You will need the following items for this spell:
Red candle to represent energy and passion
Blue candle for wisdom
Smoky incense to represent the Gods forge
The tools you use in your craft
Place the red candle on the right of your sacred space, the blue on the left and your tools in between. Put the incense in the middle above your tools. Light your incense and build up a smoky atmosphere. Light the candles, red first then blue. Pick up the tool you use most, hold it up and say:
"Hephaestus, God of the forge,
Who despite your disability,
Fashioned articles of beauty
Fit for the Gods
Come to my aid
Help me to create things of beauty
Fit for human use.
Help my inability to create those articles
I see with the inner eye
And cannot make manifest . Help me now I pray"
Now pass your preferred tool through the smoke of the incense.Hold it for a few moments, until you can feel its energy and sense it becoming alive in your hands, then say "Hephaestus I give you my thanks". When you are next working, make a small offering to the god in thanks perhaps a coin,a small painting or article you have made.
It depends on what you're expecting. Yes, you can dedicate tools to specific deities and do things in their honour. In exchange, you may be blessed by them and notice an improvement in your craft. This sounds like a dedication if you work with Hephaestus, but if you don't I wouldn't use it [I would also alter it slightly because it sounds a little offputting to me] You could also change it to be for any number of deities associated with craftsmanship and/or a specific skill. Short answer, it should work, but don't expect to say this and suddenly be a master blacksmith on your first try.
No spell is instant [except for maybe cleansing, banishing and protection] When you work with a deity and call on them for aid with a task, you might feel a presence, or see signs they've heard your request, then you would see improvement in this area quicker than without the divine intervention. It can also be a form of worship. Say you work with Hephaestus, you say a blessing or pray in his honour before working on any project. In this way, you are giving your labour in honour of him. Thus, he will see your effort and bless you [in theory, I don't recommend trying to trick a God for blessings, they can see through that] If you choose note to work with a deity [totally valid] and you choose to say a chant or cast a spell to improve your craft skills, it'll work in a similar way. You've charged the energy with the desired outcome in mind, and with regular practice, you'll see improvement quicker. Same with any spell. You cast a money spell, instead of money falling from the sky, you might find 5$ on the street, be offered extra shifts at work, be approved for a credit card, get a raise, be offered a better job. It won't be instant, but you'd notice over the course of a month [more or less] all of these money opportunities appearing. You have to work for it, but the universe has made it easier to achieve.
