I found another lovely stick in the woods a few weeks ago and I’ve been debating what to do with it since I brought it home.
It dawned on me last week that I’ve not yet got a besom other than a mini one on my altar.
I had look at some guidance online for making one and ordered some birch branches from Etsy which arrived a few days ago.
Today was a lovely day so I sat outside and removed the bark from my stick with a chisel, then sanded it down and waxed with beeswax.
I soaked the branches in some hot water to make them more pliable and this is the result…
I might add some decoration, not sure yet, but I’m pretty happy with it

Congratulations on your besom! There’s a saying that goes: “a new broom sweeps clean”
Beautiful work and it adds so much meaning that you crafted it yourself Is it going to be hanging near the door?

Yes it’s the hallway near the front door.
I’ve had a clean with the hoover this morning so I’ll consecrate it later and having a ritual cleaning of my space.
