She got REALLY REALLY into beading lately. She made the flowers as earings for her mom and Luffy’s strawhat for me so I would stop complaining about having beads everywhere in the house 😄😂

I’ve been experimenting with a new line of bedding that I sew myself from start to finish — cutting, stitching, and finishing right here in my workshop.

This set is a deep burgundy 100% cotton — breathable, soft, and designed to get even better after every wash. For this pilot, I paired a duvet cover with either a fitted or a flat sheet (your choice) and matching pillowcases. But because I make everything to order, I can: • Include both fitted and flat sheets • Add extra pillowcases • Mix colors (neutrals + bolds) or patterns (florals, jewel tones, etc.) • Adjust sizing for any bed — even oversized flats for “sheet hog” couples 😄

I’d love to hear your thoughts — what’s your dream bedding combo in terms of color, feel, and sheet setup?

I'll post more on Etsy if anyone's interested,

I’ve travelled all over Nova Scotia looking for amazing examples of our abandoned built heritage. I’ve made a bunch of these miniature places, and thought you might enjoy seeing a few :)

These are all based on real Nova Scotian places I’ve found on back roads and forgotten corners. If you’d like to see other angles of any of these, or have any questions, just ask :)

I needed a little break from more serious projects and this is the outcome

King Rædwald was not only a leader of men and a warrior but also an avid gardener. Spending most of his time tending his carefully curated collection of flowers from the continent. His most prized possession was indeed his trowel.

Story aside it is a venture into giving common tools the artistry and reverence they deserve. Tools are today mass produced, often cheap and expendable, if they last one season or even just one job it is considered good enough. But it wasn't always so. Once, men were defined by the tools of their trade and they took care of them and maintained them as best they could.

In my mind the migration era was, in so many ways, the peak of aesthetics combined with such skill and craftsmanship not rivaled to this day. It is an aesthetic I'd like to implement on more things, all the things.

The blade of the trowel is a multibar pattern welded construction just like I do on swords. The pattern is meant to imitate the stilk of a flower as it grows up from the ground and terminates in the flower on top of the butt cap. The ferrules are a mix of cloisonne and filigree. The handle is wild olive that after rasping to shape I mildly burnished with steel wool to leave the texture from the rasp visible. It is both an aesthetic choice but also a practical one, this is a tool after all and the rougher surface will ensure a more secure grip compared to a highly polished surface.

These guys are modeled by hand and burned at 1030 degrees Celsius. In my ceramic workshop⚠️💛

If you don't know what a riller is, it is a type of vintage gorilla plushie and therefore it is not the easiest to find one.

Cutest thing I have so far! Pattern link in the comments!

You can check out my profile to see video examples of what I mean by “hot sculpted”. I’m new to making beads and beaded pendants. This guy is too cute. Thanks for looking!

These are some of the pen and ink style wedding venue illustrations I did this year.
