31.03.2025 21:52 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The image is a collage with three photos highlighting a witchy necklace with a cauldron and triquetra combo. There's a screen grab of a comment on the center. The poster's info has been redacted. The comment reads, "Most evil and satanic post I've seen in 2024." The beaded strand features a mix of tiny pale purple kunzite, two sizes of onyx rondelles, star cut lepidolite beads, large faceted amethyst beads, and small purple glass flowers handmade by Oliverstar. The focal combines a metallic lampwork glass cauldron and a fancy sterling silver triquetra, from which hangs the cauldron. The cauldron, made by Esmerical Glassworks, is overflowing with tiny glass bubbles in multiple shades of purple. The triquetra has a pentagram, crescent moons and stars, and a pale purple glass crystal adorning it. In the first photo, the necklace is being modeled by Bri, the artist. They are a pale nonbinary human with silver and light brown hair in an undercut style. They have blue eyes, a beard, and a red face. They're wearing black rectangular acrylic framed spectacles, and a black gauzy top with silver stars and moons all over it, as well as the necklace described above. In the second image, the necklace is displayed on a miniature mannequin. In the third, it's arranged in a hand, with a rainbow doormat in the background.
LOL. I just saw this yesterday, and I'm definitely taking it as encouragement to make more pieces with this vibe. π₯°

The photo is a selfie of Bri, a pale nonbinary human. They have light brown and silver hair, a red face, and a beard with a whole lot of silver. They have dimples and are smiling gently at the camera. Bri is wearing a gauzy black top with silver celestial design, black rectangular acrylic framed spectacles, and has their hair pulled back. They are also wearing a necklace made for Imbolc, featuring lampwork glass snowdrops by Oliverstar, a folksy ceramic bird by Gaea, and a sterling silver Brighid's cross charm. The beading includes faceted amethyst, Czech glass, and sterling silver accents.
Hey, y'all! π I thought I'd share this sweet necklace I made for Brighid one year ago. This piece was loaded with handmade elements, including snowdrop beads by Ukrainian artists Oliverstar and a beautiful ceramic bird bead by Gaea Cannaday.
Sending lots of love to you all. ππ Stay safe, friends!
The background image is a sunny yellow and green bokeh image. There's a semi-transparent layer on top with a split sun mandala, showing half of each of the two designs I'm gifting. Text at the top reads, "Wishing you a very Merry Imbolc from Baubles & Blessings!" Text at the bottom of the image reads, "Coloring pages by Mad Genius Designs."
Merry Imbolc! π Here's a token of gratitude for everyone who supports my art, and me and AJ as human beings. I appreciate you!
There are two beautiful sun mandala coloring pages on my website, created for me by Jewel at Mad Genius Designs last year.
Wishing you all a beautiful and blessed spring!
Merry Imbolc! ππ

There's a rainbow doormat in the background, and very dramatic lighting. The first and last photos feature two very similar collections of crystals: a small pink rose quartz altar plate/disc with a tree of life design etched and colored with shimmery gold paint; a heart-shaped tiger's eye worry stone; and a blue apatite heart. The second photo shows 10 different penguins carved in crazy lace agate. They are mostly yellow, orange, and grey. The third photo features 10 wee carved turtles, half in green aventurine, and the other half in moss agate, with shades of green and brown.
I'm only at 2k/5k for my January goal. If you've been thinking of snagging a piece, now is the perfect time!
I'll be gifting a crystal penguin or turtle with my next 20 orders, and randomly choosing two $50+ orders between now and the end of the month to receive one of these fun prize packs.
There are four photos collaged together, each with a stainless steel adjustable bangle bracelet on a small round black riser, with a rainbow doormat in the background.

There are several photos collaged together, showcasing a witchy boot necklace with green accents. This necklace has faceted onyx beads in multiple sizes, coated pyrite rondelles, prehnite, and green Czech glass beads with Czech glass seed beads. The pendant is a handmade witchy boot from Arcane Artifacts Art, painted glittery black with shimmery olive green and bronze accents. The first image is a selfie of the artist, Bri. They are a pale, androgynous nonbinary human with a red face, brown and silver hair in an undercut, and blue eyes. Bri has a beard with lots of silver, and a scorpion neck tattoo. They're wearing a black top with silver celestial pattern, black rectangular acrylic framed spectacles, and the necklace described. They're smiling at the camera. The second image shows the necklace on a miniature mannequin with a parchment paper pattern. The final image features the necklace arranged in a hand.
Y'all, how much fun is this #witchy boot necklace? π It's been waiting a while for a new home!
While not technically inspired by #Wicked, some folks are feeling that vibe here, and I can definitely see why!

Anything that gives you meaningful experience costs an arm and a leg." ... "That's why they don't have any!" πππ I laughed for about 5 minutes straight after this. AJ thinks I'm hilarious, but I don't know how to be funny on purpose. It always feels like a surprise, LOL. (For those who aren't familiar, this is funny because the figures used to represent people in The Game of Life are just pegs, which do not have limbs.)

There's blurred light brown vinyl plank flooring in the background. In the bowl, there's an island of rice surrounded by a ring of broccoli crowns. Atop the puck of rice is a face made of veggies. There are two butternut squash cubes for eyes, and several small broccoli crowns arranged like a bushy mustache. Not as glorious as Freddie's, alas, but slightly magnificent for humble broccoli.
Absolutely no one:
Me: "Hey look, honey! It's Freddie Broccoli!" π
There are three photos in a collage, showcasing a striking raven necklace. The raven was hand carved from buffalo horn. The necklaces feature faceted black onyx, vibrant red lampwork glass flowers handmade by Ukrainian artists Oliverstar, and sterling silver spacers. Most of the beads are onyx in various sizes; the red flower beads are in between sections of graduated onyx beads. The first image is a selfie, with the artist modeling the necklace. Bri is a pale nonbinary human wearing black rectangular acrylic framed spectacles, a dark red bandana, and an old, faded black v-neck top. They have a beard with a lot of silver, and a scorpion tattoo on their neck. They're smiling at the camera. The middle image shows the piece on a miniature mannequin. The final photo has the same necklace, arranged in the palm of a hand.
Hey, y'all! β€οΈ I designed this beauty for MorrΓgan, and there's one looking for a home. π¦ββ¬
(How gorgeous are these sweet handmade flowers by Oliverstar!?)
Please note that the available piece is a replica of the one in pix. Same design, but expect minor differences in the handmade beads and pendant.
There are three pairs of earrings collaged together. Each pair has a stainless steel connector charm with a nazar, an evil eye protection symbol that looks like an eye, with rings of blue, white, and a black circle in the center. Below the eye charms are large gemstone beads: these are either smooth round sunstone beads, faceted prism moonstone beads, or smooth round amazonite beads, depending on the pair. Hanging at the bottom are fun boho rainbow charms made by Gaea. The pairs are matched in size, but mismatched in color.
π§Ώ I still have one pair of each of these earrings! π§Ώ
These feature ceramic #rainbow charms handmade by Gaea Cannaday, paired with sunstone, moonstone, or amazonite; and stainless steel eye charms with resin.

The pendant was made by combining a tiny glass daisy bead with a glass blueberry, and sterling silver accents. The beaded necklace features alternating clear quartz and white mother of pearl rondelles, with faceted deep blue iolite beads after each set of nine rondelles.
This sweet #necklace is a #memorial piece that I made as an #RAOK. When the recipient asked about a someday custom, they were looking for a piece with a blueberry, a daisy, and mother of pearl.
