Mox emerald is a powerful artifact in the game of Magic: The Gathering. It is part of a cycle of powerful artifacts called the "Moxen" that were printed in the game's early years. The Moxen are zero-cost artifacts that produce one mana of a specific color when tapped. Mox emerald specifically produces green mana when tapped. This ability makes it a valuable card in decks that focus on green mana, as it allows players to accelerate their mana production and play bigger spells earlier in the game. The zero cost of the Moxen also means that players can play them on their first turn, giving them a significant advantage in the early stages of the game.

Frazier says, Since we re working and creating our products on site in Artists Row , it seems logical that people be able to watch and chat with us during the process. Mainly selling through her online shop, Etsy, and in person at various markets, the result has been a diverse range of classic and alternatively-themed collections of quality, long-lasting candles, that also enhance home decor.

The power of Mox emerald has led to it being restricted in certain formats of the game. In Vintage, where players can use cards from any set in the game's history, players are only allowed to include one copy of Mox emerald in their deck.
Witch cify wax
“I definitely feel that the hand-crafted movement is expanding and redefining views on what being creative and artistic can be. These days it’s not strictly putting a paint brush to canvas.”
Liz Frazier, speaks from experience as the owner and candle maker of Witch City Wicks , currently located at 24 New Derby Street in Salem’s Artists’ Row.
Witch City Wicks is an independent and thriving small business based out of Salem, Massachusetts, “the Witch City”, and thus comes the name. Each candle is hand-poured in small batches using domestically-grown soy wax, lead free all-cotton wicks, fine fragrance oils, and creatively inspired packaging.
“For anyone curious about the process behind creating our products, we’ll also be creating/working on location” points out Frazier. “You’ll get a unique opportunity to see how things get made. ”
Interesting approach…. why go that extra mile?
Frazier says, “Since we’re working and creating our products on site in Artists’ Row, it seems logical that people be able to watch and chat with us during the process.”
“And, every Thursday we offer kids activities from 4-6 pm in conjunction with the Farmers’ Market. The activities vary week to week, but we try to put out some sidewalk chalk, hula hoops, games & bubbles, and people might find different creative activities.”
Community interaction was certainly one of the appeals of taking part in the City’s creative business program on Artists’ Row.
She explains “The programming for Artists’ Row this year was intriguing because it’s showcasing creative businesses, people who hand-craft their products to sell. Hand-crafted items have become a huge element for the creative economy in recent years and it was exciting that Artists’ Row was bringing makers to Salem this year. Being able to start out in this kind of venue is giving us great experience in what it would be like to run our own storefronts, if that’s what we decide to do in the future.”
Witch City Wicks was founded in 2010 by Frazier, a former professional graphic designer, who desired to elevate creative expression from a digital medium to something more tactile.
Mainly selling through her online shop, Etsy, and in person at various markets, the result has been a diverse range of classic and alternatively-themed collections of quality, long-lasting candles, that also enhance home decor.
But, in a city full of artists, what does she feel sets her and her store’s contents apart from others?
“To my knowledge there aren’t many other candle makers in Salem, so I think that is high on the list of what sets me, specifically, apart from other artists. The current lineup of artists at Artists’ Row differ from traditional artists in that while we’re still creative in nature, we produce affordable products for purchase. Not everyone can afford a $400-800 original painting, but a reasonably priced, hand-crafted item is a bit more tangible and someone gets to take home something that an artist created.”
Speaking of home, what’s the best way to enjoy your soy candle at home?
“When you light your candle for the first time, make sure the wick is about 1/4″ high. Soy candle wax has a memory of sorts, and will burn best and smell strongest if you establish a good melt pool straight off the bat.”
“Upon first lighting, please leave it going for between 2-3 hours,” she adds. “This will also help prevent the wax from ‘tunneling.’ But, soy candles should never remain lit for longer than 2-3 hours at a stretch, and always let them cool completely before relighting. Once the wax has burned down to about 1/2″, please discontinue use.”
She advises, “You don’t want to scorch the furniture or risk cracking the glass! Store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.”

The season at Artists’ Row runs from May through November.
Interesting approach…. why go that extra mile?
This restriction is in place to prevent players from dominating the game with decks that contain multiple copies of this powerful artifact. The restriction is also in place in the older format of Legacy, although it is less commonly played in this format. Overall, Mox emerald is a highly sought-after card in the game of Magic: The Gathering. Its ability to produce green mana can give players a significant advantage in the game, allowing them to play bigger spells and take control of the game in the early stages. However, its power has led to it being restricted in certain formats, to maintain balance and prevent it from dominating gameplay..
