Here's one of my more nature themed projects I did recently! Just a tiny pine display box (i think from dollar tree? actually found it at a thrift store but it has a dollar tree tag lol). I don't have any before pictures of it (blasphemy). I got a hold of wood stain last year and have been having at it with a lot of cheap wood stuff laying around
Used to hold my moth collection but it has since outgrown it! So I stained it with wood stain + hot glued moss all over and decided to use it to display my more fragile specimen's that didn't have a place yet!
(Inside: dragonfly, dried shelf fungi, twin pine seed, bird skull, white lined sphinx moth (if I'm not mistaken), butterfly I forgot to identify, cicada.
On top: porcupine quills and a chicken bone.
Porcupine quills were a gift, everything else I found and saved. Actually my brother found the moth and saved it for me.)
It does have a protective casing on the front, but I took it off for the picture because of the glare.

Dropped this guy off to his new (/old) home ♥️
It must feel good to have it mounted after 5+ years!

it's desmond's birthday 🎉
(inspired by @miralyk 's prof that thought desmond is a deceased friend, here's something to validate that thought sksjkd)
offerings' meanings: *i'm javanese in hokkien + ke diaspora so this is in my culture's context
can of grass jelly drink; i know he's a bartender but i'm not drinking alcohol on an afternoon—plus, grass jelly has herbal purposes here to keep you in good health. desmond definitely needs health. drink up king.
jempiring incense; a type of jasmine flower incense—the smell is sweeter than regular jasmines (in a good way). i reserve this incense for dead people and spirits. it has connotations with the space between the dead and living, ghosts, and innocence of the soul so that you can pass on peacefully.
3 stones i got from forest walks or beach walks. i correspond the colours to altaïr, ezio, and connor. i have no clue what the stones are though.
i don't usually celebrate dead people's birthdays (i celebrate deathversaries mostly), so i don't know how different it is to treat it than regular deathversary kdjskfkdsk
happy birthday desmond miles 💐

Fun fact, I love taxidermy! The swallowtail and promethea are actually my first attempt at pinning moths while the rest were gifts from family.
And of course I have my lovely comet moth :)

Opening soon!
I've been making things for loved ones my entire life, and now, I want to make them for everyone else.
My local DND and game shop has been selling some of my Magic Gamer Dice Potion Bottles, and they were such a hit, I decided to expand!
Do you like insects? Moss? Gaming?? I know you do!
Soon, I'll also have gamer and macabre cross stitch (kits and full products), shadow boxes, and a selection of Frankenbutterflies!
Message me for more info!
