In times past, forest witches gave one another acorns as gifts. This was a secret way of telling the other person that you were a forest witch. Acorns come from the oak and to the ancient Celts it was one of the most sacred of trees. Acorns are symbols of friendship, values, protection, and growth.

Agate is a type of quartz that belongs to the chalcedony family and comes in many different colors. This agate is mined in the Botswana area of Africa. The lava flows from millions of years ago caused the stones to form in layers of silica. This formation is what created the beautiful bands of colors.
