Ostara, or the March equinox, is on March 20th of this year. That’s only about a month away! I’m starting to decorate for Ostara now. It might be a little early, but seeing signs of spring in my home remind me that we’re in the home stretch!

My Vintage Valentine’s Day Mantle

All, Crafting, Etsy, Holidays, Witchy Things

I like to refresh my mantle every few months to keep it interesting. I just can’t stand to look at the same things all the time. I rotate my art as well as the tchotchkes. I started taking down my Kewpie mantle from Christmas in early January, and this Valentine’s Day decor evolved from it.

An eclectic theme of vintage toys, minerals, and plants emerged while I was arranging it. These are all things that I collect so this came together pretty naturally on its own.

Here’s how I pulled it together:

Simple Witchcraft: Gemini Moon Water

All, Witchy Things

Moon water is water that has been charged by the full moon. The moon water can be given different properties based on the astrological sign associated with the current moon. (This is a great resource that tells you which properties each astrological sign most signifies.)

This month, the full moon is in Gemini as of 12:39 AM Eastern on Friday November 23rd, so you’ll want to leave this out overnight on Thursday the 22nd.

Independent Designer Spotlight: Marcy Kentz Jewelry

All, Fatshion & Fatspo, Independent Designer Spotlight, Witchy Things

I have been enamored with Marcy Kentz’s jewelry since I came across it on her Instagram last year. Her jewelry designs juxtapose sacred geometry and nature in a modern, witchy way. Her pieces are talismans full of esoteric symbolism, perfect for any witch’s wardrobe.

I received her moon phase & skull moth necklace as a gift for Christmas last year, and her all seeing eye amulet necklace last month for my birthday.

Marcy writes a note inside every jewelry package, making it that much more special.
