Gift- IV Jo


This is a non traditional bosom. Basically a broom with a more spiritual meaning. Usually made from a handle of oak and twigs of birch, mine is made from dried grasses, leather, and some red thread. I chose red to symbolize strength and courage. Attached near the top is a dream catcher talisman, and hanging from it is a crystal. The dream catcher has its obvious use, and the crystal is to amplify the energy/idea for this besom. The besom is most often used to sweep out negativity from a space and keep it out. I chose to make this as my gift for people to remind themselves that the intention to get rid of negative thoughts and feelings is always something you can work towards. Especially in times like this.
