My friends and I went to the Witchery for a broom making class for my friend's bachelorette party and it was such a fun experience! We did a broom making class and we all had such a fun time, and the instructor was lovely! read more

I visited The Witchery Spell Book Class this past weekend with my friends, and it was such a nice break from the hustle and bustle of the busy streets of Salem! I really appreciated that the class felt quiet and private -- it was great to have that calm space to create without a big crowd around. The project itself was a lot of fun, and I loved the creative atmosphere. My only small suggestion would be to mention ahead of time that certain leather options can't be stamped -- I ended up using paint pens instead, which still worked out fine! Overall, it was a unique and memorable experience -- especially when I had the whole class recite a spell over their books for good luck before we left. Definitely a magical memory to take home! read more

We had the best time in our bookbinding class! Our teacher was amazing. It was definitely the highlight of our trip to Salem!

My husband surprised me with a broom making class for my birthday which is on Halloween. The class was mostly full but had a few extra seats available so the room wasn't too crowded. We were told my husband couldn't stay to watch even though there were chairs open and he would be out of the way like it's some secret. He wandered about and I selected the items to build my broom. I think the flow could be improved for how people select their various charms, flowers, straw, etc. I also really would have appreciated being able to mix my colored straw in with the yellow straw, but with the way the steps are laid out I didn't have that option. The instructor was nice, albeit I felt like he spoke to us as if we were kindergarteners. It felt a bit juvenile and condescending at times, but he was VERY thorough and everyone accomplished making brooms effectively. I'm really happy with how mine turned out, but I don't think they look as high end as the price suggests. It's not something I would do again, but it was a fun thing to do on my birthday. read more

We attended one of their crafting classes (book binding). There was some construction going on in the area and most of the class was a few minutes later than expected checkin. She (I'm sorry - I missed her name) took a few minutes to call every party and get their ETA. We got started maybe 5-10 minutes late - but that happens. The instruction was given by Demi (I think?) and she was patient, and kind, and took her time going at a very easy pace, but certainly not too slow. In the end everyone left with a beautiful, hand-bound, leather-bound book. My husband and I wrapped up about 20 minutes early. We were not the first to finish, nor were we the last. The class had ample time to finish without feeling rushed or pushed. 10/10. Highly recommend. I can't wait to bring my daughter there. read more

Would absolutely recommend doing this! The team were so much fun, interactive and helpful throughout the entire experience!

This is a great place to bring visitors to Salem to pick up a broom making kit and instructions and bring home to do a great project with kids and/or friends. I have done this twice, once with family, once with friends and both times people loved it. I now have two beautiful brooms hanging in my kitchen. read more

I reserved a broom making class a few months in advance knowing how busy it would be near Halloween. The prices were a little high but a lot is included for making the broom. It was relatively easy to find and I thought the Instructor, Talman, was kind and informative. He was patient with all different skill levels and even shared fun stories and history about Salem separate from broom making. I purchased some separate addons for my broom which increased the price but this was worth it to me as how many times are you going to get to do something like this? This turned out to be my favorite part of my visit - hands on, educational, have something to take home to keep, what a great experience. read more

It was a very nice experience. A hands-on workshop that tests your patience and creativity. The individuals working there, at least the ones that I interacted with were decent- not overbearing, which is a good thing. They provided a large amount of options and detailed instructions. It's worth trying. read more

The whole experience was wonderful. The instructor was great. She was there to help and show us step by step the art of broom making. We never felt rushed. We were allowed time to complete our broom with ease, and to add any trinkets or flowers to our creation. There may be other shops in Salem to make brooms, but the Witchery was the best!! read more

My niece and went to the Witchery to make a broom. This was our first visit to Salem and the experience of broom making is an absolute must do!!!! Tomin was our instructor and he was absolutely amazing. I am not a crafty person so was worried that I wouldn't be able to do this, but with his amazing instructions I made a beautiful broom that I will cherish forever! This is something anyone can do! This experience added so much to our trip. Such helpful friendly people...again a MUST DO if you go to Salem! read more

If you are even considering making a broom while in Salem book your spot now. This was by far the best experience of our trip. The staff was so friendly and ready to help. The person leading the group was very informative and gave clear directions. I note that broom making takes a bit of muscle and hand dexterity so keep that in mind. But the staff will help if needed!! read more

My SIL and I had the best time making brooms. The instructors did a great job and they had no issues helping us make the brooms.

This class was amazing! The two gentlemen were a vibe and a pleasure to be around! They made aure to teach us in a fun way that had the entire class laughing and smiling! We will definitely be coming back and even trying their other classes! read more

Fantastic workshop with great facilitators! Highly recommended. My son and I each made beautiful brooms.

We had an awesome time in their broom making class. It was an hour long which was just the right amount of time. We didn't feel rushed. They told us that the UPS store nearby has special boxes so you can ship them home. We decided to ship ours so they didn't get crushed in our luggage. Definitely worth the visit, it was fun and we have a unique souvenir. read more

Ordered take out hibachi, excellent food and nice portions, defiantly worth a stop and would go again.

