The path of a modern witch is filled with learning and discovery, gathering knowledge that is recorded in the Grimoire—a Witch's personal journal of their craft. A grimoire is a magickal encyclopedia, a living document and extension of the witch creating it—a unique expression of their magickal journey. In The Handmade Grimoire, author Laura Derbyshire introduces readers to the joy of creating a personal grimoire from scratch, and encourages them to seek out new ways to engage with their craft through creative self-expression. Combining witchcraft and crafting, The Handmade Grimoire celebrates a magpie mind, shows readers how to approach their magickal practice with endless curiosity, and how to find the little moments of beauty all around them. Practical step-by-step illustrated instructions on how to make more elaborate features to incorporate into your grimoire are supplemented with beautiful color photography of Laura's own grimoire. Also included in the book are illustrated papers and images to be cut out and used in the reader's own grimoire. With a variety of patterns and motifs to choose from, the 80 pages of beautifully patterned papers make it easy to start crafting a personal handmade grimoire straight away. Paperback; 160 pages.
