Hi, I'm Jane Winterbourne of The Hag under the Hill spirit Dolls and I work from Bucknell, a beautiful village in the magical Shropshire hills UK. I am a Shaman/ Witch practicing the Old Ways for almost 40 years now.
I am very passionate about my spirit doll creations, which I craft using local tree wood gathered at auspicious moon phases. I have worked with trees and their Dryads for over 40 years and I honour them in all my work and meditations. I pair the donated wood with herbs, flowers, leaves and berries I harvest in season and dry to use in my dolls medicine bundle which I place in the womb area of my dolls along with a small crystal to enhance and compliment my intent.
Once upon a time, most of our homes where made from specific tree woods, our furniture and even our cutlery, bowls and cups so we lived closely with tree essences and Dryad magic, touching these items every day and making a connection with their essence. but now we live so separate from the natural world and the spirits of the land so I hope to help renew that connection through my spirit dolls by bringing the magic of trees into our homes once more.
So what is a spirit doll? A spirit doll can have many meanings in many different cultures and they have been used in spiritual practice and rituals since ancient times. The Hag under the Hill spirit dolls are created as meditation focus tools, healing helpers, personal development aids, divination, protection, intention setting or as companions on your spiritual path. The spirit dolls you see here are lovingly made and will soon find their people and I also love to make custom spirit dolls to customer specification.
When I'm not making my beautiful dolls I love shamanic drumming, singing and dancing, getting lost in the woods, attending spiritual events selling my spirit dolls and giving talks about my spirit dolls. This year I am embarking on a shamanic womb healing apprenticeship to add to my existing magical knowledge so watch this space for where that takes me.
I hope you enjoy viewing my dolls and buying if one resonates with you.
Please don't hesitate to ask any questions about any of the dolls as I'll happily provide more information if required.
