Here's a new set of horns modeled by our new plain-faced friend! These resin horns have a beautiful purple smoky effect, and are mounted on a marble-style 3D-printed base!

Early morning vibes means a green tea and a new project at a cozy cafe. Loving these new hammered scales, we can’t wait to make some more tails from them!

I know, I know, the life of chainmail seems so glamorous. But sometimes, you just gotta sort a big pile of varicolored rings.

Much love to Common Crumb, one of our favorite local cafés, and now a retailer of our lovely crafts! We have a small selection to start with more to come!

If you’re looking for merch AND a snack, a Pride keychain pairs excellently with a maple latte and a strawberry crumb bar.

Been having fun with half-Persian chokers lately! Coming soon to a local market near you

#chainmail #jewelry
Two chokers side-by-side, both arranged in an S-shape. This weave appears to have two separate axes of rings that intersect without looping through their own axis. The near choker is high-contrast yellow and violet; the far one is rainbow and black.