I booked a broom making session for a party of 12 on a recent trip to Salem and it did not disappoint. The staff was helpful, kind, and informative. Sean lead our session and he was great. His instructions were clear and he was patient as everyone took their time following the steps and personalizing their brooms. This is a great activity to do with a group. Everyone in our party had a blast! read more

The book binding class was one of the most fun experiences I have had in Salem. Everyone was kind and encouraging and welcoming. There was a wide variety of lovely materials to make just the book you want to make. Of course I ended up wanting to make about 10 books.... And I may just have to go back to make a broom. Highly recommended! read more

My friend Erin told me about this place and I made a point to go here on my trip to Salem this past summer. If you find yourself in Salem be sure to stop in because you can MAKE YOUR OWN BROOM! How could I pass it up?! Not only can you make a broom (in various sizes, btw), you can also make a leather bound journal. There's lots to choose from for both journals and broom design. The staff is super cool and friendly. The classes are small and non intimidating. The woman who taught my class also let me buy a red love themed broom that hung in the window and I thank her for that. My brooms are well loved and cared for. read more

I am not surprised to see all 5 star reviews here because everyone was super nice and easy going. My wife and I made our little brooms in the class and the teacher was easy going and gave us folklore and real history about what the broom meant, might not have meant and how modern lore was formed, all fun stuff and at the end we got two cool decorative brooms for the house :) read more

Broom making seemed like such a fun, cute craft - and it really was! Jude was an amazing instructor - well spoken, patient, kind, encouraging. The broom I made turned out so cute. Also booked the book binding class a day later, was very happy to see Jude again! The book binding seemed like it would be a bit intimidating, but with Jude as an instructor, it was done was ease. I highly suggest booking at least one of these classes, it's a lovely souvenir from beautiful Salem. read more

TLDR: Don't trust that your paid deposit + confirmation actually mean that your workshop will take place - have backup plans in pocket. Nice shop, but ***cannot*** recommend their workshops. We've visited in November in past years as walk-ins and each time their broom making & book binding sessions were booked - which is understandable. This time , we planned ahead better and booked (and gave a $50 deposit) for their book-binding session on-line (and received confirmation thereof) well beforehand. This was to be *** the highlight of my teens birthday visit to Salem***. Unfortunately, late on Thanksgiving evening, mere hours before our session at 10:30 the next morning, The Witchery advised us that our session was cancelled. (But of course, had WE cancelled less than 24 hours before, we would've lost our $50 deposit - which makes this extra aggravating). Allegedly, the shop didn't have enough participants. Yet when we visited the shop (just to shop) at the same time as our previous session time, there was just one person with a guest working on a broom in the workshop area. And it's not like that participant was waiting for others to show - they were clearly in the middle of crafting their broom, and as the website states, if you're late for your workshop, "we cannot start over for you." So much for "not enough participants" for a session. And, had we known earlier in the week, we could've made alternate arrangements to try to find/ book a class elsewhere for this special birthday treat for our kid. But with only 14 hours notice on Thanksgiving weekend, that was neigh impossible. They did offer us the option to do a take-home kit, but the whole point is to personalize the leather covers, etching them, using stencils, embossing, knives, binding, feathers, herbs, charms, and various add-ons that the store provides, along with the guidance of the "instructor". None of which is applicable with a take-home kit. I mean, I could go to Hobby Lobby and buy the basic supplies from their kit on my own! As their website promotes, "Our workshops are immersive crafting sessions!" - Which is markedly different than a take home kit. They did not charge me, but did advise it'd be 2-3 weeks until I see a refund of my deposit - which I shall be keeping a sharp eye our for. They did apologize, but this is just exceptionally unprofessional. Afterall, if I were a no-show, or cancelled less than 24 hours beforehand as they did, "There are no refunds for late cancellations [less than 24 hours], tardiness, or "no shows" ." Very disappointing - especially to see a one guest workshop taking place in front of our eyes. It's too bad. We spent around $300 on two other visits buying broom supplies and intended to spend another $150 or so on this book-binding workshop. read more

I had such an amazing experience at The Witchery! It was such an intimate setting and the instructors were able to give one on one attention to each person that needed it. I took the broom making course the day before Halloween and I was so excited to have my very own broom with me on Halloween day. read more

What a perfect little place this is. My mom and I made brooms there this afternoon and it was great!! They allow you to pick your own materials and add-ons and also explain everything in detail. There are so many ways to personalize your broom and make it just what you want. They also provide you with tidbits of the history of broom making and fun facts about the history of brooms and why they are associated with witches. We are in Salem of course! I would recommend 100%. read more

Three of my friends and I stopped in The Witchery on Sunday for a broom making class. Our instructor was easy to follow and we all went home with something unique and beautiful. There were so many different ways to customize your broom. I'm looking forward to hanging mine over my front door. Everyone we walked past on the way to our air bnb was asking us where we got them. Make sure you book ahead ahead. This is a must do when visiting Salem! read more
