ABOUT US
The Compendium is a gateway to worlds of wonder and imagination, where realms of fantasy come alive through the spellbinding artistry of creators, crafters, and, at times, even magical beings.
Join our enchanting workshops—craft your own Wand of Power, bind secrets within a Spellbook, brew ancient mysteries in our Potion-Making sessions, and so much more. Each experience is carefully designed to immerse you in a world of endless creativity, with rich materials and boundless inspiration to let your imagination soar.
Ready to add a touch of magic to your event? We offer our mystical workshops for fairs, conventions, and private gatherings, and bring along a coven of partners to make your event a truly unforgettable journey into the extraordinary.
OUR WORKSHOPS
Magic Wands
Step into the world of spellcraft and conjure your own one-of-a-kind magic wand. Using a curated selection of mystical materials—think shimmering threads, antique beads, and enchanted wood—you'll craft a wand that's as unique as the wizard who wields it. Whether your style leans elegant, eerie, or elemental, our table is filled with endless inspiration.
This workshop is perfect for both first-time crafters and seasoned magic-makers. Guided by the spirit of creativity (and our friendly crew), you'll walk away with a wand worthy of any wizarding school or secret coven. Let the magic choose you—or create it yourself.
Spellbooks
Uncover the secrets of ancient tomes by making your very own spellbook. From weathered covers and mystical symbols to parchment-like pages inside, your book will look like it's been passed down through generations of powerful magic users. Personalize it with miniature scrolls, sigils, and faux aging techniques for that authentic arcane feel.
Whether you’re building a prop for cosplay, creating a keepsake for your D&D character, or just love the look of an old magical grimoire, this workshop is a doorway into storytelling and craftsmanship. No spellbook is ever the same—what will yours reveal?
Magic Potions
Concoct your own mysterious potion in a decorative glass vial or flask of your choosing. With sparkling ingredients like enchanted liquids, shimmering powders, and tiny magical props, you’ll brew a bottle that looks like it belongs on the shelf of an alchemist or potion master.
Label it with spells, warnings, or curious names—and create a story behind it, if you dare. These potions may not have actual effects, but they’re full of charm, mystery, and magic.
Now only to find a simple soul to drink your potion!
Enchanted Dice-sets
For the tabletop adventurer, nothing says “prepared” like a handmade dice holder. In this workshop, you’ll create a one-of-a-kind container to store your precious polyhedrals. And guess what, you get a dice-set of your choosing!
Decorate with fantasy flourishes—think dragonscales, arcane symbols, and secret compartments.
Perfect for players, game masters, or collectors, this holder will be both practical and magical. Let your imagination roll the dice and see what kind of magical item you create.
Mystical Scribe Quills
Channel the elegance of old-world magic with your own handcrafted writing quill. Select from an array of feathers, embellishments, and fantasy-inspired accents to craft a pen that looks like it came from the desk of a royal scribe or high sorcerer.
Whether you're journaling your dreams, signing magical contracts, or adding flair to your cosplay, this quill will bring a touch of wonder to any page. A beautiful blend of form and function, created by your own hand.
Now go write that book!
Magical Pocketwatch
Craft a timeless relic with a magical twist. In our pocket watch workshop, you'll design and decorate a vintage-style timepiece that looks like it came straight out of a steampunk universe—or perhaps from the desk of a mysterious time-traveler. Choose from metallic gears, filigree, crystals, and celestial details to bring your vision to life.
These watches don’t just tell time—they tell stories. Whether it’s a family heirloom from another realm or a device for time-turning adventures, you’ll leave with an enchanted object that looks like it holds secrets.
