🖤 DIY: Witch's Black Salt | Hannabal Marie 🖤

Hello everyone, I am going to be posting more witchy related content on this blog. I dabble in the occult and a lot of my stuff is usually done in the solitude of my own house but I feel I'm at a stage in my life that I want to share what I commonly know with those who aren't familiar with it. Surely, I'm not going to get too personal for my own sake but the basics will benefit just about everyone. From student to teacher. I will admit, I'm still learning myself BUT what I do know, I want to post. Maybe it will cross the path of someone who needs to find it. If you already know, don't be rude. Add in the comments what you'd like to contribute as an extended portion of what I have already posted but please don't be rude. I am always looking for alterations and different takes on things. The more, the better. The beauty of personal recipes is that we tailor them to what we find useful for ourselves. This works for me, that works for you. Together we can inspire and aspire. So, my first recipe to share today will be a common Black Salt.

Black Salt is widely known as an all encompassing protective salt that can be used for various different things--protection spells, banishing, breaking hexes. And in the reverse--to lay down hexes and curses. It can be sprinkled under pillows to ward off bad dreams, stored in jars or boxes to get rid of unwanted guests or spirits, cast a line across your door or window to barrier negative energies away, use in floor washes/door washes/cleansing ritual area, add into the bath whenever you feel depressed/angry/upset, keep it on your person to ward off gossip/bad influences/negativity, use it as an offering for Underworld deities/dark goddesses, as an offering to fire elementals/ancestors, use for any Dark Moon ritual, add in protected cases that contain your Scrying tools...you get the picture. It's a very powerful tool to add into your witchy cabinet. 

Remember: Black Salt absorbs negativity. So, if you use this as a protective barrier--sweep it into the dirt to ground it, wash it away or cleanse the area free of it.

Witchy Review: Gh0stP0nyGoods Custom Herbal Apothecary Spell Jars!

Hello ladies and gents

For my birthday this year, my mother got me some custom spellwork jars from a company called Gh0stP0nyGoods. A quick scroll through their Etsy page shows that Gh0stP0nyGoods is about the occult and the *natural* lifestyle also known as "vulture culture" to some people. (recycling materials, scavenged animal bones, herbs, etc.) Definitely my cup of tea...err, coffee?! 
I'm a big lover of all things witchy and curio--being that my blog here consists of all forms of both of those things--I knew I had to dedicate a post solely on these beautifully crafted bottles.

99 CENT STORE & DOLLAR TREE GALORE--Checking out ALL the penny stores for Halloweeny goods!

Hello ladies and gents, 
I thought it would be an awesome idea to check all my local penny stores for Halloween goodies. When I mean "all" I actually mean every. single. store accessible in my location. You see, we have about 2 99 Cent Stores & 2 Dollar Trees in my general direction. Normally, we'd pick one and be happy for the whole year--but this year, we thought we'd try them all. Hey now, I know this isn't a big deal for the lot of you guyts but it's a HUGE deal for me! So, pretend to be impressed! hahaa

I took the liberty of taking some shots of the goodies we had available at the stores. Nothing like coming back to old posts years after to remember the fun stuff I passed because I wanted something else instead of it. hahaa

💚Wicked Witch Makeup Look by Hannabal Marie💚

Hello ladies and gents,
The WITCH is back! I decided to transform into my real self for October. 
So pray tell, my pretty...is the wicked witch 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 dead?

In the life of a Witch, there is no "after" in the "ever after." There is no "happily." In the story of a Witch, there is no afterword. Of that part that is beyond the life story...beyond the story of her life, there is--alas--(or perhaps thank mercy!!) no telling. She was dead. Dead and gone. All that was left of her was the carapace of her reputation for malice. I am her malice. Fury. Passion & betrayal. I am the essence of her, whispered from the womb of her tomb. The ash birthed a creature even death couldn't condemn.



































This has been an ongoing joke with a lot of people I used to know. Them calling me the "wicked witch" as some form of insult. So, today I wanted to make her come to life. Dress myself up as the very words and make her my own! I think me and the wicked witch have a lot in common.

⭐Ravyn Grove Elemental--Beautifully Hand-Poured Hoodoo Voodoo Candles⭐ | Hannabal Marie

This big o' box was waiting for me on my front porch. 


























