DIY Magic Wand, how to Choose, & Create Your Magic Wand, Let's make 6 wands!Pagan Crafting

[@darrenshowers1102]

Thank you for the amazing video, I’m just starting out and am wondering when I go to the forest to look for some wood how to ask the tree for permission and how to leave an offing. ❤

[@pagancrafting]

hi there Darren, you may walk up to the tree of your choice And just simply ask. go by the feeling that you get ,you will receive energy just like you receive energy off people without words. trust your gut. you will know it is very rare the trees will say no. You may leave an offering of sacred tobacco, or herbs in placement of sacred tobacco, you may leave little teeny tiny crystal chips, or an offering of your choice that you seem deemed fit. The offering will be small and something that is biodegradable or given back to nature. I like to leave sacred tobacco or tiny wishing crystals personally. Now you don't need to leave an offering at each place where you forage or search for your wand or collect your item. You just need to leave that one place especially the one place you choose for your wand. If you're foraging you also only need to leave one offering. Now what if you forgot herbs a crystal or something to offer?? The Canadian indigenous people use a strand of their hair an offering of their DNA given back to the creator earth. This is a sacred offering and is one that I also use very frequently specially when I collect my wood for my wands. Let me know if you have any questions blessed be - Cara✨

So fun. I enjoyed it. The autumn was my favorite.♥️One day I'll make my digital pen into a wand to enhance my digital artwork.🥰

[@pagancrafting]

[@yoloyolo3940]

All of your wands are amazing. I love the autumn wand the most. Inspired mode activated 😁❤. Thank you so much ❤

[@pagancrafting]

Glad you like them! what color will you go with ? -Cara

[@juliet03141959]

wonderful wands and nice to see that only one wand is preferable! i’m a maker and felt a bit constrained by the idea of A WAND as opposed to wands multiple! thank you.

[@pagancrafting]

I totally agree!

[@kimcoffman4798]

Thank you so much for this tutorial.....

[@pagancrafting]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lulumoon9]

I love how these all turned out and am excited to incorporate some of your techniques into a wand I already started! Thank you, Aries Sister!

[@pagancrafting]

You are so welcome ARIES sister !

[@adriannademadriguera4859]

this was awesome! loves it all. thank you for all you do for us. 😘

[@pagancrafting]

You are so welcome! I love to share my wands. Did you have a favorite ?

[@JohannaVanWinkle]

So cool! Thanks for sharing!

[@pagancrafting]

Thanks for watching! many blessings to you.

[@daswitchling]

I think I loved the tiger eye one the most it had very interesting energy and definitely stood out to me 😊

[@pagancrafting]

ohhh interesting....I wonder what kind of energy you need right now with the tigers eye....

[@daswitchling]

@@pagancrafting Hm maybe you're right I didn't think about it like that... What is your favourite one?

[@pagancrafting]

​@@daswitchling , my first and favorite one i forgot to show in my collection, and its the main one I use haha. its a piece of driftwood all curled and nearly , it twines around my wrist and arm, with a blue heron foot on it at the end holding a large chunk of aventurine Crystal. its over 25 years old now and i don't bring it anywhere in fear of the wood breaking. its hold a special place on my altar. in the video id say I love the Bee Shaman wand, the fire wand, and the 4 elemental wand.

[@knotqueen2419]

Loved them all! BB

[@pagancrafting]

oh thank you , :)

[@jbtrails8883]

Love this video🌿😊💕

[@pagancrafting]

Glad you liked it!! Many blessings to you ✨

[@crystalheart9]

I thought that was clay on the wands, glue is so much quicker and easier. Beautiful wands!💙🥰💜I liked all of your wands but I thought the Autumn wand had something extra special going on with it.

[@pagancrafting]

Thank you 🤗 what color will you make yours ?

[@crystalheart9]

@@pagancrafting I would probably go with turquoise blue which is my favorite color. Thank you for the awesome tutorial.💙

[@FurandFeathers71]

Ypu are a Wand Hoarder! 😝hahaaaaa My favs are the ivy one ( I thought take bits of ivy off and place them on stick so you can see more of the wood) My other favorite is the element wood one. Beautiful.🥰

[@pagancrafting]

gasp ! i just realized I never showed my very first one! and its the main one i use. sigh...next video. my daughter voted for the ivy, but i m feeling the less ivy look too, I may strip it down and bring out the polymer clay on that one, see more of the wood and copper is the right idea , i agree. many blessing to you and your kitties.

