How do you decorate your book of shadows?

I was just wondering. I am quite an arty person so Calligraphy was the way for me.

Really? I wish I could do that. But, since I can't I use stencils. I painted my BOS with witchy stencils I had specially made. I make primitives. However, my bos is decorated inside and out with herbs, special stickers, borders, rub ons, lace, antique buttons, paper flowers and such.
I make bos too for anyone who might be interested. I also make journals. Everything I make is meant to look antique. You can see some of my primitives in my pics.

| What do you use to stick on the buttons? |

Wow, alura! That sounds beautiful! I'll have to look at the pix after I type this.
Mine is just a simple black faux leather journal I bought at wal-mart. For decoration I just covered the inside of the cover with various runes and symbols. Seems like more get added every month as I learn more and more. They're like a badge of honor! |

| What I did was I bought a cheap, hard cover journal and I drew a pentagram on both front cover and back cover. Then I wrote "Wicca" in the Witches alphabet. My BOS was already designed with leaves on the pages and covers, so that was all I really needed to do. |

your B.O.S. is personal, so whatever you like is always best, you may what to include in your decorations, somethat represents your element, your zodiac, you path. Sigils can be used, such as the theban or celtic runes.
