From ethically sourced hazel or chestnut branches to symbolic elements, discover how each component contributes to the energy and purpose of a broom.

  • Large brooms are about 130cm / They are handled with two hands and are the traditional witch’s broom.

Delve into the craft of binding as you secure your broom's components with purpose and precision. Explore decorative techniques that allow you to personalize your broom, incorporating symbols, colours, and charms that resonate with your magical path.
