Another glorious photo by @misformirrors
This one features her Algiz Vördr & Key to Hell talismans.
Morgana was the person who first commissioned a Key to Hell from me.
I am endlessly grateful to those of you who come to me with unique ideas and trust me with bringing them into the World.
Never, ever hesitate!

More self-portraits by @ingridthry featuring her Tower Emblem.
Visit her photography account to discover her work @_ingrid.thierry_
The Emblem was part of the Dungeon-Synth inspired “Oubliettes” collection I did in collaboration with @gwendolinoleum
The Emblem comes with your weapon of choice:
- the Tower,
- the Wand,
- the Key or
- the Dagger
Each is hand-crafted by me with sustainable, recycled sterling silver.

Artist @gwendolinoleum wearing his Irom Otnemem amulet with an Air Solve & Coagula talisman (see second image for a close-up).
We took these photos among the ruins of a Medieval Castle hidden in the mountains.
How I adore the ivy crawling unto these decrepit towers and dungeon…
Jef, my husband, is also a talented artist. He is the one who creates the covers & illustrations for all my Magick Kits.
His personal work is incredible, you can see more on his page: @gwendolinoleum

Let me present you my latest magick kit: !
The art of tea leaves reading - also known as tasseography or tasseomancy - appears to have begun around the XVIIth century, when the Chinese tea trade made its way into European society thus replacing the old techniques based upon spatters of lead or wax.
My kit was created to introduce you to this method and includes everything one needs to begin immediately!
It is READY TO SHIP and might even arrive in time for Lupercalia / Valentine’s!
It contains:
✥ VINTAGE TEACUP & SAUCER
Delicate yet generous and sturdy.
✥ LOOSE TEA
Your pick from a selection from @missmapletearoom.
✥ DIVINATION INCENSE
Organic and handcrafted by me.
✥ BOOKLET
Very simple instructions on how to start Tasseomancy.
✥ SYMBOLS & DIAGRAMS A5 CARD
Dictionary of 168 symbols with their possible explanation on one side.
Two Diagrams on how to read your cup on the back.
The card & booklet are illustrated by @gwendolinoleum
All the details can be found in the sh⋄p or on the blog (links in profile)

Some analogue photographs of @amayaamasia by @helenaaguilarmayans from our photoshoot “Les Champs Léthargiques”, five years ago.
Amaya wears some Shízhánee’ rings, the Runic drop & studs earrings as well as a couple of Runic bracelets.
I loved this piece. Should I bring it back?

Hope you all enjoy and critique would be helpful :)
“She took me for for several walks in the great woods; to try whether the voluptuous dreaming and amorousness with which tender souls are inspired by the thick and kindly shade of the forests might not be turned to her advantage.”

Safely back home in Ohio after the @darksomecraftmkt at the @mountmoriahcemetery I had such a lovely time! Thank you so much to @cabinetofcuriousclay for all your hard work organizing and to everyone who came out to shop and say hello!
Now I’m working hard on some last pieces for the @salemnightfaire next weekend! I cannot wait to visit Salem and see all the other lovely vendors at the Faire! @voodooodolly and I will be there together along with @thorns_clothing
I’m printing a few market exclusive pieces along with the very last run of my Halo hats and Witch hats. I’ve decided to retire them after this market for good. I’m also bringing Salome crop tops, Hel dresses and the newly finished Gruoch skirts (formerly the War skirt now renamed after Gruoch ingen Boite Queen of Alba and wife of Macbeth) if you’re around the Salem/Boston area stop by and say hello! We’ll be there in the @pioneervillage1630 both Friday and Saturday and I know the whole @salemnightfaire is going to be an incredible spectacle.

Finishing up final touches for tonight’s shop update at 8pm est and the Salome pre-order launch!
The ready made pieces for this update are black linen Göndul dresses!
The Salome pre-order opens at 8pm est tonight and closes Monday the 16th at 8pm est. I’m so excited about the new colors! (Swipe to see them) there is a 3 month lead time for these pieces, but I will begin shipping as soon as my seamstress and I finish them!
The Black and White tops will be made in the same lightweight linen and the new colors will be slightly heavier and more opaque.
The preorder will be listed in the Etsy shop as well. Quick reminder that the Etsy shop is for UK orders only. If you live anywhere else the I Do Declare webshop is for you! There is a size chart available on the website all the way at the bottom of the page.
Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!
I hope you all had a lovely Friday the 13th!

I’ll be doing a small drop of Natalie skirts this Friday. They are all wool in black or black and green stripes with hand tarnished buttons. I really like this as a style for the end of winter and the beginning of spring!
In other news the Linen Bise dresses are almost done. Because of shipping delays they’ve been set back a bit. Everyone waiting on their preorders will be getting an email from me soon with all the info. I appreciate everyone’s patience so much!
I’m so eager for spring to arrive. I got out all my seeds and I’m ready to dive into my garden as soon as it stops freezing overnight.

I’ll be adding another handful of the Hel dresses to the shop in the coming days. The next update will be in February and will finally include some of the armor pieces! I hope you’re all as excited as I am about them! I’ve had the best time getting all the pattering just right and picking the materials for these. I’ll also be adding a few one of a kind styles around d the same time.

have you read a book that made your eyes water at the end so you could not read the book properly but you wanted that to happen because you did not want to complete that book and when the tear finally fell you felt relieved but you also wanted to forget you ever read the book just to reread it and feel that flutter of heart again
“When we long for a life without difficulties, remind us that oaks grow strong in contrary winds” This real oak leaf pendant is coming to the shop this Thrusday! ✨Shop Update: July 15th 12pm est✨ Market of the Beast this Weekend!
