It started innocently enough. I wanted brown trim to go with our green kitchen. Then we started planning burgundy walls for our bedroom and I immediately thought: deep espresso trim. Then came the dark brown sweater. The 90's brown lipstick. And naturally, the cocoa nail polish to go with the sweater and lipstick. By the time I made an entire cocoa-brown moodboard I had to ask myself: Why the heck am I so drawn to brown lately? Which, naturally, got me...]]></description><link>https://www.theresourcefulwitch.com/post/brown-deserves-more-love-in-color-magick</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6ac69a5b5b53394eb6ae92f8</guid><pubDate>Wed, 07 Oct 2026 19:30:04 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ffa8e4_5165f9444f764923b157873cca9dedf6~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Shelby</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[You Don’t Need Expensive Witchcraft Supplies to Practice Magick]]></title><description><![CDATA[There is absolutely nothing wrong with buying beautiful witchcraft supplies.
