Witch windows are often found on the second story of farmhouses built in the 1800s. 🪟🧹✨They’re an interesting piece of architecture born from the folk belief that witches cannot fly on their broomsticks through a crooked window. They’re also known as coffin windows, as many believe they were added to farmhouses to make it easier to remove coffins from second-story bedrooms.
Both theories seem rather far-fetched, but they sparked something of a golden light in me. What did I think of when I heard the phrase “witch window”? I thought of an amber glow from the hearth. I thought of flowers and herbs hanging to dry and a beautiful garden reflected in the wavy glass panes. I thought of the smell of gingerbread coming from inside. For me, that is a true witch window, and what better way to share it than with a gingerbread cookie like the one here? - and excerpt from the Fall 2023 faeriemagazine issue where this recipe was featured! You can now find the recipe for these lovely gingerbread windows on their website or by ordering a back issue of this publication!
