Witch Orb Workshop with Thurlow Witchy Co
Come join in on the magic of making a witch’s ball. Witch’s balls became popular in the 16th/17th century to protect the home from ill will, evil spirits, and spells. They bring happiness, protection, and abundance to everyone in the house. They can be hung in windows, bookshelves, or Christmas trees. Witch’s balls are filled with herbs, spices, and crystals. Glitter and string are included to attract the evil/ill will and trap it in the ball. If you’re looking for positivity in your home, this is calling your name!
