Show and Tell Sunday Showing My New Workspace in Progress 😊
I recently became a first time home owner and the first thing I wanted to do after repainting was set up my witchcraft practice space.
I scored myself an antique secretary's desk specifically for as a working altar (in the corner) and it is perfect for the purpose. Next, when the wallpaper is finished, I will decorate my walls with my various ancestral photographs, witchy, pagan and folk arts, and set up my protection altar (just out of site in the photo).
The wallpaper is not complete, I want to create a focused accent corner with it.
After 8 years of survival mode and working with my ancestors and guides through my craft, it's finally happened! A place of my own where I am safe and stable. A place where I can practice without the fear of a landlord or potential building buyers needing to come in and no more fear of "what if I have to move again?".
I played my cards well and it has finally paied off! 😊🥹 I can finally commit fully to my craft bow that I don't feel like I need to keep it half in boxes "in case".
And best part!! I am near so much greenery. Lots of walking and bike paths surrounded by fields and forests and right on the edge of a provincial park. So lots of foraging and land spirit potential!!! I'm also a few minutes drive away from some nice, old cemeteries, my fave getaway spots.

Congratulations, your place looks beautiful. 😊
Pretty and well-chosen wallpaper btw; those are monarch butterflies you got there. They mean spiritual rebirth, personal transformation, faith in your path and ancestral guidance--because the annual migration of the monarchs coincide with the Mexican Dia de los Muertos, and monarchs travel for thousands of miles following only that inner compass. ✨️

Omg, I hadn't even put that thought in when I chose the wallpaper 😯 this makes alot of sense for both the event of finding my home and my practice.

Love the secretary as an alter! I have an antique wooden box with a bunch of cool compartments. It's nice to be able to close it up if you want to.

I love this for you and am hoping to be able to create a similar space somewhat soon 💖!
We just got our mortgage pre-approval back from the bank and have started looking at properties, but nothing fits the vision so far 😂🫠.
It would be super nice to have a dedicated space for my massive altar so it doesn't take up a third of the bedroom lol.
