Witch's Chests and Reclaiming the Witch

For the past few months I've been venturing into making new creations that are based on a traditional witchcraft and hoodoo voodoo background. The witch's chests were based on an idea I had a couple of years ago where I actually made a Maiden, Mother, crone one for my friend's daughters 16th as a way of welcoming her into the craft. These new ideas came from that. I love wooden and vintage boxes and my house is full of them. I created a new page on facebook called Reclaiming the Witch as on this page I wanted to make more traditional witchcraft items based on old spells, sigils and the old ways of magic. Visit www.facebook.com/reclaimingthewitch Here are some of the chests that I have made. More are on the way )0(
