Welcome @KylieEy and @michael9!

While I don’t recommend reusing materials that may have taken on negative energy (for example, materials used in [Black/Baneful Magick](https://forum.spells8.com/t/what-do-you-think-about-traditional-modern-black-magick/11954) or for drawing negative energy- I’d suggest [ritually disposing these](https://forum.spells8.com/t/disposal-of-spell-remains/2669)), I agree with Benjamin about the benefits of repurposing 👍

I think the act of repurposing can give used materials a new life, which can then be used anew for different spellwork. For an extra boost, you could incorporate some element of cleansing to clear the energy as part of the repurposing process ♻

Good luck and blessed spellwork! ✨
