Your familiar making biscuits on the box of altar dressings is the best thing ever! Cat biscuits of approval. He's so excited about the season he got the zoomies!
I really like the curls! Thank you for sharing your altar dressing with us. You make it seem like we are right there with you as welcomed guests. George is beyond adorable!🧡🍂🐈⬛🎃🍁
Hello Alison…oh my gosh I love your hair…it always looks good but I really like your new style..beautiful! Your alters are amazing. Thanks for sharing❤I’m still working on mine..I have several. I have witch dolls that stay out all year. I just love them so much and have to see them every day! Take care and looking forward to your next video.
Ooh, love the hair 🤩 OMG George!!! He clearly wanted the spooky decor out as much as you did 😂 Thanks for sharing - especially about your dad. That's a lovely photo of him and your mum How have your siblings reacted to you being a witch? Happy Sppoky Season 🍂🍁🍄
Thank you so much! I only really have a relationship with two of my siblings. They are all a lot older than me and our paths don't really cross. I don't think they give a toot to be honest! 🤣 xx
Hi, I love watching you change your alters they always look amazing ❤ this is the very first time I've commented on your videos and your hair looks beautiful ❤ xx
I spent my evening here in Kentucky US watching you decorate. Thanks for sharing your world with me. The picture of your Father on your altar has made peace. Very beautiful. Blessed Samhain.
Been watching you all day while sitting writing ✍️. You have renewed my love of the Pagan Path for that I thank you so much. I lean towards the Druid path. I love following your Journey.
Hello Alison, your hair is wonderful. This video was really pleasant to watch. Your alters do look beautiful in the dark. I loved your little cameo photo too tucked into the corner 😃😃 Bless you my dear 😊
My pickiness with scents is what led to me to research how to make my own perfumes, so I understand making something that works with your specific needs. And thank you for mentioning burning things can be bad for pets! The more people say it the more awareness is spread and the happier pets we’ll all have. I hope the Samhain season bring joy and happiness for y’all! 💕💕💕
I absolutely love how George was playing around. So cute! The addition of the rosemary and fresh leaves was a great idea. I will be borrowing that! I currently don't honor ancestors or the dead, mostly because I don't have any that I had a relationship with. However, I love how you spoke of 'all who came before', I think I'll check into that. You are right, ancestors are more than just the ones we've known.
He's absolutely nuts!! Whenever I am doing anything even remotely Witchy he just has to stick his little furry snoot in. I completely understand about not honouring ancestors - it's very personal and not as simple as it sounds. One of the reasons I always visit a local cemetery or two during this period is to pay my respects to the people who shaped the town where I was born and where I live. There is so much to discover. Have a wonderful October xx
What a beautiful altar Alison thanks for sharing such a personal sacred space I can't wait to do mine, I have exactly the same ancestor tree😊 I bring out photos of family and pets I've lost, I also bake a traditional Irish barmbreac at samhain now in memory of my dad as he loved it so that is lovely for cakes and ale. George was so excited 🐾🐾 bless him Samhain zoomies🦇🦇 and your hair looked gorgeous🎃🍂🍁
Oh this sounds so wonderful - I have always wanted to try barnbreac! What a lovely way to honour your Dad. Yes George had a massive dose of the Zoomies, he was at it all day! xx
When you started by saying you understand that not everyone wants to or can honour ancestors, I think my heart stopped beating. I was orphaned in infancy, and what I DO know about my dead relatives doesn't make me want to think about them 😂 I think it's the first time I've ever heard anyone bring this subject up, and I'm grateful for it. In regards to my own practice, I used to 'mourn' the family I deserved, but now I treat it like a new year's party 🎉
Lovely seeing your Samhain altar and how you put it together. It looks beautiful and very meaningful with the ancestor elements. George is super cute! I loved your spooky ghost cushion in the video before 😊 I was in Tesco and they had a similar one - I got the very last one on the shelf! It's sitting next to my fluffy green pumpkin on my bed. I read a piece a few months ago that said something like 70% of adults have cuddly toys in their beds. I'm not sure it's quite that high... but a lot of us seem to get comfort from them! 👻😊
I’m so glad you got a ghost cushion! If it’s the one I think it is, it’s so cute! Thank you so much for your kind words about my altar and I’m glad you enjoyed it xx
How beautiful Sister, thank you for sharing this precious altar. Rosemary is a lovely touch, think I will do the same from my garden.Samhain Blessings to you & yours✨️🧡
Thank you for this lovely video Alison, I really enjoyed watching it. All of your decorating is really lovely, cozy and special. Thanks for sharing, love your hair too! Sara xx
I love your hair. Thanks for sharing your altar with us. I’m trying to find some autumn/ Halloween decorative pieces for my home. You’ve given me a few ideas. Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh you weren't kidding about George 😂 he was living his best life! Your altars and home look fabulous so festive! I'm going to do mine next weekend but little things have been creeping in for weeks! I've never been to sheffield general cemetery you know, I'll have to have a trip one day but I'm looking forward to your tour vid 😊 your hair is lovely wavy and I love your sweater ❤❤
Hi Alison! I'm new here and have really enjoyed watching your last couple of videos. It gives me chills how many parallels our lives have and I'm happy to have found your channel. I hope you have a lovely Samhain.
