Kitchen Witch Essentials: Magical Décor and Tools

Hanging Herb Drying Racks

I love to grow herbs and dry them myself. These herb drying racks make preserving your harvest easy while adding a little old-world apothecary charm to your space.

Marble Mortar and Pestle

Every kitchen witch needs a trusty mortar and pestle for grinding herbs and crushing spices. This natural stone set brings a timeless, earthy touch to your countertop while earning its keep in everyday cooking. Marble is my personal favorite, but they also come in various woods and stone types.

Two-Tier Lazy Susan Spice Rack

If you’re anything like me, your spice collection probably rivals a small apothecary, making this two-tier Lazy Susan a welcome addition to your kitchen. Keep your most-used herbs and seasonings within reach while giving your countertop a charming, organized upgrade.

Pro-tip: I swap some of my spice rotation seasonally so I can lean into a variety of different correspondences and flavors all year without overthinking it!

Clear Glass Simmer Pot

Who needs an expensive room spray when you can fill your home with the natural aromas of citrus, cinnamon and fresh herbs? This clear glass simmer pot lets you watch your ingredients (literally) work their magic, refreshing your space with seasonal scents throughout the year.

Flower Cast-Iron Trivets

Protect your countertops with a little floral flair! These cast-iron trivets bring vintage-inspired charm to your kitchen while giving hot pots and pans an aesthetically pleasing place to land.

Rustic Ceramic Utensil Holder

Even your wooden spoons and spatulas deserve an enchanting home. This rustic black ceramic utensil holder adds the perfect amount of moodiness for a witchy kitchen.

Decorative Cookbook Stands

Keep your favorite recipes open and your hands free with a cookbook stand that’s just as lovely as the meals you’re making. Find one that matches best with your kitchen aesthetic!

Wall-Mounted Wooden Mug Rack

Give your favorite mugs a place to hang out when they’re not holding your latest brew. A wall-mounted wooden rack creates a cozy display while freeing up precious cabinet space for your ever-growing collection of kitchen essentials. It can’t be hoarding if it’s also used for display, right?

Vintage Coffee and Tea Stirring Spoons

A teaspoon is a magical tool when you’re stirring intention into your afternoon tea or morning coffee. I love to use these Victorian-inspired ones because not only do I feel fancy, but it helps me with the visualization portion of my practices.

Acacia Wood Recipe Box with Phone Holder

Even the most seasoned witch can’t remember every recipe (or spell) by heart! This two-in-one recipe box keeps my tried-and-true favorites organized while the built-in phone holder makes it easy to try new recipes I find online.

Kitchen Witchery Correspondence Wall Art

I don’t always have the time to flip through my book of correspondences if I don’t remember my correspondences for certain herbs or spices. This hanging kitchen witchery guide helps as a quick and easy reference whenever you’re cooking with intention.

Hanging Kitchen Witch Doll

Traditionally associated with good luck and protection, kitchen witch dolls make charming companions year-round, whether you choose a hanging doll or a tiny figurine. I found mine in Salem and especially recommend seeking out handmade versions from local artisans, although this little witch is especially adorable.

Witch’s Broom Stained Glass Suncatcher

Let a little sunshine and sorcery brighten your kitchen window with this witch’s broom-inspired suncatcher. It’s an easy way to add a touch of witchy whimsy to your kitchen without turning your kitchen into a Halloween headquarters.

Cinnamon-Scented Mini Broomsticks

These little cinnamon-scented broomsticks aren’t just for Halloween! Hang them from kitchen cabinet knobs or tuck them into cozy corners for a festive touch and a sweet, spicy aroma. Some also come adorned with charms and layered with other herbs like lavender.

Cast-Iron Good Luck Horseshoes

Hanging a horseshoe above a doorway is a long-known tradition to bring luck into the home and block out “negative spirits,” and one that’s especially close to my heart since my grandmother hung one above her kitchen door—which was something she grew up with as well. Carry a little of that folk tradition into your own home with rustic, cast-iron horseshoes. I bought mine from a reputable shop in Salem, but here’s one that fits the vibe.

Remember: Always use ethical sources and do your research. Shopping locally is also encouraged!

Handmade Witch Bells

Traditionally hung near entryways or on your doorknob for spiritual protection, witch bells let you know who’s coming and going—physically and…perhaps, astrally. I keep one on my kitchen door, as it leads to the backyard, as well as my front door.

Potions, Elixirs & Brews

Turn your next beverage into a little ritual with this collection of magical drink recipes and inspiration! It’s a fun addition to your bookshelf for anyone who enjoys blending intention with a nice, homemade brew.

The Witch’s Feast: A Kitchen Grimoire

I love how this kitchen grimoire explores the magic of food and cooking. It offers inspiration for more elaborate meals, including recipes and ideas for seasonal gatherings.

Cheese Magic: Seasonal Recipes, Plates, and Pairings

I’m obsessed with charcuterie, and I absolutely adore this book. Especially if you’re not someone who likes to cook but loves some brie, this book brings a magical twist for anyone who loves putting together a beautiful spread for friends—or themselves!

Cunningham’s Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs

I’ve had this book for over a decade, and it’s considered as a staple reference for anyone interested in exploring the traditional magical associations of herbs. This book isn’t limited to just culinary herbs either.  This has been my companion for learning herbal correspondences; though I caution that magical uses and culinary or medicinal safety are two very different things, and to please be careful!
