Good to see you posting again, Wolfie!! *Hugs*

thanks for that, marcia, but they're referring to witches in the kitchen, like real witches. what i'm referring to is the european folksy kitchen witches that are hung in the kitchen for good health. they are actually dolls on brooms and are for decorative purposes.

I thought the bottom url I posted from google carried them all......haftq check more. Sorry

~wolf Tue, Jul 4, 2000 (11:39) #9

it did, but there were messages about the doll not the origin. and lots and lots of stuff on being a kitchen witch! (did that google search myself and there were so many results, i was overwhelmed!) *HUGS*

Gonna have to modify it then... I'll do it as soon as I get the hormonally rampant men get off my IM program *grin*

This page has a good description and a bad teeny picture http://www.thesalemwitch.com/itm00048.htm Instructions for making a Kitchen Witch: http://www.sculpey.com/projects_kitchendol.htm

yes, Yes, YES!!! thanks marcia, this is more like it. i've got stuff to make my witch and if i'm successful, maybe i'll make some as gifts. but it'd be nice to include a card as to the origin of these gals. i'll keep looking for that. thanks for those sites!!!! *HUGS*
