I agree that found objects are best. I like to return them to where I found them after use. My favorite witchy thing, though, is semi-found, semi-permanent. It's a wand I made many years ago from a branch of a cherry tree whose life I saved from a homeowner's coop that was going to cut it down for no good reason. We had it professionally pruned instead. I'll have to post a pic of it someday, if I can find my camera....
