Another JOL box and Acorns for magic



This set is now in my Etsy Shop. The acorns caps are real.
I found some interesting folklore on the acorns. They were used as a divination tool on Halloween night. Lovers would take 2 acorns and each would place 1 in the same bowl of water. If they floated together they would marry. If they floated apart they would not and if they sunk death! Mine are not ment for this game but I thought the folklore was fun!

Thanks for coming by my blog today. It looks like a lot of us are doing acorns this year(and I always think I am being so original), it's funny how all us artists always seem to be in sync! I like your dripping horror lettering on your spell box very much, I bet you love old black and white horror movies!
