As promised I will soon be uploading the pictures others have asked for! To start you off here are a few pictures of my Basic Book of Shadows. It is a "scrapbook" design in which I keep my most common rituals and information, as well as our handfasting certificate, and other things I use most often. The pages are done on a computer and printed but I hand enter each word and proof read myself. This is done so it can be easily read, the pages are 24 lb, ivory parchment that is 8.5 x 11 inches. I have inserted them into ornate boarder pages and hand decorated each one. You don't have to do this yourself, this is just what I like. Enjoy!

This is what the inside title page looks like! |

This is an example of what the pages look like. This one is not as decorative as some are. |
Here are a few of the tools used by the coven during rituals. All of these tools are property of Lady Alice for use by coven members and are properly stored and safe guarded by her. Some were gifts, a few were inherited, and others were purchased.
