Too Cute To Cull (a mini deck collection)

[@oracles_by_odalys]

I have an obsession with mini decks. They’re so easy to carry, shuffle and idk, they just make me so happy! Recently got the tiny traveler the sasurabito deck and def worth

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I should probably look into that one, I bet it's adorable! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@heatherhoepsintuitiveart]

Thank you so much for including my Inner Compass Oracle deck (which is 100% hand collaged)🙏💝

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Oh you are so welcome, it's one of my favorites! Good to know about the collage, it is just beautiful. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

Thoroughly enjoyed your video! Really enjoyed seeing all of the decks. I see a number of the people in the comments misusing the word "mini." Mini tarot decks are EXTREMELY TINY, a couple of inches. Baba has made several, including the Victorian Romantic and the Bohemian Cats Tarot. US games makes for example a Rider Waite mini; the dimensions are 1.75" x 2.875". The decks that are in tins that you reviewed are pocket-sized, not mini. It doesn't matter much except if you truly go looking for a mini or if you specify a mini, you should expect a much much smaller deck.

I Love mini decks! I have the Morgan Greer and the Maria Celia. I'd get all of the tin decks if I had more time and money. The Morgan Greer reminds me of my childhood too. 💜

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

They are just so much fun to work with. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@MysticRob82]

Thank you soooo much for the review…. I have the regular deck and just recently reviewed it on my channel and enjoyed it very much…. I really like this deck. I will keep watching your channel and thank you again for the video….😊

[@ladysmall9853]

I only have 1 mini deck. The Witches Tarot by Ellen Dugan. I preordered it as soon as I heard about it because I really enjoy Ellen's various works and wanted to support her. The full-size deck was my second deck and the first that really worked for me. I never get tired of hearing you gush about your favorite decks.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Aw I'm so glad, sometimes I feel like a broken record. Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@peaseblossom4252]

Fun video! I’m starting to love pocket decks more and more. I picked up the pocket Wild Unknown for a Christmas stocking stuffer for myself on an impulse, since I don’t have the full size and liked that the guidebook fit in the tin (I’m a heavy guidebook user). Decided to use it as my daily card pull and it’s blown me away. I’m getting such great insights each day, absolutely love it. I love the White Sage deck too, and my mini Roots & Wings oracle, and mini Way of the Panda.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

There is just something about those smaller decks, they are just so much fun to work with. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@CrystalsBeyondThe7Veils]

The Barbara Walker Tarot was my first Tarot deck I bought in 1989. It was the original printing. Love, love love this deck and it is still one of my favourites. I was so happy when it was reprinted and came in the perfect little tin. I really enjoy your channel. Thank you for sharing your inspiring energy and I know I will approach, enjoy and fully experience my decks, the old, the new and those yet to be explored.

[@InnerMagpie]

Love love your look at decks!

[@CommonHawthorn]

I love the Maria Celia, too, but my favorite mini marseille is the Squid Cake Marseille by Jess Rollar. There's also the Marshmallow Marseille by Wandering Oracle, and I think their Sirene deck is also a Marseille. I love your creative counting. Seven appeared twice.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I've eyed that Marshmallow deck many times, I might have to pick that one up sometime! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@natalieartist1113]

I just got the linen edition of the gentle tarot. It's great. I’m starting only to buy smaller sized cards. It is more challenging finding small oracle cards. Two favorites are the language of flowers (mini) and forest fae messages. Published by Rockpool.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Yeah not near as many small oracle decks, but I bet we start seeing more of them in the future. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@angelaschredl9245]

And you made me really curious about the inner compass oracle... Because of all the creative creativity 😄

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

It's a good one, I highly recommend checking it out. 🙂

[@angelaschredl9245]

@@DawnMichelleTarot yes, I'll check it out. Already found out that it is from my home country, which is great.

