Grouse Witch

If you follow my Tumblr blog (it's my not-so-daily-but-almost laid back personal space, but with even more swearing (if you can believe it)) you'll know I've begun buying jewelry pieces to alter, deconstruct and resell.
A few weeks back I won a vintage kilt pin in the shape of a grouse's claw with the intention of modifying it, but when it arrived I found myself smitten. (<- A frequent occurrence. I suppose that's what happens when you limit yourself to buying things you'd actually wear yourself.)
Today was our first big day out in MONTHS (I'm deep in the country every fucking day, but we only make it into town once every 3-4 months) so the brooch got strung up with a few of my crystals (lapis, quartz), a wrench pendant, my new teardrop moonstone and a yoni-shaped Virgin Mary medal and immediately looked at home amongst the waterfall of charms and amulets.
