You'll have to excuse me if thus is under the wrong forum topic.
Anyway way I'll start off by saying yes I'm fairly new to Wicca and I'm starting to just get my feet wet in it. I've read of boxes to keep talismans and stones in, to keep them charged. So be prepare I have quite a few questions. My questions are:

1. What are these called? (Does it have a certain name other than just "Charging boxes".)
2. What must they be made of? (Wood, steal, iron, etc.)
3. How would I do this on my own?
4. How long will it continue to charge my items? Will it ever have to be "Recharged" itself?
5. How many items can it hold and effect at one time?
6. Should you cleanse the container before hand?
7. Does it have to be a box? Can it be something like a jar?
8. Are "Supportive Items" important to have with a charging box?