To some people, a candle is merely a candle. A object of light when no light is around. 
A wishing rod on someone's birthday 
or even a dainty little trinket you put on your vanity to "spruce up a room"
Now, the aesthetic of candles have always been an attraction to me but I can't stress how important they are to someone in the craft. 

They are the connecting pillars to our deities or vessels of magic. 
When a candle is present, so is our god/goddess (or none at all, or perhaps yourself! 
Everyone is different and everyone believes differently.) 
But to me, I can feel a powerful force or rather, a powerful "connection" whenever I light a candle. 
It makes me feel as if I am on a higher plateau than I already am. 

By lighting a candle, we are harnessing the power of fire to bring about a change. Fire, for those unaware, is an element of transformation. Fire can help or fire can take away. It can melt wax, turn organic matter into ash. Softens hard metals. It can boil water, heat substances and even warm you on a bone chilling night. It can be warmth or it can be chaos. Solely depends on you and what you bend the fire into. 
Everything was secured and double wrapped with bubble wrap. As you can plainly see, everything was packaged quite nicely! The box even had bubble mailers and those air shipping pillows. :) 


I'm not going to sit here and pull out the history books but candles have been around (or rather, the idea of fire being powerful has been around) for a very long time. In the prehistoric days, it was looked at and even feared as something "divine" and/or "god-like." There is a long and dark history about candles that truly shines light on the occult.

"Tarot of Bones" Review/Showcase | Hannabal Marie



Hello ladies and gentlemen,
Very rarely do I ever feel a connection quite as strong as I did
when I first seen this deck of tarot cards.



Tarot of Bones instantly spoke to me in a way that was more than human words.
An animal voice speaking to the animal within.
That was how I felt when I first seen this beautiful deck of Tarot cards.

Lupa, the creator behind Tarot of Bones, with the help of Sandra Swan behind the camera,
did an amazing job in capturing and displaying nature for what it truly is--life and death.

♥️ Le Noir Bazaar "Mystery Box" Unboxing/Showcase ♥️ | Hannabal Marie

All the goodies I got from my mystery box! 


Hello ladies and gents
Mystery Boxes have been something that has been going around quite frequently.
With the wide array of selections, it's hard to choose one that will fit to all your dark and GORE-gous needs.
that is, until I stumbled onto this Mystery Box from Le Noir Bazaar! 

 For around $25 dollars, you get one huge (and quite heavy, by my own experience!) box of goodies that should, as the website states, be a total of more than $50 dollars worth of items for your buck.
All full of dark, alternative, Gothic and witchy items that will fit your style (and lifestyle) to a perfect and complete "T."

Their monthly mystery boxes include a hand-picked selection of at least five spooky, witchy, & bohemian jewelry, accessories, bath products & more to your doorstep. 
Every box is at random, so you will never end up with the same one someone else will get. 
*hence the Mystery Box aspect of this beautiful thing!*


I want to also address the actual box itself!
It's so beautiful and well detailed! I am actually going to keep all my goodies inside it as a keepsake!

⭐🌚⭐ "Roots of Samhain" Halloween Inspired Hair ⭐🌝⭐ | Hannabal Marie



Hello ladies and gents
I wanted to get back in touch with my roots (giggle) and try out a very loud, creative hairstyle.

So, for the sake of Halloween (Samhain) 
I decided to do something associated with this beautiful season.
Something that speaks mystery and darkness...with that lovely twist of the unknown. 

I decided to go black and white.
White being the frontal parts and black the remainder of my hair. 

I had to bleach my front parts for a while. Get them to a nice yellowy stage before the purple tone.

4 Year Anniversary Gift Unboxing // Hannabal Marie

Hello ladies and gents
Today I have a lovely unboxing for you all.
My sweet boyfriend decided to make me a homemade gift for our 4 years anniversary of knowing each other.
Around 4 years ago, we said our first "hello" to each other. :)

It wasn't until recently that we decided to take our friendship to that "next level", so thus--the anniversary was born. hahaa

So, enough with chit-chat--allow me to show you the sweet gift I got from my sweetheart~ 
He handmade me this beautiful witchy candle.

🌿 Rooted Gifts Review 🌿 // Hannabal Marie

 Hello ladies and gents
I bring you all something that is near and dear to my heart.
I while back I contacted this amazing company
and asked if they could spare an item for a review.
I was completely unaware of the magic that
was going to be bestowed onto me
by a lovely company called Rooted Gifts!
