I love how your stuff is done cheaply/inexpensively & looks like anyone could make it. I get depressed clicking on tutorials and people have all sorts of special tools and spend a ton of time making things I would have to practice years to look halfway decent and it's too much work to begin with. Your crafts look so organic and unique; I love them. Thank you for sharing with us!

[@robinlocher1509]

I agree and was going to comment something similar! I love how Alwyn uses simple materials that you may already have around the house or can easily find on a nature walk. I love the idea of repurposing boxes and things like she has! ❤

[@traumfaengerinify]

Oh I love the dark wood texture. I don't have the money to buy real wooden furniture, it's usually the white ikea stuff. I'll definitely try this out with my office desk! thank you so much

[@AlwynOak]

Teresa Margit aww you are welcome!! It actually stays on very well with a good gloss or varnish over the top 😊❤️

[@kittybeckett5791]

if you're interested you can find some great old wooden furniture second hand in and charity shops etc as well as things like Facebook marketplace x i've seen whole wardrobes go for about £25! old furniture has so much character and individuality :)

[@traumfaengerinify]

@@kittybeckett5791 thanks. i'm a bit short on money and actually planning on moving to a bigger place in a year or so, so until then I want to make a bit of small, cheap changes until the big move :) but thanks for the advice! i live in the capital of my country and we have the greatest flea markets, antique stores etc. they can be pricy but i think it's worth it!

[@kittybeckett5791]

@@traumfaengerinify oh I totally understand don't worry! I just think old furniture is the greatest haha, It can definitely get pricey depending where you go but there is a lot of furniture that is priced lower if it is stained etc so it's worth having a hunt through. they last a lot longer than newer furniture too so it's definitely worth it if you can :)

[@KstewLover1]

Just a tip very lightly sand with at minimum 320 grit or higher, and use preferably a little bit more expensive paint than like dollar store quality. And of course finish it with lacquer and a good brush helps doesn’t need to be expensive just the right type for the right paint. :)

[@Dust.bxnnyy]

This is so satisfying like wow I love witchy stuff ❤😘

[@AlwynOak]

Awe that's so lovely thanks sweet! X

[@demonwantstodie]

Omg me too

[@wisdom.witchasmr9006]

Your ideas are great ! I personnaly never thought about making the crystal shelf myself and I'm thinking about it now! Share more of them 🥰 Your voice is lovely btw !

[@AlwynOak]

Thankyou that's such a lovely compliment!! I know i always saw the crystal pyramids and they were so expensive!!! Glad we can support each other 😘❤️ xoxoxo

[@janebrookes446]

I agree , I loved this idea and I will trying this soon . Also your voice is just so soothing and today I had a stressful moment and I heard your voice believe it or not , in my head telling me to stay calm and relax . I hope my shelf turns out as beautiful as yours . You make things that I’d never imagine to make myself , thank you so much xx

[@witchothewood455]

I love all of this, and have used your tissue paper method to decorate MANY boxes! I also made a crystal pyramid like yours, only a little bigger. What a great idea, and thank you for all of your videos!

[@victoriahades8310]

I want to get a shelf shaped like a coffin but I'll have drawers and stuff like that for to be my witchy space cuz I'm worth the the darker side of practice

[@AlwynOak]

I don't think it would be difficult to change the shape just need nice thick card for it to hold its place 😊 ✨🌳

[@AdventureswithAmirah]

I really love your Moon phase box and the way you drew everything out and arranged it on the wall. Beautiful❣️

[@AlwynOak]

Thankyou that is so kind! I find it helps so much drawing it out first... or if you have the sims that helps a lot too!!

[@mariaa4436]

Something about your voice is gorgeous, i felt so at peace watching this, blessed be

[@moonlightkiss369]

So beautiful I only hope to have something like this in my future

[@faerefolke]

I would love to have an old bureau like that.

[@rebeccaharrill7824]

You must be a artist, your crafts inspire me. I'm going to make fall faries

[@sajejekyllhyde4647]

You can make the alchemy shelf the same way using three pieces of wood planks. I made mine that way. I also used another plank from a mini crate and drilled circles into them and then used cardboard to make the shapes of the moon phases. Much more sturdier and I love how wood looks. Definitely a must try DIY.

[@AlwynOak]

Yes I agree a really great way!! Especially if holding larger crystals. These cardboard ones are good for me as I really don't trust myself with a drill 😂🙈🍂🍁🎃

[@karlau1084]

So inspiring! Thank you, Blessed be.

[@agentofchaos4437]

girl you have mad skills, that's insane, I have to learn how to craft. I already own a glue gun so far only used it for a custom made halloween costume. it's stunning if my alter and space around it looks anything remotely like that i''ll be very happy.

[@cerachaos]

I love that shelf for an alter space, I'm going to manifest finding one of those

Love this I’m very crafty but sometimes I lack the imagination to begin with and this helps so much I’ve been stuck in a little rut I can’t wait you inspired me to come up with my little version thank you
