Hey everyone, my adopted big sis is making wands and staffs, she made me an awesome wand, its very beautiful and she is very talented. If any one would be interested in purchasing one, custom made for you please pm me. I can vouch for the quality of her work and if interested would be glad to send you a pic of my wand.

Howdy! I make wands and staffs out of wood. Maple is the variety that is prevalent in southeast Michigan. I collect only windfalls and leave knobs and wormholes for character. I like to work crooked and bumpy pieces. I finish with a clear protective coat.  |

they sound lovely! If you've any pics that you can scan in, I'd love to see them. I've a couple folks that I would like to gift, and I'd be thrilled if you could supply for me ;D My husband and I tumble crystals and semiprecious stones. If there are any that you need or would like, don't hesitate to let me know, and I'll see what we can get for you as well.

Such high accomadations! Thank you! I took 4 walking staffs and 2 wands and a spirit rattle to sell on consignment at my favorite shop THE COSMIC EYE. I put my prices low to see if there is a market for such items. If I get a good reponse, the prices will go up. (Sorry, I'm unemployeed at the present) I've got a couple of ideas for future projects/crafts. I'm excited and ready to get to work. My neighbor's children are eager to help with my crafts and gardening. (I set aside seeds from last year and have an envelope of seeds to send home for each to plant at their house). It seems I  have an enthusiastic group of anxious learners! I have no children of my own, but the kids are always coming over to see me. I went to watch my husband bowl, last night of the league. When we returned, there were 2 decorated wooden thingys, my name written in paint and a dried flower arrangement with a wonderful card in my mailbox!. Both were wonderfully decorated, and made my day! I always thought that I was mean and that I would not be a good mother. I never allowed myself to have children. The last couple of years have changed my ideas about myself, and the kids seem to be a blessing for me. I have 2 to 7 children at my house most of the time, outside playing basketball, or inside playing computer games. I have adopted them all as mine! My husband is not as thrilled. He comes home from work thinking he is going to relax. Doesn't happen. Weather has warmed up in Michigan an I'm wanting to work some wood. Kids are anxious to help search for and collect. I take pride in my work. Making your own tools is a wonderful thing, but if you don't have the time or feel your skills are not to your standards, I will try to make you happy. I can mount which stones(if any) you want. I look for pieces that have crooks, bends and bumps. They are harder to work, but are beautiful. Wands are one thing, a walking staff is not a magical tool to most, is for others. wands are very personal. Choose with your intuition! Love, Nightwindchaser |
