Assistant Accessories

One of my least favorite things about magic is how few of resources and products there are for assistants versus magicians. Today we'll just focus on the products though.

I mean I get it, there's technically "more" magicians, even though some magicians literally have 6 assistants. And most magicians actually stay in magic longer, while sometimes assistants are just a fill in girl for a show and they don't do it again but there's a lot of us who are in this for the long haul. And we deserve cool things too!

Recently through a modeling gig I acquired this adorable hat from LD Bags & Gifts that I had personalized to say Box Jumper and it got me thinking we need a LOT more assistant accessories!

Invisible Threads has two cute things, their "Saw Girl Hoodie" which I've seen different variations of over the years, but this seems to be the only one still around and I love it, I just wish there were different color options. Red doesn't always look great with red hair unfortunately. And then they have "Magician's Assistant in Trunk" car window sign which I think is hysterical and we will definitely be getting one. Yes I know I know sometimes they have those pink female magician shirts but honestly it's not the same. I want assistant things.

Artwork is always an easy route to go whenever you have a unique thing you're obsessed with and assistanting is no different. There's some cute paintings, cartoons, etc to find out there. My favorite possession is still my doll from Robyn Fabsits. She did a trio of assistants for a one time collection she put out, I wish I'd had the money for all three of them at the time, but I did atleast get the redhead!


Daytona Magic actually has some beautiful wood pieces that feature assistants. We were lucky enough to get the floating lady as a wedding gift but I'd love to collect them all someday!

One super fun assistant thing I haven't gotten yet is the adorable knife sharpener that pretty much every magician I know owns. It's called Sharp Act and is put out by Fred and Friends. Thus far I've only been able to really find it on Amazon and since it's Prime Day their website is pretty much broke so I guess I'll buy it another day. But so cute!


So far those are my favorite assistant products I've found, I hope there are more out there but...

Leave a comment, send me link, what are your favorite assistant products? 

I'd love to compile a list of all the cool assistant accessories out there!

Looking forward to hearing from you guys to find new things to spend my money on!
