[@v_bunny]

you’ve been my favourite witch youtuber for several years now, thank you for being such an inspiration and helping me learn some of my practices ❤

[@ClaudiaDCD]

Love the dyi nature of this work. But also love how organized it's presented. Really helps the info stick in my brain! Can't wait to use my evergreens in fun ways after their done being decorations for the holidays

[@davidhensley76]

A broom can be made of cedar boughs, too.

[@stevierysie]

Rosemary is my favorite. I love how you are tying up your bundles.

[@littleleafy]

Just a note for anyone watching. Make sure you can identify your evergreens properly. Yew is an evergreen and is poisonous

[@Marta_is_here]

Yeah, don’t eat Yew. 🤢 Also she has juniper, not cedar 😉

[@anidnmeno]

​@@Marta_is_herearen't they the same thing?

[@Marta_is_here]

@@anidnmeno Juniper makes berries, cedar does not. True cedar has needles, juniper has scales. there are many types of juniper and cedar trees. Here in Texas they call the junipers in hill country “mountain cedar” but it’s not cedar at all, it was misidentified 100 years ago and the name stuck even though everyone knows they are juniper trees.

[@Kira_Martel]

​@@Marta_is_hereShe's actually using Western Redcedar, _Thuja plicata._ It is not a true cedar (of the _Cedrus_ genus), but here in the Pacific Northwest we often simply call it Cedar.

[@Marta_is_here]

@@Kira_Martel Yeah, and here in Texas it’s called Cedar too….but it’s not

[@graceannec2239]

Received my copy a couple of weeks ago Annie, absolutely love your hard copy edition. Found this video so calming , therapeutic and healing. ❤❤ You are truly a gifted artist ( filmography) and healer❤❤❤😊

[@MatildaTheBookDragon]

In Sweden its tradition to put a big bundle of firtree outside the door in wintertime ( if you live in a house) to keep bad spirits outside. It looks nice too of course and practical to brush of the snow on ❤❤ the spitit thing is probably forgotten...

[@dianacohen3498]

Thanks for all the magical wonder you share.

[@shimmeringinrosegold7469]

😊 Lovely video. I made pine needles syrup once for cough relief. It worked as a charm. Support to you, from herbalist to herbalist. 😊 🌿

[@johnadamski4012]

🌲🍀🐾🦉🦌💚I'm SO CUCKOO for the scent of FIR TREES, especially for PINE. Have been since childhood. I think you show EVERGREENS the respect they deserve. GRATITUDE? Just keep practicing your GREEN MAGICK🧝‍♀️💚🦌🦉🐾🍀🌲.

[@kathleenroberts7972]

I am getting your book for xmas and I can't wait!

[@Steve197201]

I love your living space, Annabel! I'll bet there's a lot of positive energy in your home.

[@erniewbrooks12]

Watching you tie that bundle of cedar was so relaxing…and your hair so pretty in the light

[@witchNwand]

Great video as ever Annabel, always a joy to watch, blessed be ❤ ☮️ 🙏

[@mattthompson6281]

Have you ever thought about making your own oils from these trees, flowers etc? And if you have, maybe you should do a video. I love your videos

[@denisegariepy1176]

Buying your amazing book this Friday ! Thank you 🙏 so much for this amazing book.

[@julieking5151]

Thank you Annabel ❤️ I just purchased your book! For me for Christmas, tempted to pop it open before then, but excited to have it ❤️. I didn’t hear the construction noise at all. Thank you for these evergreen tips 🤩❤️❤️

[@alyseandrews1066]

I was excited to see the hemlock! I'm on the east coast so we have our own species, but I've just begun working with the Eastern Hemlock! ❤

[@lizhadley3803]

Love these ideas! Alternatively, you could infuse the plant material in white vinegar or vodka, both of which of a longer shelf life than a water infusion.

[@carolcribby8642]

With the construction that you have going on in this video, I didn't hear any of it at all so, I don't know about anybody?. Anyway great video thanks for that, evergreens are my favorite especially when it comes to candles or oils I'll put a little drop of evergreen oil just one on my lamp like on top of the light bulb just one little drop and then of course you know you turn your light bulb on and then when it gets hot you can smell it throughout the room. I've been doing this for many many years long before I had my daughter and she's going to be 33 this year. So FYI if anybody would like to try it just one little drop on the bulb any sense that you like to do either, put one drop on the bulb, turn on your light and let it do its thing and then if you want to do it again with that same bulb I always take a damp cloth and wipe the top of it you know cuz sometimes oil has that little bit of build up and we want to be fire safety. Safety first. 😘🐾... 🌛🌚🌜🐾

I finally got your book and it is GORGEOUS. I am so excited because it has so much great info and is also just beautiful. Thank you for gifting the world your magickal book❤

[@tammydouglas1012]

Thank you. ❤

[@cassietherainbowsend722]

Got my book a couple of weeks ago!! 🎉🎉 I’m loving it. Great information and done so beautifully with the artwork. Thank you, Annabelle for giving us such good information in written form as well as all of your calming videos.

