havencraft:

If you have to use a
kiddie pool for your ritual, do it. If you have to use dollar store
candles, then do that too.

We have this image
of ancient witches using incredibly expensive things because those
things are expensive *now*. Now, we have hand blown glass witch balls
– they used to be discards from the fishing industry.

Now, people spend
thousands on cauldrons. When they were just a big iron pot into which
you put stuff because big iron pots were readily available.

Utilitarian =
witchy.

Do what works for
you and ignore the naysayers. As long as your will and your power
flow, then it’s working, no matter whether you spent nothing or
thousands on the tools.
