Megan,  
Thanks you for your support and love, putting labels on bottle’s has taken awhile! Lots of patience and it didn’t happen overnight.  
For this challenge I did the

I wanted to make a oil to bless the home and I did I called out to Lady Brighid this is her offering, I made a Corn dolly to go along with this blessing! I pray 🙏🏽 my home good blessings! Also I made some incence and burned all the botanicals and I got a real earthy smell with the sacred smoke 💨! I feel blessed 😇 this year with how well my dolly came out! I think it’s bigger and she has long hair like mine. I opened my sacred circle and used sage to cleanse my bottle. I called out to all of botanicals to aid me as well. The bottle was blessed with sacred smoke! My home is going to be blessed with this beautiful anointing oil.

I have a shelf of jars, a package of smaller jars in my witchy items bag, then different-sized mason jars under my bed, jars of all kinds just kind of… wherever I can find them a home 🤣

We do the same thing with them, we’ve had so many with batches of sauce that we had to use quart-sized or gallon-sized freezer bags before. We do it with batches of chili & beef stew types of meals too 😂

The pesto jars from the same brand are as well just with a regular jar cover. I have found may creative ways to use it and have a good collection of those as well. I tend to forget that my left hand is a little weaker and regularly drop things so the thicker jars are my first choice. I think the other sets of feet in the house prefer them too 😂

I save spice jars too, all sizes & if I go to a thrift store & see interesting bottles & jars, they come home with me. My kids have found bottles on jobsites or at the beaches & brought them home to me along with little bags & pouches 🤣

## Challenge Entry

Last week was… rough… I got through it & since Friday have been very good about meditating 🧘‍♀️ in the AM. Today, I did & then before I set up my spell jar, I had to again… even if I wasn’t making up the spell jar, I would have had to… so it was really helpful to do it.

I used @SilverBear recent post: [Spell Jar To Connect with Element Earth](https://forum.spells8.com/t/spell-jar-to-connect-with-element-earth/34064) to base my spell jar off of… I am the Queen 👑 of tweaking so that’s exactly what I did.

 ![20230130_141155](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/7/9/79310c9204d9a24339b574a5a5b0818888120ffc.jpeg)

I used [Black Tourmaline](https://forum.spells8.com/t/black-tourmaline-info/11056) & [Smokey Quartz](https://forum.spells8.com/t/smoky-quartz-information/10587) for crystals. I also used Mugwort, Comfrey, & Bay Leaves for herbs 🌿

I added mini pinecones & put a couple of drops of Pine Essential Oil on each one. Then I added a few drops of Frankincense Essential Oil to the jar. I placed the cork on it & used my Green 🕯 candle to drip some wax around the top & cork.

The intentions were for grounding, repel negative/unwanted energies, protection of my home, balance, purification using the element of earth :earth_element:

**Challenge Entry**

I made my first true spell jar this week!

I’ve been trying to learn about a new herb every day and used what the information I had gathered so far to create this one for prosperity with some crystals as well. I added tiger’s eye, goldstone, agate, clear quartz, dill, nutmeg, thyme, basil, dandelion, allspice and mint.

I thought about each ingredient as I put it in, tucked a small note in there and sealed it shut with wax - then realized I forgot to put the dime in there 😆 So I tucked it in some allspice, meditated as I did, and sealed it to the jar with wax.

Planning on keeping it on my new/old hutch that we setup this weekend and meditating on the little note I tucked in daily.

I also ended up making two spell jars with my daughter and had a lot of fun with that as I got to teach her some about herbs. We made her a protection one and a happiness one.

Loved this challenge so much! It pushed me to learn more and grow more in my journey.

I love this idea! I can find mini pinecones in my yard all summer and now I have more of a reason to collect them.

So true! I think my next spell jar will be for self-love. Thank you for the inspiration ❤

I love this idea! I’ve been working on letting go of the past and need some help at times. I think this would be a huge help for me to remember to move forward with gratitude, like you said.

Your self-love bottle is so pretty and sounds so magickal!

SO pretty!

I love how the layers turned out! I ordered some similar sized bottles to that so I could do something similar as my current ones are either too small or ginormous. Love how yours turned out!

Oooh, now I want to make one similar for dreary days! It’s beautiful!

Weekly Witchy Challenge- Spell Jars & Witch Bottles

I decided to follow the Self-Love Jar Spell here on Spells8 for my jar. I’ve been wanting to make it for awhile now and didn’t have the time or all the ingredients.  
So, I made this jar, because I need to love myself more. It’s as simple as that. I need to be easy on myself and remember I’m human too. We all make mistakes, have bad days, get angry, feel guilty. Emotions are part of life. I also made a small necklace jar so I can wear or take it with me wherever I go,

 ![IMG_20230130_141611845](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/d/d/dd7b3f9dfb1d729d497d4a59ab288eec4b533ea4.jpeg)  
and I can display the bigger jar to remember to love myself, forgive myself, and be easy on myself. I hope you all like it. I had a really nice, peaceful time making it by myself. I have a 3yr old so it can be hard to find time lol.  
Anyways, thanks for letting me share my experience and Blessed Be everyone! I love you all! 💗

Leave it to me to create the jar, have it in my hand to put it in my purse, get distracted & now… no idea where I put it down 🤣 So I’m hoping when I move out of my space, that I had put it down on the table by my purse where it was supposed to end up. 😂
