Hello and Welcome 🌿
At TW&S I take the time and care to create beautiful (and sometimes silly) things. Inspired by the “granny crafts” that fell by the wayside in much of the modern world but that have been taken up with vigor as many have begun to seek out our roots. Infused with magic and mystery by a solitary witch, mama of two and hygge enthusiast in the PNW. 🌿
Due to Etsy prioritizing items with free shipping I have eliminated international shipping. If you’d like something shipped internationally please contact me. I’m terribly sorry about any inconvenience this may cause.
Find us across most social media platforms under: “The Well and Spindle” or “thewellandspindle” to stay informed and up to date on new products, sales, discounted items, giveaways and more!
Thank you and be well!

5 out of 5 starsI am in love! The fragrance is great and it’s not too strong. The soap is shimmery, but not glittery which I also love

5 out of 5 starsEver threaten your partner over soap? We must have 5 bars of random soap in our shower and these are literally amazing! My husband was informed to use the random bars but I KNEW he used my soap. I had to hide it in an empty body scrub jar to avoid a potential divorce. The smell, texture and quality far surpass all soaps I've ever bought. I ordered more... and decided to stock up to avoid court costs.

5 out of 5 starsI love getting things from this shop! Every time an order arrives, it feels like I’ve gotten a loving gift from my dearest friend because they pack each item with love and care. This pentacle necklace goes perfectly with a point pendant I also bought recently, and I adore it all.

About TheWellAndSpindle
~From my roots to your branches~
Hello! I’m Briar and I am the Creatrix behind “The Well and Spindle.” I began selling officially on Etsy in November of 2008 but had been serving my community long before that. I had been making and donating products I crafted for local witch and pagan fundraising events for years before I opened my shop and I knew it was a good move when my community urged me to open an online store! Having been raised by a witch and crafting my entire life, I needed to share my genuine love to create magic with the world! In my years on Etsy I have made wood burned decor, jewelry, historically influenced accessories, fiber crafts, bath and body products, herbal products, ritual tools and more. I also taught classes and hosted workshops for many years for a coven I was a part of, local pagan groups and for the local Pagan Pride Day event where I grew up (which I also vended at). As a neurodivergent person I am always branching out and yearning to learn more as part of my need to bring new life into the world around me and crush stagnancy. Finding new things to research and test being a huge interest of mine as well. Now I’m here still serving the community I have created online and beyond them.
My shop reflects my life. I cater my crafts and my need to transform things around me as I see fit.
If you would like to know more about me I am a non-binary and queer person, Inclusive Heathen, long-time Witch raised by Pagan Witch for a mother and inheriting psychic gifts from my father, mother of two (much cooler than me) neurodiverse kids, life partner to my one love, research obsessed Leo, herbalist in training, avid reader, yarn spinner, fiber artist, gardener, low key hiker and more. Some of my other interests include mythology, folklore, religious studies, Tudor history, philosophy, mycology, spirituality, magic, witchcraft, Viking age Scandinavia, history in general, divination and more!
You can find me on most social networking sites. I mainly utilize Facebook, Pinterest, TikTok, Twitter and Instagram.
Thank you for being here! I appreciate you!

Different situations call for different ways of solving problems so I will work with potential issues as they come in the best way I can manage.

Every little bit helps our precious Mother Earth. I try hard to ensure your items are protected and properly secure and also that I am not creating too much waste!

We are a furry pet free home. I promise our African Dwarf Frogs don’t come into contact with any products either.
I fully clean all areas I work in and take safety precautions.
