P.S. please remember that everyone's practice is their own and you should do what feels right to you while respecting that other people have their own beliefs (as long as they're not hateful).

I forgot to post it when I made it, but I brought lots of crystals recently (mainly labradorite) so I decided to do a few grimoire pages on them! If I’m able to, I really like to research crystals I’m adding to my collection. I’ll also be posting the video I filmed of the haul! I love to do little drawings / use stickers / ephemera etc in my grimoire that relates to what I’m writing about and please let me know of any other people on here / youtube / tiktok / instagram / snapchat etc that post things like this as I’m always looking for inspiration!
These pages were really fun to do, I drew 2 of the crystals I got and used a variety of glitter gel pens and dabbed my finger on it so there would be shine all over the drawing and some more intense patches of the glitter and shine to be the flashes in the crystals.

A haul I filmed for my tiktok of the crystals I got the other day. If you’re from the UK, they were ordered from dharauk on tiktok and they were such a good price, such high quality and I talked to the woman who runs this small business and she’s so lovely, highly recommend you check out her account and she does lives every week day where she shows her stunning crystals.
Also I found out the heart shell thing I didn’t recognise was a Shiva shell (also known as Pacific Cats Eye). It comes from the Operculum snail which can be found on the coasts of India, Thailand and Australia and it got it’s name from the Hindu God Shiva. I’ll probably do a grimoire page on this soon so stay tuned for more information about it and some fun drawings with it! 🐌
If anyone’s interested my tiktok account is gh0stbby333 and I do daily vlogs, witchy vids, chronic illness vids, crafts and diys, makeup, goth fit checks and makeup, journalling and lots more!
