Ages ago and a little after the Great Depression there were stores called Notion departments. If you have a great grandmother or even an old grandmother they may remember these places. This was a store were you could go and buy thread, cloth, buttons and anything related to sewing.
Now just like today and in the age of reason people have all different beliefs. Some are into Wicca some are Christian and many others are all different things. Basically it was just like today but things were kept much, much quieter.
On a little known alley way in the deep in NYC the practice of the occult was in high practice. The things we don't know today were not forgotten to one lost family. This family worked around the clock for those like them, those into the paranormal and the occult. Their last name was Smith. Yes it is a common name but what they did was anything but.
Inside the shop which seemed to appear only at the beginning of dusk you could find all sorts of things,related to sewing. While many people found their way in some found exactly what they were looking for, those in the know. A special code word was used to open up the back room which was filled with flying silver fish. At least that is how people described the spirits that resided there. Opening the door was like walking into a room where silver glitter was thrown into the air. That is how many spirits filled that room. The other thing that filled that room was tons and tons of buttons. Each one was designed for beauty, creativity and supreme power. They were also created so no one would notice them other then to say how original. They were not jewelry that could be stolen and could be worn anywhere, on a coat, on the inside of a jacket or just carried around.
Here you will find many of the ones my grandmother collected. Below you will find the description and what they do.
This piece holds a German witch named Ainsley. She was slaughtered during the Wurzburg witch trials, despite the fact that she never used her magic for to do ill-will toward anybody. The Germans, for some reason or another were just caught up in a rage where they killed 157 in Wurzburg where Ainsley lived. Over 900 were killed in the bishopric. Unfortunately Ainsley was one of those who died. The fortunate part of the story is that Ainsley lived on through her immortal soul. She was conjured into this piece , which clearly shows a German witch on on it. With this piece you gain all of Ainsley's powers, including the ability shape-shift into any familial you want to take the form of, love spells, wealth spells, longevity spells, and many, many more. For me to list all the spells she knows how to cast would take forever. Just know that if you ask her to cast you a spell, the chances are she will most likely be able to.
