Make a Wand

Choose a branch, preferably one of the size depicted. the branch can be of any tree, but you should do some research to find the one that would suit you best. remember to give the tree an offering.

Begin to strip the bark. as you are doing this, pour some of your energy/ will into the branch and visualize the wand within.

Measure the length of the handle. The handle should be left uncarved, but you may do so if you desire.

Start wittling the rest of the wand to your desire, slowly start thinning the wand towards the tip.

Carve the runes. you may use nordic, archaic, any sort, but my preference is rianar alferion.

Implant the gem. Hollow a point and hold the gem to it. a simple application of will should be enough to ensure that it sticks and stays in place. If not, then use superglue or sealant of a sort, with your will poured into it.