[@teresastorms3774]

Absolutely beautiful video! I can't wait to go out and find myself some fresh evergreens to try these out! I would love to see a video about using pine cones sometime, too. ❤ I am going to order your book ASAP, it looks just fabulous!😊

[@Destiny07180]

Yes to the pinecones

[@hannahshark8080]

Thirded on the pinecones! I just collected a basket full of them in all stages of closed to fully open. Need some magical craft and decorating inspo for them 🥰

[@MoonWitch77]

I love all your videos and I love, love, love your book !!!!

[@hannahshark8080]

Oooh nice sponsor! Blueland are fantastic, have been on my wishlist for a while. Thanks for the code 💚

[@AbigailLovell-bc6zr]

are you planning on making a book on medicinal uses as well? also, I am very happy for you. Congratulations on your book

[@mjgobet5601]

I noticed you have not mentioned Redwood. What would be the properties of Redwoods? I am making some bundles to "gift" at my Yule celebration. There is a Redwood across the street from me that I have watched grow for 30+ years. It has provided evening shade during the summer all over my yard and house. I really want to hold that spirit in a redwood bundle but not if there could be harm to anyone that I gift it to.

[@SamuraiKohana9]

I really like the idea of hanging evergreen above my bed, but last year I had this homemade rug with something living in it and I was bitten really badly! I am thus a bit paranoid, so how do you clean the evergreen first without stripping it of its natural energies? Im thinking I could wash it in water and then wave it through smoke? Also we could barely hear the construction works, don’t worry! 😉

[@willowblack1234]

I love watching your videos, they are so calming. :) Your rings are cool, where did you get them?

[@Marta_is_here]

I love your juniper bundle! I have lots of juniper here in Texas and have been collecting berries this season. I just bought some of the soft kind like you have, in a large bouquet with some pine at Trader Joe’s! It’s their “evergreen bouquet” I’m so excited!! I’m originally from the northwest and miss the pine. Can’t wait to get to work. (Why do so many call Juniper Cedar? ) Lovely video as always 💫

[@Kira_Martel]

I left a reply on your other comment, but for the reference of anyone else reading this, Annie is not using Juniper here, but Western Redcedar, _Thuja plicata._ It is also known simply as Cedar here in the Pacific Northwest. While it is not of the _Cedrus_ genus, neither is it of the _Juniperus_ genus as Juniper is. They are both in the Cypress family, which is why they look similar.

[@Aaravos333]

Beautiful!! Are you doing the #12DaysOfYule?

[@Evan-xc5zu]

Hi, Annabel. Nice to see a video that is Fresh .. New, Peace : )

[@magic_ninja4952]

Hi! I have a bunch of pine needles that I want to wrap into a smudge bundle, but I'm scared that once it dries out it could be a fire hazard as I've heard they can be quite flammable. Should I worry about this and take safety precautions ahead of time? Thanks!

[@lisasloane6456]

I’m in Northern California under the redwoods. Can I use them for these evergreen practices?

[@Tricia-l-west]

Is there a special kind of cord to use for wrapping?

[@elysethefloralninja]

My problem is that I tie them too tight and can't undo them. 😂

Finally got your book ordered for myself. Should be here tomorrow 😁

[@laurenambrose4012]

Newer to your channel. Love your vibe, your peaceful nature. What are those shears you used to cut the greenery? Thank you.

[@TheGreenWitch]

I found mine at a second hand shop but i believe that they are typically used for trimming bonsai so looking for bonsai sheers would probably get you them or something very similar

[@laurenambrose4012]

@@TheGreenWitch thank you for the reply

[@--M--1111]

Working on some curses this year. But this is very nice.

[@Ally-nt7xp]

What camera & editing software do you use to record?💚

[@anngrey3959]

My son and I are severe allergic to evergreens, pine, spruce. Anything else I could use.

[@hannahshark8080]

Rosemary has a similar look and feel and magical properties.

[@anngrey3959]

Thank you..I know I can do Rosemary. 😁

[@kellyshuffler1599]

I just found your channel yesterday. It is fantastic as are you! Thank you for your hard work.🩵
