Description:
Published: 11 Jul 2023 The path of a modern witch is filled with learning and discovery, and that knowledge is recorded in a Grimoire - a Witch's personal journal of their craft. A living document, the grimoire is the home for all the little scraps of information that make up the magic of witchcraft, and each is unique to the witch creating it. Essentially, a grimoire is a magical encyclopaedia, and a living document that is an extension of the witch creating it. In The Handmade Grimoire, readers are introduced to the joy of creating a personal grimoire from scratch, and encouraged to seek out new ways to engage with their craft through creative self-expression. A repository for the little bits of information that the reader collects along the way, The Handmade Grimoire celebrates a magpie mind, always drawn to performing acts of creative self-expression and beauty. Filled with suggested layouts, tips and tricks for where to find materials and guidance and ideas on what to include, The Handmade Grimoire gives the reader permission to experiment and have fun with crafting their own grimoire, and to really engage with it as a mindful activity, that carves out space for their practice in a busy, distracting world. Also included are beautiful papers and images to be cut up and used in the reader's own grimoire, starting them out on the crafting path.
