This butterfly cabochon was made by Nix Creations (Etsy). I usually buy resin eyes there, but this floral cab was too pretty to resist. I love the way it turned out. Epoxy, watercolor, pyrography, Ph Martin's ink.

Mosshawk is a longtime resident of Pennsylvania's Appalachian Mountains. She studied AP Art in high school and had intended to become an art teacher. Most of her wandmaking techniques are self taught. When she isn't working on art projects she likes to travel with her husband and their fur babies, Dax and Sammy. They recently spent a year and a half exploring Colorado and Oregon by RV, and that experience colors everything we do.
Crafting an authentic wand can be a lengthy process. From selecting the trees who give us the branches to refining the final magical tool, the process of making a wand can take weeks. To follow her passion and create the best project Mosshawk has learned hand carving, Dremel relief, pyrography, and hand-inking techniques. No two wands are the same.

This most recent batch went to The Simple Life in Taneytown, MD. Drop by and pick one up! The prices range from $15 to $22. I also work by commssion and together we can choose a locally grown wood, work out your decorations and inscriptions, and get you a wand you'll love to work with!

Dogwood! Cut and twisted while still fresh, then anchored with twine for a full year. (Not by design - I just forgot about it for that long.) Dogwood is ruled by Jupiter and it represents grit, confidence, survivorship, and good fortune. This will be a great wand!

My grandmother was a quilter.

pretty sure this quilt took me a year! it was composed of several fabric packs that i got online which turned out to neither be enough fabric for their own project or match any of the other packs very well, so i had to assemble the stars very carefully. after the wild and crazy thrill of color coordination, i got really bored and stopped working on it for six months. but now it’s done! hooray :)

A whole flock of newly harvested beech branches! Beech is a great wood to work with because it's not as hard as oak, yet is much harder and holds a grain better than witch hazel and other softwoods. Beech trees give us some beautifully straight wand sticks.
