As fugly as my little kitten toy turned out to be, I'm grateful that the youngling likes it so much. 🥰🖤

The kitten is teething so I decided to dig out my scrap leather and some spare polyfill that I had from a neck pillow I got for my son that was way over full and make said kitten a little a fishy chew toy.

I admit it looks a little pathetic but hopefully he likes it. 😅

My efforts for customers are greater than those for my own stuff. I care a lot more when it's for someone else. Lol

Also, I really need to remember to invest in some thimbles because every time I make something with leather I end up impaling one of my fingers with a leather needle. 🫠

I may not be using sweat and tears in my crafts but I'm definitely using b l ø ø d whether I like it or not. 💀

This piece is my own design.
It is a 3 chain necklace/pendulum combo.
One chain being a perfectly balanced, fully functional, witch made divination pendulum that clips on and off from the necklace for easy use and save keeping.

Making your divinatory pendulum double as an aesthetic piece of jewelry all while never having to worry about digging around in the bottom of your bag for it ever again.
Or worse, losing it.

It is called the Oraculace. (™ pending)
It can also be made in anklet form, dubbed the Oraculet.
Latin: "oraculum" - (meaning "prophecy") + "necklace/anklet".

I am putting this out there ahead of schedule because I found myself in a pickle and I need a little boost.

If there is anyone who would be interested in a custom piece of one of these necklace/pendulum combos, DM me to put your name on my order list.

Should I get enough requests to offset my wouldbe supply costs I will make the leap to purchase said supplies and make custom orders for those on the list.

Multiple can be made in a day and all early birds will get a custom piece (normally $77) at the price of a pre-made piece ($66).

That pricing presently includes shipping costs to anywhere in the continental United States. Overseas shipping will be discussed before ever getting to the piece's details.

SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY
I'm will be talking your interest to heart so please refrain from messaging about ordering one of of these pieces if you think there's any chance you'll not be able or willing to pay for it within a few weeks time.

If you flake without so much as a "pain in the ass fee" ($13) I won't work with you again unless it's at a booth and in person. 🥰🧿🥰

Things are getting real weird up in here, darklings. 🖤 The first 4 pics are of a new art piece I've just started and I admit, after I started wiring the bones on I was reminded of a piece so I hope it's not too similar. If so I won't post images until it's further along. It's nowhere near done at the moment and there will be a lot more of a head instead of a floating set of jaw bone, though that's cool too.
And the last pic is my one armed spell cast Skelly man pendant sporting his new necklace in steel, brushed hematite and crystal and waving goodbye and thanks for stopping by! 🖤🦇🙃🖤

Sometimes life sends you on a most arduous quest to regain your power & step into your destiny with purpose, resolve & an eager spirit.
By mere actions alone the growing pains can be staggering. Then there are the ones that come from helplessness. Those are the most biting.

I miss my gorgeous baby kitty. I miss her head smashes (no joke, not boops, these can be a little painful), the way she hugs me when I pick her up under her fuzzy pits when she walks up to me. I miss how when I'm sitting down to work or chill she chooses to sit on my t**s because I guess my lap is trash. I miss her crawling up into my bed in the morning so she can somehow manage to perfectly curl up on the side of my head, (side sleeper here).

I miss the way she'll purr & nuzzle her face on my chin to scratch the eyelid corner of her missing eye. I love how when she puts her front paws on my shoulder to get my attention she always leans over into my ear & whisper meows. I've never heard a cat do that and I've known many, many, many kitties. Or how when I startle her awake (accentually, I'm not that big of a dick) when she's been deeply sleeping she'll start making trilling sounds like a raccoon.

I do have a theory that she hung out with trash pandas as a kitten because she was born of a stray that found very young (10 -13 weeks old), completely blind from her dual eye infections & nearly starved to death. I was told if she hadn't been picked up by those people that night she would've been dead by morning.

If I ever find out who found her I would love to give them big hugs & show how big she's gotten & all kinds of s**t! Seriously, no cat has ever been more ideal for me than her & I miss her like mad.

Sorry about the tangent, lovelies! Feeling a wee heart sick. Going through major life changes & personal metamorphosis that's left me homeless & climbing up from rock bottom. I'm making progress. But I miss having love. I miss my kitty love.This will pass. 🖤

Here's the major 2018 update. As it currently stands, Iron Maiden Artistry will not be doing festival booths this year.

In addition to massive life changes, the need for relocation, intense mental health struggles and the need for additional work on the temporary, all of the equipment I utilised for these events has been destroyed and I am in no position to replace those items at present.

I will be continuing to make art and items that I will be adding to my Etsy page which will be updated soon.

I thank you kindly for your understanding and my goal is to be ready to have a full festival year in 2019. Luck is appreciated. Much love and thank you for your continued support.
