Join Broomsquire and Witch Amy Lou Taylor for a magickal afternoon of broom making! Rooted in the old ways of toolmaking, Amy will guide you through the art of crafting a set of three handmade brooms - each imbued with your own intention and purpose.
You’ll create two Kitchen Tools (a baking tester/fire starter, and a pot/cauldron scrubber), along with a larger 20" Triple Goddess Altar Broom.
As you craft your brooms, you’ll uncover the history and uses of these powerful tools, both practical and magickal. Since we will be crafting our brooms on the magickal Friday the 13th, during the waxing moon, it is the perfect time to birth them into the world with purpose.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with three unique brooms made by you, a deeper understanding of broom lore, and notes to continue your practice at home.
All supplies are included in the cost of this workshop. Please wear comfortable clothing and soft-soled shoes (or be ready to go barefoot). As well, broom making is a deceptively physical activity using repetitive hand and wrist movements as well as upper body and core muscles. Amy will also have charms and items you can use to decorate your altar broom, or you’re welcome to bring something personal to weave into your craft.
Host
As well as being the owner of TAoTaT’s Mystic Tea & Brooms and The Museum of Tasseomancy, she is also a Certified Tea Sommelier, Tea Leaf and Card Reader, Broomsquire (maker of brooms), horticulturist, organic gardener, community herbalist, Hedgewitch, Gardnerian HPS (Retired), author and artist. She facilities many programs about Tea and Brooms, some of which she has been teaching for over 25 years. Amy has always been an artist who chooses to create with things found in nature. She was making brooms over the last 20+ years, but when her father passed in 2012, she lost her muse. In late 2020, after rediscovering a 20lb box of broom corn in her basement, Amy rekindled her love and passion for creating with natural material by making brooms again. She crafts her brooms entirely by hand, and only uses and electric drill for drilling holes in wood.
