your neighborhood sigil into each one you create, but ultimately the design is up to you. This is also the point where you would “charge” your sigil, with whatever method you see fit - as long as the design, intention, and charging method makes sense to you, that’s all that matters!
Painting Your Rocks
Finally, onto the fun part!
Now, you could simply paint your sigils on your rock and call it a day. Or, you could paint your sigil, and layer a more “mundane” piece of artwork on top of the sigil, leaving the sigil hidden underneath. This technique works best if the “mundane” artwork connects with the ward’s purpose in some way (for example, if your ward is for protection against nosy neighbors, you could paint eyes; or if your ward is for health, you could paint green colors, or even a red cross). I definitely recommend this “layering” method of painting your rocks so no one in your neighborhood ends up reporting any “suspicious looking rocks” with “satanic symbols” on them to your local Facebook groups!
Materials
acrylic paint
rocks
paint brushes
toothpicks (optional)
paint markers
outdoor/water-proof sealant such as Mod Podge: Outdoor
Instructions
Lay out your rocks and other materials
Seal your rocks with a coat or two of your sealant before you begin painting. This is an important step, since rocks are porous and will suck up any paint you try to apply!
Paint your rocks to your heart's content! If you are layering paint on your rocks, please make sure each layer is dry before painting the next.
Once your rocks are completely dry, seal them up with your outdoor/water-proof sealant so they don't get damaged in the elements.
Lastly, take another trip through your neighborhood to place your rocks. Converse with the neighbors if you feel inclined, and make double-sure of the locations you chose for your wards. I recommend taking regular walks throughout your neighborhood to check on these wards, and make sure they’re doing their job. You may wish to refresh the wards with a new coat of paint, or replace them with something new if the situations within the neighborhood change.
Ultimately, magic is what you make it, especially when you live in a big city. Warding your neighborhood and showing care for the people that live there is one of the many ways you can connect to your neighborhood on a deeper level and feel more connected to your practice locally.
