Spine Candles

Yesterday while searching around on Etsy I came across these wonderful and unique candles created by Daniel from the Etsy shop TheOneRider. Daniel is fairly new to Etsy, and these candles are his first offering. They are made of beeswax with self trimming cotton wicks. Wouldn’t they be a great addition to the mantle or table come Halloween? … though, they are so cool I would display them year round I think!

Finally back at it…

I haven’t used the studio for much more than a storage/household dumping ground for the past 4 months. It was getting to the point where there were so many boxes etc in here that I couldn’t even walk from one side of the room to the other!
Over the past couple days I mucked out the entire room and even reorganized some of the cupboards. Things are all in order and with clean workspace all around I can finish what I left over winter and get on to some new items.

Today I have been having fun with some small classic potion shaped bottles, making aged and distressed labels and completing some clay polymer beads, which look extremely bland and white in this first photo…
