13: The “Thrifty” Witch.

Hey guys, merry meet. Today I just wanted todo a small video that I have been meaning todo for awhile now, but havn't had the time to get around to. I want to talk with you guys aboust simple and easy ways to reduce your budget when buying magical tools, supplies, etc. My tips; 1: Candles: * Check out your local dollar stores, they tend to have cheap candles and a wide array of colours. SIDE NOTEL dollar stores tend to have cheap incense if your budget is strickly small check it out fot incense as well. You never know what you'll find. * Check out your local craft supply stores for their sales and DO NOT be afraid of coupons! 2. Books: * Look into your library, try the "religious" section. Alot of libraries around the work are starting to bring in " occult" style books. OR check out your library online to put pbooks on hold. * Try the used books stores now and then. They are cheap and treasures can be found if you just keep your eyes open. 3. Herbs: * Plant and grow your own herbs outside in a small garden OR in pots inside your house. For fresh, on demand herbs of your choice. * Save up your jars from joob (ie; jam jars, pickle jars) to store your dries herbs in, buying canning jars can be expensive. * Save small baggies to store herbs in as well. * Instead of buying a big machine to try your herbs, hang your herbs or place them in a well ventilated paper bag to try. This is relatively cheap and affective!

    i would NOT buy incense from the dollar store, it wouldnt work at all! they wouldn’t be made of the appropriate materials, nor would they even smell like them.

    The people who said that “you’re not putting enough effort into it” are the same people who are ‘into’ this’ just to see what cool knives and cloaks they can get, and probably pay a small fortune for their wand. Ignore them, I think you give great advice.

    yea alot of people enjoy that, but it also deepends on what kind of incense you are using.

    A idea I use for incense burning is fill a cup or bowl up with sand and just use that instead of an incense burner. (for incense sticks). Hope that helps!

    This video is amazing. I searched YouTube for a while and if I found a witch talking about her altar, she always said that you must have this, and that.
    You aren’t a witch because you have all those things. You are a witch because you believe you are a witch.

    My parents are katholic and if they know I’m a witch, I’m dead. So i have only some stones, candles, my pentacle offcourse, but that’s it. Books and scents I left with my girlfriend.

    Hope to see more of your vids

    Blessed Be

    I really loved this video! Thanks for all the money-saving tips :-D I really love using tea-lights as they are so practical and also I love using them in my bathroom when I’m taking ritual baths and whatnot. Plus they look pretty :-)