[@mysticrosetarot888]

All I can say is YES !!! BARBARA WALKER TAROT. It's been a VERY excellent deck to work with and it has been one that has filled in the shoes of the Thoth Tarot which I passed down a few years back. I've been speaking about this deck in recent weeks and happy to see you embracing it in your practice. Thank you for sharing your feedback.🕯✨ Hands down, a majority of my working decks cut to chase when interpreting readings. BW Tarot is no exception. 👍👍

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

It is an awesome deck, I am really enjoying working with it. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@lexwithbub]

My favourite mini deck is the tarot nova from tarot the complete kit by Dennis Fairchild. The cutest card back I've ever seen. Cutest little illustrations. And Hansen Roberts for more traditional RWS style.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I've looked at that one a few times, it's adorable. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@Magalie_la_millenial]

I do not have a pocket deck yet, but I’m planning on getting the mini Lili White and The Star Seeker pocket edition when I will have saved up enough to get them!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Ooh those will be fun mini decks! I will have the check them out too. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@angelaschredl9245]

I loved your video. Curious for more. I don't have any of these decks, but I am very interested in the Morgan Greer Deck. It also reminds me on some of my children's book. The only mini deck I own so far is the everyday tarot. I love to use it on busy days when there's only little spare time. It is not distracting and gives me quick and clear messages.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I am so glad you enjoyed it. That's a great little mini deck too! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@AntoinetteTarot]

I was wondering what you had done with Bab's deck. Runic deck, beautiful artwork, I am very tempted with this. The pocket gentle tarot is going onto my list now, it has a very different energy to it. Of course the Maria de celia was a #dawnmademedoit, another firm favourite in my collection too. Thank you for sharing your collection 🌞💛

[@ForestMoonMaiden]

The only pocket tarot deck I have is the Radiant Rider Waite in a tin, I also have some of those mini affirmation decks by Rockpool. I have preordered the linen edition of Gentle Tarot (not sure if that is a pocket deck but it looks smaller than the original). Great choices here, gives me something to think about as I have small hands so I'm sure these would be easier to handle and shuffle!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I love the smaller decks, they are so much easier for me to work with. I hope you enjoy your Gentle Tarot, it's one of my favorites! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@chelle1256]

Mini decks are super cute! I was surprised the Tarot of Trees wasn't in your video :-)

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

That would have been a good one to include! I don't often think of that one because the kids tends to use it more than anyone else. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@whalesong813]

I love mini decks as well, my favorite mini's are Tarot of Trees and the Wild Unknown. What a fun video, thank you for sharing. I have James R Ead's (spelling??) on order, I can't wait to get those in my hands.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I'm just a sucker for those smaller decks! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@annelyle5474]

I don't actually have any of those at the moment (shocker!). I currently have the Everyday Witch (which is a bit too small imho), the equally tiny mini Sambucus (a Kickstarter add-on) and the mini Bohemian Gothic. I too am waiting on my mini Gentle Tarot in a tin, and I put the Wild Unknown mini straight onto my wish list after seeing it here - so cute! 😍 As for oracles, I have the Flora Healing mini, plus Night Visions, Earthbound and Spiritual AF, which only come in a small size. I would definitely recommend the mini versions of Rebecca Lefebvre's decks - I know you have and like the standard ones. I'm also waiting on a mini rune deck, Runic Odyssey (another KS), which is beautiful but coincidentally also a teal colour like the Witch's Familiar deck!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Ooh great decks, I'll have to check some of those out! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@ikalesunflower]

I really enjoyed seeing the tarot and Oracle decks showcased, especially the rune deck. However the decks you showed are pocket sized. Mini size decks are alot smaller . I also like the Vanessa tarot in a tin and the universal waite in a Tin. I have preordered US games latest tarot in a tin deck called The stoller Tarot by Adam Stoller.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Yeah, technically they are considered a "pocket" deck I suppose as there are smaller decks available out there. For me, anything that is smaller than standard size I just call a mini lol. I haven't seen the Stroller deck, I'll have to check that out! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@giraffanny739]

Hi, nice you talked about Barbara Walker, I think it's one of the less popular decks. Actually it was my first self-purchased tarot! For me the vibe is kinda ghastly. Like sometimes I have creeps on hands haha. Definetly not gentle one but I really love it! Though I must say the older version, not in a tin is much better - colors are more vibrant and the quality of pictures is higher and when i got the tin one and compared to my mothers old version , I ws dissapointed a bit.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

That's good to know, I've been looking at some older copies of the full size verison. Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@ninokraine]

I bought the linen edition of 5th one....and LOVE it. I'm not sure I'd call it a mini. It's a playing card size. The BEST cardstock!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Yeah, I think there are some technical terms there in relation to size that I totally ignored. Anything around tin size gets called a mini deck in my collection lol. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@cherylclough4309]

I am waiting for the full size Gentle Tarot to appear in my mailbox! So excited to get it. I love mini decks and am also a sucker for them. I preordered.the little tin of the Wild Unknown as soon as I saw it. I haven’t used it yet, but I’m thinking of putting it in my February rotation. (Gosh, that sounds like I know what I’m talking about-I wish!🥴 Such a beginner.)

