Witchcraft on a Budget

We don’t all have the funds for elaborate altars and extensive collections of tools. Here are some tips for shopping sales and using stuff around your home.

Use the contents of teabags for your spells. If you’ve already got a collection of teas, why not incorporate them into your practice.

Grow your own herbs. If you’ve got the space to, grow herbs in your garden, balcony, windowsill. Research what plants work best for your situation. You can also grow many grocery store herbs by sticking them in a jar of water!

Learn the magical properties of your spices. If you like to cook, you probably have a collection of your preferred herbs and spices in your cabinet. Make a list of their uses so you can substitute them in spells or craft your own spells.

Shop the clearance aisle. Craft stores often have jars and bottles of all sizes that end up in the clearance section. Stores that sell home goods will sometimes have candles on clearance.

Use birthday candles. You can get handfuls of birthday candles at the grocery store for cheap. Don’t worry about getting fancy candles when any candle will work just as well. They also often come in a variety of colors that you can use for different correspondences.

Make a pocket altar. Maybe you don’t have the space or money for a large altar. That’s ok! Re-use a small box or tin and fill it with symbols of your craft and deity if you have one.

Save orange peels. If you like to eat oranges, dry out the peels in the sun after you are done with them. They can be crushed up and used in spells for positivity or energy. You can also use the peels to make essential oil.

Buy zines. You don’t have to shell out $60 for a new book on witchcraft. There are many etsy shops that offer guides to witchcraft for under $10. If you can’t pay shipping fees, many shops also offer digital versions. You can also look for local witch shops and bookstores that may have free or cheap zines.

Use crushed eggshells. Eggshells can be used in place of salt to line doorways and protect your home. Be sure to rinse them. This can also be a more environmentally friendly way of protection because salt can damage soil and harm local flora and fauna.
