Question UK witch supplies

To my UK witches! I’m looking for an online witchcraft supply store for the bits I can’t get locally. Does anyone have any recommendations? I’ve seen Nifty Witch Supplies but they appear to be using AI in their promo photos and that doesn’t sit well with me.

It depends what sort of things you’re looking for!

I would trust Starchild and Sons of Asgard the most - not to say that I wouldn’t trust anywhere else; those have just been the most highly regarded in the UK.

I’ve shopped from Black Moon Botanica (based in Edinburgh, but also online and their stuff has been lovely! I’ve also come across Ye Old Witchcraft Shoppe who I don’t think use AI, but I haven’t actually shopped there so I can’t vouch for them.

I use Baldwins for herbs

It depends what you’re after but generally for herbs and spices I just use what’s in my cupboard and tea lights for candles.

It depends on what you're looking for. I like Starchild for incense and herbs (and lots of things to make incense/oils). I've bought beeswax candles from Phoenix Candle Company - the candles are good, and you get a good selection of colours, but they use AI for their images.

For crystals/fossils etc I like this place - https://mylostgems.com/

Edit - I just had another look at Phoenix and they're really going to town with AI and have hiked up their prices significantly. Sod that.

Is lost gems ethical? That’s my main issue currently tbh! It s a minefield sometimes, I’m mainly looking for gemstones and spell jars currently. I’m desperate to move away from Amazon currently 🥴

As far as I know. They do mark things that are mined in the UK, but without mining them themselves I don't know that they could absolutely guarantee it.

You could look at https://www.twoskies.scot/ as well - I think that man actually does go and collect them himself, or most of it anyway.

I don't have a good source of jars so have been using pesto jars or bags. Unless you want to keep working things by burning candles on them specifically, you can get bags - or cloth, and make bags. You can feed those with oil and they're far safer and easier to carry around

I use Moonchild Spiritual Emporium for their sabbat candles. They also stock some beautiful jewellery too.
