 Come craft your own magical broom from scratch!

Wheel of Fate is joining Venue 13 for a hands-on, creative, and enchanting experience. Whether you’re a curious crafter or a lover of the occult arts, this one-hour workshop will walk you through the process of building your own custom broom—from handle to final flourish.

How it Works:

  1. Choose your handle: Hazel or chestnut, available in Small, Medium, or Large sizes.
  2. Pick your broomcorn: Natural fibres ready for binding.
  3. Decorate your broom: Choose flowers, charms, and extra embellishments to make it uniquely yours.
  4. Craft with guidance: Our experienced instructors will walk you through each step of the process at our dedicated broom-making station.

Optional add-ons include crystals, pendants, charms, coloured bundles, leather wraps, and more. Available on the day for an additional fee.

What You’ll Leave With:

Your very own handmade broom, a keepsake of your time in Edinburgh and a magical tool imbued with your own energy.

Approximate broom sizes:

  • Small: 54cm / 22″
  • Medium: 78cm / 31″
  • Large: 130cm / 52″

Please ensure your broom will fit in your luggage if you’re traveling!