[@BeverleyButterfly]

Wow your wands are so beautiful! I have a sand I bought but I'd love to make my own because I our town is surrounded with a beautiful forest xx

[@pagancrafting]

thank you ! I bet you could find so many beautiful pieces in your forest. i emailed you a couple days ago too :)

[@BeverleyButterfly]

@@pagancrafting I just replied I can be so slow sometimes because of my chronic illnesses but I'm so excited 😊

[@fullcirclehealingteastarot]

Hey Cara! It's sarah (MrsD) I figured I would follow you from my "other channel" I have to say you have inspired me 🙏🏼🧘🏼‍♀️ I'm so glad you made this video. I am trying, after some time to get my head wrapped around decorating my wand. It has to be a special "thing" with me. I cant just slap some paint in it and done lol so I love what you're doing. Also have walking sticks for my grandson, daughter, husband, my Dad and myself. Need to do those also.

[@pagancrafting]

hey there !! I love more natural wands, and I seem to connect with them more energetically, ohhh maybe you could pick out s crystal to represent each person on the walking sticks?

[@fullcirclehealingteastarot]

@@pagancrafting ooh ya great idea! I'm meeting a friend in Greenville tomorrow to go stone and Crystal shopping too. Perfect timing!

[@pagancrafting]

@@fullcirclehealingteastarot ohhh awesome i love field trips

[@fullcirclehealingteastarot]

Yes, getting ready for Mabon! 🍁🐦‍⬛🪄 I need some slippery elm too. Cold season is coming.

[@marcy4227]

Thank you! Someone who was very passionate and thorough, love it! Was it acrylic paint you used? Making mine tomorrow 😊

[@pagancrafting]

@marcy4227 oh thank you. Yes just acrylic craft paint works best. Have fun crafting !

[@fullcirclehealingteastarot]

Your wands are so amazing! You have so many 😳 😆 That would be me...

[@pagancrafting]

and |I only use like one....

[@fullcirclehealingteastarot]

Makes for a great gift 🎁

[@pagancrafting]

@fullcirclehealingteastarot6660 sure does. I made the mini ones for all my friends and kids last year Yule. They were excited and well received.

[@MyMountainHomeandKitchen]

Love love love this video. Am now thinking of getting some basic carving tools. How do you get the bark off of the branches? I am surrounded by woods and bark removal is big roadblock for me

[@pagancrafting]

most of my wood pieces I collect on the water, driftwood, its so clean , charged up with the water, and ready to be crafted with XO .

[@MyMountainHomeandKitchen]

@@pagancrafting Maybe I need to soak mine. Loved all your wands, but especially the ones made with the gathered sticks. Love that natural material.

[@raughboy188]

If any wiccan who follows gardnerian or alexandian tradition saw this video they to my knowledge wouldn't be happy seeing you using hot glue to make a wand because they're very conservative when it comes to choice of the materials for everything. I am considering getting into wicca but it will be eclectic wicca because i have all the freedom and i can practice alone. My choice of wood will most likely be black locust from my own forest so offering won't be problem and i might not even need it because to most of black locust trees i gave home over there by planting them, i can even go with willow trees, i did the same for many of them. I believe trees in my backyard won't mind me taking pieces because i take care of them and don't use pesticides, every year i give something back to the land and land responds in kind.

Sending a LIKE to your chopsticks from China🎉🎉🎉

[@pagancrafting]

Very cool ! Thank you

[@valxntinaflorxs]

Do you sell custom wands? I need a sunflower wand! 🌻

[@pagancrafting]

[@pagancrafting]

craft paint, acrylic :)

[@SOLOXXX-n7d]

Can you teach me magic symbol

[@pagancrafting]

there are so many out there , each with a different meaning, what are you looking for ?

[@SOLOXXX-n7d]

Binding spell and symbol@@pagancrafting

[@TheWizdWiz]

One day I’d like to move to the forest and go on walks with my wand.

[@pagancrafting]

that is a wonderful goal , Many blessings to you and yours.
