First thing, there is already a mod doing the same, turning Wands into craftables and you can find it here:
Wandmaker Career by Ilkavelle
I really like the idea of crafting wands and brooms, problem I have with that mod? The crafting is tied to a career, and I don't want custom careers. I just wanted to craft wands, have a more in-deep crafting process, yes, a career? Nope. So I decided to do a version I could be satisfied with. This mod just allows you to craft wands at the Woodworking table, for witches and vampire witches.
Witches have to use motes to infuse the table with Magic:
Vampire Witches and Traditional Witches can just craft them.
The wands are unlocked with witch or vampire rank and handiness skill (no skill, first rank you can only craft the cheapest one, progressing with skill and rank unlocks the others)
Wands have ingredients but they're not required. If you have the ingredient the crafting is free. Different swatches of the same wand use different crystals depending on the colour of the wand.
If you have Brazenlotus Crafting Ingredients some wands use firewood logs as ingredient, otherwise it's only metals and crystals.
Crafted wands can be sold in retail and don't always have the same value:
If you have the frugal perk, ingredients can be saved.
BROOMS:
Level 2 handiness + Rank > 1 will unlock the interaction to craft brooms.
All brooms are craftable, ingredients not required as above, retail value changes as above.
Witches need two motes.
TOMES:
You can write Magic tomes and Potion's recipes tomes with the PC.
You can either write a generic Grimoire, or, if you have the spell/recipe unlocked and writing skills, a specific spellbook:
Generic Grimoires can be renamed, specific spellbooks will always have the standard name even if the game asks you to name them (just close the window, I couldn't find a way to make it disappear) but they'll actually teach the spell (generic grimoires only rise XPs).
Master Magic mages can only write spellbooks in their school, but they're the only ones (the sages can too) who can write the tome for the ultimate spell in that school.
Vampire Witches can write tomes even if they cannot use them.
The option works off the grid with Magic:
You can find a mod to unlock collecting more motes HERE
This mod uses Maxis strings so it should be already translated for the most part.

UPDATES:
28/03
Added tomes.
Added enchanting skill:
Quality of the crafted object will now depend on this skill. You'll unlock it on competition of your first magical object. The skill goes up faster in the Realm (it always increases at the end of the crafting, not during the crafting)
Guess what I forgot? Added strings for the enchanting skill in all the other languages that are not Béarla