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Can't wait to hear what you think of the Gentle Tarot! I can't get enough of the mini decks as well, they are so fun! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@suburbohemian]

Have you tried the Sun and Moon Tarot yet? I have their tin deck and adore it! I know it comes in a larger size too, but I find I'm just in love with the smaller one.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I had the full size a few years ago but it got rehomed. I might check out tin version, there is just something about those that I can't resist. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@suburbohemian]

It's funny...I was a kid in the 70's and I've tried both Morgan-Greer and Aquarian and tho they are both 70's decks, I get That 70's Vibe more from a number of 90's decks (Tarot of the Moon Garden, Sacred Rose Tarot, Tarot of the Cat People), a lot of 70's stuff came rolling back around in the 90's (so then I understood how my mom felt when Happy Days came out and brought back stuff from her own childhood, lol).

[@lostintime2767]

I want to get the white sage tarot so badly. The artwork feels very soothing. The only problem is the pip minors. I feel like I'd need to get into numerology in order to get more out of it. Would you have any book suggestions on numerology, or in tarot in general?

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Actually some of the good books on reading pips are the Marseille books. The Open Reading was a good one. The little booklet in the white sage is pretty helpful too. I hope that helps! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@lostintime2767]

@@DawnMichelleTarot Thank you so much! I'll check that book out ❤

[@PrinceXSuperstar]

I feel like you are reading my mind. I have been looking for a mini deck in the pass couple of days, so this video has a perfect timing! Also, I am surprised you donthave the Zilich Tarot. When I saw it I thought of you.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

You know I had the Zillich a few years ago but it was Thoth based so I rehomed it. Now I'd probably work it! I might have to bring that one back into my collection at some point. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@Untitled_Coffee_Art]

I've been eyeing the Wild Unknown for...like forever. Still on the fence. But, seeing it in the mini feels weirdly less overwhelming? thanks for the great video!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

Actually, I think that's a good way to put it. It's really cute and approachable. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@KatieSeasCards]

Thank you for sharing! These all look like fantastic little decks. I was drawn to the rune oracle... might have to pick that one up, since I'm beginning to work with runes. Your videos always give me interesting ideas, and I love your soothing voice. Thanks so much!

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I am so glad you enjoyed it and found some decks that resonate with you. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@UilaEngel]

Do you have any videos on rebacking mini decks? I am considering doing my first mod on a mini deck, but I am not sure how well they would shuffle after. Thank you in advance for your time

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I don't think I've ever rebacked a mini deck. The process would probably be the same, but it might make for a really chunky deck! Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@UilaEngel]

@@DawnMichelleTarot I have been watching a lot of your videos, to prepare myself to mod a deck someday, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! One more question: could you maybe measure how tall the two chinkiest decks you re backed became? Thank you again for having replied

[@andreaborbas9450]

Would you recommend the tin version of the Morgan Greer or the bigger size? I can't decide.

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I use them both in different ways. The tin version is really cute and it's a fantastic size. I find it to be a better shuffle than the standard size, so if I had to pick one, I'd probably go with that as it's more versatile for me. However, if pairings are your thing, the bigger one works great for that. I hope that helps! :)

[@PrinceXSuperstar]

Also, which method (marker, inl pad) did you use to edge the Maria Celia and what color is it?

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I think I used an ink pad on that, but honestly I did that so long ago I don't remember what color I used. Sorry, I know that's not very helpful! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@srisonal]

Does anyone have everyday witch pocket tarot & wild unknown pocket tarot. Could you do a size comparison of it. I need to know the cms/inch of the everyday witch. Thanks

[@DawnMichelleTarot]

I don't have the Everday Witch mini but the amazon listing says 2 x 1.25 x 3 inches. Hope that helps.

[@srisonal]

@@DawnMichelleTarot thanks Don Michelle. Yes I saw it. 😊 🙏🏾

[@andreaborbas9450]

I have both. The Everyday Witch is much smaller.
