🥚🥚Uncle Alabaster's Guide to Eggs and Cottage Magic 🥚🥚

Keeping eggshells may sound gross or a waste of space, but believe me when I say they can be useful to a hearth or cottage witch, and even to a green witch!

COOKING - As you might expect eggs are used in plenty of dishes when it comes to cooking. From dinner to dessert, Meatloaf to Cake, and even cooking them as a stand alone item! In cooking magic, and most magics revolving around the use of eggs and their shells ; eggs correspond with fertility, protection, spirituality, and strength.

EGGSHELL POWDER - Powder made of eggshell is just as good as, if not better than, salt for protective circles. This sentiment doubles especially outside. YOU SHOULD NEVER PUT SALT IN THE EARTH. You can make egg powder by washing the eggs and letting them dry, before grinding the shell to literal dust. You want to make sure to wash it thoroughly so any yolk or white is gone. Otherwise you'll find yourself in a smelly situation.

EGGSHELL POWDER 2 : ELECTRIC BOOGALOO - Not only does this powder make a great replacement for salts, but it can be used to fertilize your houseplants, and even your outside plants. Though when using eggshells for outside you may consider NOT washing them, as that will give the plant an extra boost.

EGGSHELL PLANTERS - And last on the list is a nifty DIY flower pot. When starting herbs you can plant them inside of your old eggshells. As the plan grows you may consider planting the shell itself into a larger pot, but when first starting out this serves as a good nursery for germinating seeds.

Hopefully this gives you ideas on how you can do more with your eggshells than toss them!

Happy Witching!
