About this episode
In this cozy, creative episode, I’m joined by the magical Laura Derbyshire — witch, writer, and creator of The Handmade Grimoire — to talk all things paper, spellcraft, and sacred storytelling. Together, we explore: ✨ What makes a grimoire truly yours 🖋️ The art of crafting your magical book by hand 🌿 How to infuse intention, creativity, and spirit into every page 📜 Different ways to approach grimoire-keeping (even if you’re not a “neat” witch!) 🕯️ How working with your grimoire can become a spiritual practice of its own 🌑 Why it’s okay to tear things out, start over, or let your magic evolve Laura shares her wisdom, process, and inspiration behind her own practice and her beautiful new book — a guide for witches, creatives, and anyone longing to build something sacred with their own hands. Whether your grimoire is a leather-bound tome, a scrappy sketchbook, or a digital journal under the moonlight — this episode will inspire you to honour your magical voice and create something truly enchanting. ✨ Mentioned in this episode: The Handmade Grimoire by Laura Derbyshire Using ephemera, art, and intuition in your magical pages Building a practice that reflects your soul — not just the aesthetic Find Laura here - https://www.thebowerhare.co.uk 🕯️ The Hedge & Hollow has arrived… My Patreon has been fully re-enchanted into a seasonal home for witches and seekers — with monthly rituals, soul-led book circles, folklore magic, and more This month - 🌲 We walk The Bone Path with Baba Yaga in the Sorceress tier 🐾 And explore shadow + protection magic with Of Blood and Bones in Witches Who Run With the Wolves Join the coven at Patreon - https://patreon.com/TheHedgeandHollow?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink The kettle’s on.
