Thank you for that, it’s one of the things that is completely wiped from my memory. I haven’t done a ton of spellwork since I’ve been back and a couple of things have been easy ones but I have some random little things sitting in my cauldron that I have to do something with. It’s not a lot but it’s starting to muddle up the energy, few candles, a garlic skin along with a few spill overs but once I handle that, I’ll know what to do going forward 😃 ---

Actually, I bag 'em and tag’em. Throw them into a ziplock, label it, and wait. If I have to reverse a spell, I’ll want those remains to use in the reversal. But after a time, I usually bury them. I like the idea of disposing according to elements! ---

> [@Nixi](#): > > Thank you for that You’re welcome, Nixi! ❤ I do the same thing- I often have leftovers sitting around or tucked away for a few days after a spell. Sometimes I tell myself it’s to “let the spellwork sink in”, but oftentimes it’s because I’m being lazy or I just can’t decide the best way to clean them up (especially the wax- it gets everywhere!) 😅 I made this little list to serve as both a reminder and push for me to clean things up- after all, the clean up doesn’t have to be a chore, it can be part of the spell experience! I’m happy if it’s helpful for you too 😊✨ Blessed be! > [@anon87969570](#): > > If I have to reverse a spell, I’ll want those remains to use in the reversal. Ohhhh spell reversals can be tricky and complicated, but having the original spell materials would help a lot to both undo or potentially redo/upgrade a spell too. I’m not surprised that your brilliant mind is one step ahead- for anyone who thinks they might need to alter a spell in the future, that is some next level planning! 😀 👍 ---
