About - Blade and Broom Botanica

At Blade and Broom, I believe that magic is the work of the Witch -- the wise or "cunning" wo/man who acts as healer, psychic, teacher, and guide to the community. The worlds of the Seen and Unseen touch and blend in ways that the Witch understands and can help her family, friends, and clients navigate.

My products and services are all aimed at helping you claim the life you desire.

This shop is dedicated to providing you with the tools and supplies to perform your own magic. If you are seeking a Village Witch to perform a working on your behalf, I offer readings, coaching, teaching, and full ritual services here.

Blade & Broom Botanica is owned and operated by Laurelei Black who has been practicing witchcraft for twenty years. She is the co-founder of the American Folkloric Witchcraft Tradition with her ex-wife, Natalie.

Laurelei first created Blade & Broom's Etsy shop in 2008 as a fundraising opportunity for her coven, Dragon's Eye Coven (which disbanded shortly thereafter without a single item being listed in the shop). The Etsy storefront sat empty until 2011, when Laurelei was inspired to share her Craeft creations with the world. Blade & Broom's sales and global reach have doubled every year since then.

Laurelei has always been the primary proprietress behind the botanica -- formulating the incenses and potions, sewing robes and poppets, maintaining the website and Etsy shop, and filling orders as they come in. Laurelei is the author of 13 books and is a certified Master Herbalist.

These days, Laurelei's children sometimes help her with label design, product packaging, and even making some of the items for sale. Witchcraft is a family business!

Payment

At this time, we accept PayPal.

Shipping

All physical items ship via USPS Priority 2-day Mail.

Combined shipping can sometimes be tricky to calculate ahead of time. The shipping costs reflected in your total *may* be higher than needed, in which case, I will send you a refund. Please bear in mind that shipping costs are meant to reflect postage, shipping container, and packing material. (We often use recycled boxes with shredded paper as padding in order to lessen our financial and environmental impact. It's our way of keeping your costs low and our Earth happy.)

International clients will need to contact me directly for a shipping quote.

At this time, all PDF books, course-guides, BOS pages, and other printables are delivered electronically via Etsy's download manager (unless otherwise noted). If you are having trouble accessing your file(s), please contact Etsy for assistance. Your views in these systems are very different from mine, so it is difficult for me to troubleshoot problems with the download process. (Of course, if it is an issue of the wrong file coming through the download, that was my error. Contact me, and I will email you the correct file.)
