🌟 What is your favorite type of crafting (knitting, crocheting, sewing, embroidery, etc) and why?
I feel like my favorite by a mile has been resin crafting. I liked doing UV resin jewelry but I fucking LOVE doing epoxy work. It’s really frustrating sometimes because it can be a little finicky and I’m still working out how to stop getting gaps and bubbles in certain molds but NOTHING feels as good as unmolding a resin piece and thinking “holy shit I made that”
💚 How long have you been crafting and how did you get started?
My whole life? I mean, my memaw started teaching me to make doll clothes when I was a toddler. I never did get very good at sewing or any of the fiber arts (sorry memaw) but I love doing mixed media stuff and jewelry making. I’ve been doing crafting as like a job for about a year though.
💖 Which one of your creations are you the proudest of? Show off!
I already showed my flower shadow box, but I love this little dude too! I made him out of resin using mica powder and I wore him as a necklace to Ren Faire

🍉 Are you a planner, or are you more of a “eh we’ll see how this one goes” -type of crafter?
I’m more of a “how hard can it be” type of crafter. I think of something and go “well, how hard could that be?” and then I either crush it or learn “much harder than expected, actually”. I have done that for literally EVERYTHING I currently make. Cricut? How hard can it be? Punch needle? How hard can it be? Resin? How hard can it be? Polymer clay? How hard can it be? Stained glass? [I am forcibly yanked off the stage]
💖 Which one of your creations are you the proudest of? Show off!
This fucking shadow box from hell that took like 20 working hours to make and STILL hasn’t sold but is one of THE most gorgeous pieces I’ve ever made in my entire life

❄️ Do you have any crafting (either craft or community related) pet peeves?
(Saving the best because im a petty bitch and have Many)
- This is really vendor specific but I HATE event vendor group chats So Fucking Much. They are full of the absolute dumbest people on God’s green earth made specifically to annoy ME. Just a laundry list of “your reading comprehension is piss poor / how dare you say I piss on the poor” ass people. I have so many examples but the worst most recent one was the day before Easter we had an event in town that had been discussed for MONTHS beforehand. The event coordinator had sent us the set up info on multiple occasions, like I’ve actually never done a more organized event. So we’ve been told many times the set up time was 9am, show time was 11am, okay? The night before the event coordinator sends a message saying basically “hey yall I need you to park on x side of the building and at 10:30am we’re gonna lock the x side entrance doors” and people fucking LOST IT. Like there were IMMEDIATELY ten messages being like “so we only have thirty minutes of set up??????” I hate vendor chats. These people are so fucking stupid.
- I’m in a bunch of Facebook groups for beginners to ask questions in and the thing that just drives me insane is when people are like “hey I bought x thing at the store, how do i decorate it?” like????? However you want?? It’s for you?? What are you even talking about
- Also Facebook related but anyone who can’t read directions on shit and then asks why their resin piece fucked up make me so annoyed
- Also also people who just post a picture and then say “what’d i do wrong” with no further elaboration?? Idk man, what am I looking at??
- craft specific: pet peeve when I get poked by wire when making ribbon wreaths
- also when I misjudge where my finger is when deburring resin and nick my finger 😠
- when fabric won’t lay flat for a fucking iron on
- when the transfer tape gets a crinkle on top of a decal and makes the decal go a little wonky is my fucking 9/11

Decided to do some Valentines inspired by some of my favorite 1950s art for my Patreon this month (Feb 2024), and here’s sketch 4/4 💕
This will be one of the print choices for my Acid Rain tier once it’s finished!

Grifters Bone. Tonight, SOHO. Leave the earbuds behind... I come back from my semi hiatus/burnout with a fake band poster, Grifters Bone from The Magnus Archives. It's one of my favorite episodes of the series, and deserves a band poster!

It would fall into fan art category and since you have no intention of distribution and commercial use everything should be fine.
If I remember correctly they specified that you just 1) Don’t claim that there was a permission given 2) reference the source 3) Don’t use for profit
Okay, very good to know thank you 😊

Do you guys think it would be okay to make a book from the unofficial transcripts for personal use? I put together the pdf for season one but now I’m worried about it I guess

the line between "sacred" and "scared" is the placement of a single letter. which probably means nothing. but i'm going to read into it.
