Poppets, Magical Dolls, & Yuletide Lore – Workshop

Poppets and dolls have been used in folk magic across Europe since the Middle Ages. Practised by nobles and peasants, cunning folk and everyday Christians, the poppet was a go-to for charms including protection and healing. Dolls are also a part of Yuletide customs, tales, and folklore.

In this hands-on workshop, our tutor Lucya Starza teaches participants how to make and use poppets for helpful aims, with a special look at festive traditions. All supplies are provided, and by the end of the session, attendees will have their own magical doll to take home.

Lucya Starza is a London-based eclectic witch whose decades of practise inform her teaching and writing. Alongside her famed and acclaimed Bad Witch's Blog, she has written books on candle magic, poppets and scrying. Most recently, she released her first novel – the gothic tale, Erosion.
