Apologies, 25 drops of oil/oils in 2 gallons of water. For my entire house. I have cleansing sprays that are for both spiritual and physical healing and protection in one bottle. My daughter loves to help she has perfected a cleansing disinfectant for courage and strength for her room. And I only allow her 3 to 4 drops to 20oz bottle.
I am starting again to make herbal supplies. I took a long break from deity work and am again getting back into it and have concocted a few deity inspired supplies. A Morrigan Protection powder and perfume. I have also been experimenting with some loose incense blends but have yet to perfect them. I intend to keep trying.
Any herbal interests these days? Does anyone else make some of their own supplies? What are some of your favorite things to make?
I enjoy crafting all sorts of herbal blends that benefit my life and practice. Recently I put together a blend of someherbs in honor of my grandmother's birthday, life, and passing. Mint because she would have me go collect it from the yard to brew some sun tea, Wild carrot becausewe would dye the tops with food color and eat the roots. Purple Iris for she grew many of them and it was this flower that was used for he son's funeral. Bayberry because she would always burn bayberry candles at Christmasand new years. Clove because it was the main spice in her pickled red beets. This blend is made from both wild craftedand purchased herbs. When creating an herbal blend it does not need to be a huge amount. Sometimes the smallest amounts crushed together in a mortar and pestle then placedin a mojo bag that is worn or carried is the most powerful.
Many Blessings
Katie

Hi,
yes, lately I have been very drawn to hoodoo and jar spells which use among other things, oils, herbs and roots. I have obtained a few books on recipes on making your own oils and powders and so on, and plan to do this very soon. I've also made my own potions in the past using household items so looking forward to taking things further with making my own potions using herbs and so forth
Hi!
I've been very interested in tea making lately. I've been trying out different recipes and I'm really loving this red clover tea that I made with my very own foraged red clover. I live in a small apartment so it's hard to grow my own herbs but luckily my mom has been gifting me some of her own homegrown herbs whenever I visit - so I have way too much mint now, hahaha.
I need to try making some cosmetics as well! I've made some hand soaps before but that's about it, I could really use a nice, luxurious hair oil. Do you have any recipe recommendations?