Your hair kooks really fab, Allison! I do love a bit of wiggle in a well cut bob!! Your house looks gorgeous i have to say. Your Alters are very beautiful. We have what i think of, as a "Season area" in the dining room. I have made a few clay toadstools, and a little home made broomstick made from one of our cats Cat-Nip sticks and some string. I've hung up (dried in the oven) orange, apple, lemon n lime slices tied with cinnamon sticks hanging from shelves (I do like doing arts n crafts!) and daughter n i painted a couple of Halloween pictures so its all very Autumny! Your place is much Better and we only decorate one room! Thanks for sharing your time and decorations with us, Allison, it's all completely Lovely at your place! Love, Me in Devon l x 🍰🌻
Ahh thank you so much! I love the sound of your decorations - especially all the beautiful fruits and spices, I bet they smell beautiful. Thank you for being here xx
Hi love your altar! I have my Samhain altar under my TV, I have just got some orange light up maple leaves they look really cheery now that it's getting darker, I have loads of things on it Skull, ornamental apples ,sunflowers toad stools, fairy, all things autumnal! I have a separate ancestors altar with photos of past ancestors a cactus plant a candle which I light every morning,other various ornaments, and Hecate looking down upon it! Many Samhain blessings to you ❤
Your hair looks really lovely, all curly, and so does your altar, it really means something to you and that is why it is special, not just because it looks beautiful,. George is really funny, and regardless of what happened with your Dad, he is still your Dad. 👻🙂👻
Hi Alison, we have a family gathering on Samhain with lots of food including pumpkin soup and home made bread. We then have a little fire in the back garden (fire pit). I adopted a little French Bulldog, so it's going to be very different this time. My alter, for the time being, is my bookshelf. This is only until I get my new sideboard and drawers, but needs must lol, especially a curious pooch in the house. Wishing you a very blessed Samhain . Blessed be xx
Well this all sounds wonderful to me! And the firepit is an absolute Samhain essential! I have Ritual Group on the Saturday before Samhain. I'm leading our ritual this year so I am busy preparing that. I have the week of Samhain off (I always have that week off) and Mark and I are off to do a few nice things together. On the Tuesday evening my best friends are joining us for Samhain Dinner (another tradition). On Samhain itself we always go out to lunch and then it's a crazy busy evening with doorstep callers! After they've all gone home I turn off all the lights and hold my own ritual to honour my ancestors. I look forward to all of it! xx
I have been saving this video for a quiet moment so I could take it all in without any distractions. You have such a lovely calming energy and it was such a treat to decorate your altars with you. Had to chuckle at handsome George, he was more excited than you to get the spook box out 😂. Thank you for another wonderful video ❤ your hair looks amazing btw!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. Yes George was very excited, he was hyper all day! Thank you so much for watching and it always lovely to hear from you ♥️
Your alter is beautiful Alison, I just love all the little lights behind everything 😍.. I love redressing my alter.. such a beautiful time of year 🍂🍁 I agree Sainsbury's had some gorgeous bits this year..
Hello Alison I loved seeing how you put everything together for your altars, it all looks so lovely and cosy. George definitely wanted to be on camera didn't he, he was so funny and reminded me of my own cat Molly who also likes to kick at the rug!! Thank you for sharing all your thoughts and ideas, it means so much and is always so helpful 🍄
Thank you for acknowledging those who struggle with this season! I love all the witchy and ghosties! I’m a big horror spooky fan and as a witch myself obviously this time of year is so pleasing to the eye! But I don’t like the cold and all the being indoors constantly! I find it a little depressing ( I already suffer with depression this season doesn’t help for me ) and then I don’t have any family due to toxic abuse so I struggle with the whole honouring ancestors etc! I do dress my house up a little bit though for spooky season ❤ loved your video found it fun to watch
I’m so sorry you’ve had such a dreadful time and I sincerely hope that you have found peace. I hope that you have a season full of warmth, comfort, reassurance and of course lovely spookiness! Please look after yourself. Thank you so much for being here xx
Love George! 😂 Love the warm but spooky vibes. Again a source of inspiration for me. Went to visit a Victorian cemetery in Victoria last week. (That’s about as old as we get here in BC 😂) walked in and the first headstone I walked up to had my last name, then walking out, the last headstone was my ancestors name. Neither a relation of mine. Very spooky in a good way! ❤👻 love the synchronicities! Can’t wait for your next video!
