The High Priestess Tarot Mirror
Tarot Mirrors
Unique
Tarot mirrors of Major Arcana imagery that resonate.
How meaningful and meditative to see our own reflection as we contemplate the
metaphors, symbols and archetypes that inspire favorite Tarot card themes such
as Strength, Hermit, Lovers, Moon, High Priestess, Empress… These are handmade
collages created on wooden mirrors. Favorite Tarot cards and art from various
mediums intertwine and reflect the card’s meanings. A good affirmation tool for
when you want to see yourself reflected in the cards...and a lovely
wall hanging. Each mirror signed on the back and a one of a kind creation.
Mirror size: 10 x 10 inch frame plus the 4 x 4 mirror in the center.

bookcase with a selection of popular Tarot books & decks, along with a crystal ball & teacup.
The side walls are covered with Ozvaldo Menegazzi's 'I Gatti Buffi' Cat Tarot wall paper and the back wall has purple
& white striped wallpaper. There is a Fool card and two World cards from different decks framed and hung as
well as my Lover's Tarot mirror, a Goddess, sculpture and small shelf with more
esoteric knickknacks. The wooden counter has bowls and jars of beads, shells and other trinkets, Tarot decks, a phone and a book

3D Tarot Art Boxes
Unique
Tarot art boxes with different looks and sizes. Newer
Hero's Journey deck sets
have a larger version of this style of handcrafted box featuring 3
cards from that deck. Each art box, no matter the size, has a smaller art work
fastened on top, (collaged on thick cardstock to give more dimension). The
inside top of the box also has artwork which has been collaged onto thick
cardstock. There is a 3rd artwork on the bottom inside of the box (one box in
the image below is open to reveal an Empress card on the inner lid and the Lucky
Pack World card on the inside bottom of box). The top and bottom is larger than the center
section, giving added distinction. And the bottom of box has 4 polished glass slippers.
The size of each art box shown on this page: 3 1/2" long x 2 1/2" wide and 1 1/4" deep.
