I get notifications about new viewers every now and again so I just wanted to make a quick post! It's been months since I've posted anything new, but I am all done at my second job so hopefully I can put new stuff out soon. All the products I've previously advertised are still available though. Hope all is well!

Good morning! I didn't know how to stage these so they're chillin on a massive rhubarb leaf. Also hey! Long time no see πŸ™ˆπŸ™Š

Likely a huge photo dump on the way to catch up from the past month β™₯️

Okay so I may have already posted these on my personal Instagram last night, I couldn't resist πŸ˜‚

Turns out I really like working with mortar (it's a cement and sand mixture for those who might not know)! It seems to be much more durable than the air dry clay I'm used to working with. I might just have to invest in a bigger variety of molds πŸ˜‰

The hands are kept the natural color, and the van and hamsa hand incense burners are spray painted. I plan on going back and adding some accents with acrylic. This is the first batch made, the second one just finished curing and I was able to get less bubbling with more detail!

I had one other mold for the classic style of incense burners, but this medium turned out to not be the greatest for it. But I plan to experiment with resin in the future, so an update on how that plays out will come eventually.

Sorry for the essay, have a good day everyone! 🫢

Sun-catchers are my new favorite thing to make! They are even more beautiful in person πŸ™ˆ

I have once again waited too long between posts (according to my own arbitrary rules anyway πŸ˜‚). To be fair I had what felt like essentially the plague one of the weeks. That's not mentioning all the farm chores springtime brings, even for us that are currently only wannabe farmers. My boyfriend and I planted over 200 vegetable seedlings this weekend. Plus I have successfully sprouted my first cactus from seed, I don't know why but that is beyond exciting to me lol.

Anyway enough rambling, here are pics of the different options we have to bring good smelling fragrance your way! I have multiple candle size and scent options, this little one has a net weight of only about 3oz but burns for over 9 hours! I consider them my "sample" candles, to try out the scent before committing to a larger size that will burn for much longer. As a result they are pretty cheap compared to a lot of others in the candle game, I typically charge $5 each at this size.

The little glass bottles are car air fresheners! They work similarly to reed fragrance oil diffusers imo. I even found a scent that is exactly like the Black Ice little trees! They are refillable and create far less wasteful than their disposable counterparts.

Unpictured are the incense burners I am working on, currently trying to decide if I like the clay ones or cement ones better. Will report back πŸ™ˆ

If you made it this far, thank you very much for your time I really appreciate it 🫢

These were going to be saved specifically for when the physical store is open, but I started organizing some into different packs and thought they were pretty cute. I have at least a couple hundred already, but only the scrapbook style ones without the waterproof coating so far. Plenty of time to get more, let me know what you'd like to see!

Also, does anyone remember those Happy Bunny stickers from the 90s / early 2000s made by Jim Benton? I was obsessed as a kid and can't find any anywhere. My friend and I started making our own versions of them if anyone is interested in seeing. The current name for them is 'F**k Off Farms' and we've covered ducks, a chicken, and a donkey so far 🀣

Sorry for rambling, and I know it's been under a week since I posted the SVGs I've made, my brain is stuck on stickers bad apparently 😝

Have a good day everyone! 🫢🫢🫢

Just wanted to share some of my T-shirt designs I've been making for the past few months really quick! These are my top three I think, and some of the details get pretty small but the vinyl cutter definitely handles it well. I've made these ones into shirts already, and when I have pictures/feedback from the people who have them I'll post them on here! I've also done a few car decals commissions if anyone would be interested.

ps kinda intimidating sharing untagged digital art these days lol not the most experienced with it yet 🫣

Finally remembered to take some pics of Laina's homemade soap and chapstick!!
Current batch of chapstick is raspberry lemonade, next ones will be lavender, tangerine, and cucumber melon. They are $3 a pop (tub or tube) or $2 each if you buy more than two.
There's too many soap fragrance combos and color combos to list them all out! They are the go to shampoo for a lot of our friends and families, and they are super moisturizing. Good for hand and body soap too! They are $5 a bar, and you can save if you buy multiple at a time. Message us for more info on our current products, to request specific fragrances, or to order!

On the way back home and so excited to burn the latest set of trail candles! They should be almost finished curing, I'm thinking this will be the final test batch. Once I'm 100% confident I have the perfect ratios they will be listed for sale. There's a lot more to candle making than you'd think and it's been quite the learning curve!

ps. the ones in the pics are Cucumber Melon and The 100 Mile Woods. They are heavenly 😍

Had a post drafted before we went on vacation and it's not showing up anywhere 😒
Here's one of the handmade boho burlap bags I'm making. This prototype has already been spoken for, but I have about 20 more to make. They come from recycled coffee bean bags!