He is such a nosey floof!! Wow - that’s absolutely amazing, I love it when these things happen! It’s definitely the season for spooky goings-on. Thank you so much for watching - I am really looking forward to my cemetery visit too 🖤
Hi Alison. You decorated your home so beautifully for Samhain. I too feel some mixed feelings about putting a pic of my dad on my Samhain altar. We had a very difficult painful relationship. Since i started practising (only 3 years ago) i'm thinking that this year i'm ready to put his pic on it. Well i'll see how i feel about it when the altar is done because it's still in Mabon sabbath atm. Your little Georges is so cute. Blessed be. 🙏
Thank you, that's so kind. I understand how you're feeling, I definitely think you'll know what to do when the time is right. Sending you lots of love xx
Ab fab, thanks for sharing Alison. Your furry ancestors are gorgeous. Luv your style. I feel George wanted to steal your thunder LOL. I love him. Not began my altar yet but all my beloved images are my animals who have passed to rainbow bridge, only one human honoured. btw made a Samhain wreath, with all kindsa foliage, and fruit, and hand made flowers. I love it. have a wonderful Samhain blessed be x
I LOVE your hair and your altar. I think it's perfect! I noticed you and I have the same athame... lol! I currently have 5 altars in my spare room. I do have an ancestor altar, but it' also my healing altar. My recently departed brother's picture is on there. And I have a family altar, for those who are still alive, that I pray for every day. I really enjoyed this video. I always enjoy all your videos. Thank you so much for sharing ❤ 🎃🍁
Oh I am so very sorry to hear about your brother. I love the sound of your healing altar - what a beautiful idea. I hope the Samhain season brings you comfort and peace xx
Such lovely altars and so nice to see what you choose to put on them and why. I am the same...mine are up now, but will be added to as the month goes. It is always fun to see how it layers according to nature, workings and such! Blessed October and Samhain to you! Such a fun month!
Exactly this!! I can't wait to add my leaves and other treasures! And on Samhain itself I will set a place on my altar for any visiting spirits. Have a wonderful October, enjoy every moment xx

@@sylviafigueroa2268 it’s absolutely no problem and no need to apologise. I’m getting so many emails at the moment - there were 104 waiting for me when I got up this morning and my work and family stuff is just getting lost among it all and adding to my sense of overwhelm. But you’re more than welcome to keep in touch via the other way I’ve mentioned 😉 And PS your pictures are beautiful x
I'm so sorry to hear you're struggling. Give yourself time and don't try to force anything. Everything can wait. Your health and wellbeing come before anything else. Please try to talk to your doctor about how you're feeling. I know it's hard when you are feeling anxious. But getting it out there is a start xxx
I enjoyed the kitty antics very much! Also your lovely and mindful decorations.
He is nuts and we love him so much. Thank you for your kind words xx

Lovely video, your hair looks great. I had to laugh when George had “bats” which is what we used to say when our cats had a mad five minutes😂
He's an absolute fruit loop - I love 'Bats!' xxx
Such lovely spaces! George is adorable and hilarious. Love this video. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much. George is absolutely bonkers 🤣

Not began my altar yet but all my beloved images are my animals who have passed to rainbow bridge, only one human honoured. btw made a Samhain wreath, with all kindsa foliage, and fruit, and hand made flowers. I love it. have a wonderful Samhain blessed be x
Your wreath sounds absolutely beautiful! What a special creation. And I think it's wonderful to honour our beloved furries at this special time xx
@@fifty-somethingwitch2406 Aww thank you, yes for sure, have a wonderful day blessed be xx
I LOVE your hair and your altar. I think it's perfect! I noticed you and I have the same athame... lol! I currently have 5 altars in my spare room. I do have an ancestor altar, but it' also my healing altar. My recently departed brother's picture is on there. And I have a family altar, for those who are still alive, that I pray for every day. I really enjoyed this video. I always enjoy all your videos. Thank you so much for sharing ❤ 🎃🍁
Oh I am so very sorry to hear about your brother. I love the sound of your healing altar - what a beautiful idea. I hope the Samhain season brings you comfort and peace xx
Such lovely altars and so nice to see what you choose to put on them and why. I am the same...mine are up now, but will be added to as the month goes. It is always fun to see how it layers according to nature, workings and such! Blessed October and Samhain to you! Such a fun month!
Exactly this!! I can't wait to add my leaves and other treasures! And on Samhain itself I will set a place on my altar for any visiting spirits. Have a wonderful October, enjoy every moment xx

Thank you so much lovely lady. Yes of course I'd love to see your pictures! I'll send you my email address via Etsy 🖤
@fifty-somethingwitch2406 , this is why i sent the pctures through the email. Sorry
@@sylviafigueroa2268 it’s absolutely no problem and no need to apologise. I’m getting so many emails at the moment - there were 104 waiting for me when I got up this morning and my work and family stuff is just getting lost among it all and adding to my sense of overwhelm. But you’re more than welcome to keep in touch via the other way I’ve mentioned 😉
And PS your pictures are beautiful x
@fifty-somethingwitch2406 no problem, take a few to rest. blessed be
Hi thank you for this very inspiring. Unfortunately I have lost my way due to depression and anxiety. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks ❤
I'm so sorry to hear you're struggling. Give yourself time and don't try to force anything. Everything can wait. Your health and wellbeing come before anything else. Please try to talk to your doctor about how you're feeling. I know it's hard when you are feeling anxious. But getting it out there is a start xxx
That family tree stand is BEAUTIFUL, where did you get it? I wanna get one myself.
Thank you so much! I found it on ebay! xx
Where did yr lovely duvet cover come from please? 😊
Hello! It came from Asda but it’s at least ten years old. They still sell similar ones seasonally though xx
@@fifty-somethingwitch2406 Thankyou!☺️
