Freaky Fanatics: Ashley’s Eye of The Tiger

I am loving these photos that my Etsy customer Ashley sent to me! She received my Tiger’s Eye Spiritual Skullerfly Crystal Ornamental Wreath and wanted to share how she’s displaying it in her home. Can we talk about how perfect it looks next to her fun leopard print lamp?!

With her photos Ashley sent me a message saying..

“I got this today! I really love it! I love the glitter painted skull, the colors, the beads, everything!”

Thank you again Ashley for sharing. I hope it invokes lots of courage, confidence, light, and positivity into your life. So mote it be.

For those that are new here, I make these pieces of art inspired by a specific crystal or gemstone. They are made with loving intentions and before I put them up for sale I always bless them with incense and charge them by the full moon. Once the piece is sold it is forever with the one it is meant to be with and I never make one inspired by that specific crystal or gemstone again. This makes them one-of-a-kind and truly special to the person who owns them. A little bit of handmade magic!

Interested in a Spiritual Skullerfly Crystal Ornamental Wreath that is available to ship now? I have 2 pre-made ones left in my Etsy Shop (also available at a “support a small business” discounted price if purchased in person at Closet Collectibles in Crete Illinois).

Spellbinding: Spiritual Skullerfly Crystal Wreaths

So I know I mentioned in a past post that I was currently working on some creations that I started before everyone was forced to stay home due to the corona virus pandemic. I completed them during quarantine and have been going crazy not being able to share them with my Freaky Fanatics. However it was very important to me to get photos of them outside.

Ironically with the world in chaos I feel like everyone could use some extra healing right now so being able to get out to photograph them came at perfect timing. My husband and I took a trip to a secluded forest area and he helped me get some good shots of them for all of you. When they were hanging in the trees they looked so magical as though they were left their by fairies which is exactly what I had hoped for.

Handcrafted, blessed with incense and charged by the Strawberry Full Moon, here they are.. my Limited Edition Spiritual Skullerfly Crystal Wreaths!

These pre-made pieces of hanging art were handcrafted with a miniature wreath as a base with a ornament hook for hanging. They each feature a glittery Skullerfly coordinated with a matching rosary chain of crystal beads, a clear point natural crystal gemstone to draw in positive energy and adorned with matching feathers, faux flower petals and twigs from nature dipped in glitter.

Carnelian (Orange) to invoke Creativity – Sacral Chakra

Rose Quartz (Pink) to invoke Love – Heart Charka

Aventurine (Green) to invoke Prosperity – Heart Chakra

Lapis Lazuli (Blue) to invoke Confidence – Throat Chakra

I currently have pre-made only 1 of each of these. Buy the one that speaks to you the most and let it invoke and inspire you where ever you may display and hang it. Each one measuring approximately 5″ x 4″ and currently available while supplies last in my Etsy Shop!

To see more of my magical creations be sure to check out the Spellbinding section of my Portfolio website! Happy Healing everyone!

Stay Spooky!

Spitting Image: Maybe Today Satan

I will start off by saying (once again) that I have never really been a fan of re-makes and re-boots. However, I will allow you to quote me as saying that the “re-boot” of Sabrina The Teenage Witch is quite the exception. Those of us who grew up on the Archie comics, the cartoon and even embraced the 90s TV sitcom got to enjoy the cutesy version of Sabrina Spellman.

Now as adults we get to bask in the sinful glory of a MUCH darker side of what it could have been like to be in Sabrina’s half-witch half-mortal shoes. So in other words, The Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina on Netflix is the version I had always hoped for but never got (sorry Melissa Joan Hart but I did love you in Clarissa Explains It All!). The first time I laid eyes on The Academy of Unseen Arts I was like “Screw Hogwarts! Sign me up here!” (I even have an alumni sweatshirt cause I am a dork like that). So I guess what I am trying to say is that I really dig this show. I think a lot of it has to do with all the incredible Biblical, Pagen, Horror Movie, Archie and Riverdale references that they incorporate and cross reference on top of the story line. Some being super obvious and others as hidden Easter Eggs for fans who really “get it”.

That leads me to my latest art piece inspired by the beautifully talented Kiernan Shipka as Sabrina. I didn’t want to just draw her in her everyday look. If you know a thing or two about the show you will definitely get the play on words that I am using for the title as you take in what I have drawn. I call it “Maybe Today Satan”…

For those who have not started watching this show yet, I will not give away too much. What I will say is that this split face portrait is inspired by Sabrina’s two royalty looks as the Queen of Hell aka Sabrina Spellman – Morningstar! This piece was done in pencils and chalk pastels.

Are you a good witch or a bad witch? Either way prints and shirts of this art piece are now available in my Amazon shop for you to rock proudly as either! You can also see more of my portrait work in the Spitting Image section of my portfolio website!

Stay Spooky!
