Mabon Countdown Day 15

Mabon Garland

Like most things in this collection (and for any other Sabbat) this is based a lot over your own intuition and your preferences, I never make them the same way twice. I love to use my intuition and knowledge of herbs, incenses, and spices to create a unique experience for the Sabbat that I am creating it for.

As some of you are newer to the craft here are some suggestions for Mabon so that you might pick and choose what feels right to add to your garland;

Strings or ribbons in the colours brown, orange, red (maroon and other shades as well), deep gold, or violet. 

Some herbs and spices that can be chosen for your garland are; cinnamon, rosemary, pine, clove, sage, yarrow, rue, and chamomile.

You can also add some dried flowers such as, rose, mums, sunflowers, marigolds, and honeysuckle.

When cleansing your items for this garland you can use incenses such as clove, cinnamon, rose, patchouli, pine, apple, cedar and sandalwood.

With this knowledge in mind here are a few extra things you may want to add; dried oranges, cranberries, acorns and leaves.

What you will absolutly need for this craft;

• needle and some kind of string

• a branch (if you wish to have it hang if not you may just string the things on with with needle and thread)
