So let’s dive in…

1. Imbolc candles

Craft your own candles to honour Imbolc and the goddess Brigid.

Use white or pastel wax to symbolize purity and renewal, and infuse the candles with herbs like lavender or rosemary for added power. As they burn, visualize the light returning to your life. Get your supplies here:

• Premium Natural Soy Wax Flakes (plus 100 wicks) – great all-round, easy-to-melt wax
• 2 lb Pure White Beeswax Pellets – Highly recommended, beeswax is the creme-de-la-creme when it comes to candlemaking. Also use this for soap and cosmetics.
• Candle Making Kit with Boiler – comes with a boiler and little electric stove, and makes melting wax SO much easier!
• Candle Making Kit – DIY Starter Kit – an amazing starter kit if you’re new to candle making

2. Brigid’s cross

You’ve likely seen these on social media, they’re a really popular craft for Imbolc and a beautiful symbolic decoration. Making Brigid crosses is also a gorgeous, meditative ritual practice. It involves weaving and folding rushes and/or grasses to make a cross. Its origins are much older than the Christian cross, and when placed in your home, it’s believed to protect against negative energy, evil spirits, fire, and hunger.

Try making your own.

There are so many blogs and videos on Youtube explaining how to make one. I love THIS video from Active Culture Family and  THIS simple tutorial.

3. Milk and honey bath bombs

Channel self-love and nourishment by crafting bath bombs with powdered milk, honey, and adding essential oils like rose or vanilla. These luxurious bombs turn bath time into a cleansing and magical ritual, perfect for February’s energies of both love, and devotion.

Package with recyclable materials (like these cardboard soap boxes) and label with ingredients and spiritual properties.

5. Wand

By February, the worst of the winter storms are ususally done, making this a great time to go out and forage for the perfect piece of fallen wood to make a wand.

Decorate it with carved symbols, or sigils, and wrap it with threads and ribbon. Top with a crystal point of your choice.

6. Herbal love sachets

Sew small fabric sachets filled with love-enhancing herbs like rose, hibiscus, and lavender. Tuck them into your pillow for sweet, loving dreams or carry them to attract love and harmony into your life.

For added guerilla gardening power, keep a bag of them in your car, or by your front door.  When you go out walking you can cast them into disused and neglected corners of your neighbourhood, to add some flower power!

8. Knotted love bracelets

Use red, pink, or white threads to create knotted bracelets for love and friendship. With each knot, focus on an intention or affirmation. Wear them to carry your intentions with you, or gift them to loved ones.

• Place a piece of parchment paper down on an ironing board, and place the fabric on top.
• Sprinkle grated beeswax over the fabric as evenly as you can, then add another piece of parchment over the top (make sure the paper is larger than the fabric, to prevent leakage)

14. Glass lanterns

Simple but SO effective when made beautifully, lanterns can be made by repurposing old glass jars and filling them with candles or fairy lights.

Enhance them by wrapping twine or ribbon around the jars, or incorporating natural elements like moss or evergreen sprigs.

Place your lanterns on tables, along pathways, or by doorways to create a cosy ambience, and welcome back the light, on chilly February nights.

15. Poetry

Invoke the creative spirit of Brigid by writing poetry.

Not quite a craft, but a gorgeous creative activity to do this month.

Put together verses that honour the season, celebrate love, or even explore your magical, mythical journey.

Share your poems in a ritual or keep them as a personal spell to revisit throughout the year.

February’s quiet, emergent energy is the perfect time to gather your energy and begin to infuse your life with conscious, oragnic magick through crafting.

Whatever you decide to make, I hope the winds of this gorgeous month carry you ever higher, from Imbolc, through Valentine’s day, to the warmer, first days of March.
