Introductory Post

 Merry meet! 
Its been an exciting season in the MM workshop. Kiz and I (Aradia) have been swamped with custom orders for Books of Shadows which was a welcome blessing. We are so honored to have been chosen by our amazing clients, out of the sea of other BOS makers
Our Etsy store feels like its really taking off, and now that we're able to take a breath we are working on putting new listings up, and trying out some new product ideas to see how they are received (updates and pics will be posted). Its nice to have an outlet for our creative fecundity lol  I just wish there was more time in the day! 
Here are some pics of the books of shadows we made during the Yule-Brigid season: 

11x14 Tome - Triskel and Rose coven symbol, with Rose Quartz and Moonstone inlay, and antiqued brass corner protectors. 500 sheets (1000 front n back) aged recycled velum

 9x12 BOS - Tree of life with antique/distressed wrinkled look, raised corners and spine embellishments (three diamonds) in post screw binding with 300 sheets (600 front n back) of aged parchment.

 9x12 BOS - Hocus Pocus inspired. With distressed leather, sculpted 'hands' holding the spine, red stitching and realistic 'human' eye. 700 sheets (1400 front n back) of copper parchment (also shown with filigree corner embellishments and garnets)
