You'd be better served by asking on the Witchery forum. It sounds like you have some serious conflicts, especially since you needed to "temporarily" install several other mods to resolve another conflict. I'm sure someone on their forum would know which mod isn't playing nice with Witchery. BTW, when you remove your "temporary" mods, you may actually create some other issues with your game. Forge has gotten really good at dealing with removed items but it isn't perfect.
I use Witchery myself w/o any problems but I don't use any of the others.
EDIT: Don't use gamepedia guides! I just looked at that and your problem is that guide. It's for a really old version of Witchery. The crafting recipes have changed a LOT since then. Always stick with the mod's forum for the most up-to-date information
I cannot craft Witchery items using the standard crafting table, not even the Witches Oven, which is the first thing I need.
I have used FTB as my guide http://ftb.gamepedia.com/Getting_Started_(Witchery)
(In my "test" world which is on Creative - I couldn't see that there was a special crafting table for Witchery.)
I have these mods installed: can anyone help?
Forge 10.13.2.1291
Witchery 1.7.10.0.23.2
Thaumcraft 4.2.3.5
Ars Magica 2 1.4.0.008
Animation API 1.7.10.1.2.4 - which it said I needed for Ars Magica 2
Twilight Forest 2.3.4
Journey Map 5.0.1
I also temporarily installed
COFH Core 3.0.086
Thermal Foundation 4.2.3.5
Thermal Expansion 5.0.1

Thanks Sigyn.
Also I have requested this post be moved to Witchery Forum as you suggested.
Anyone got any ideas? Or suggestions of what I can try?
Did you install Not Enough Items? It provides crafting recipes.

No I don't have NEI, but the issue is resolved now so I'm up and running
I'm having the same problem, how did you fix yours?
