Things are cooking here at Szandor’s Phytomancy! We’re deep in the negotiation process for a new dwelling of our very own! Everything is going well so far, but it’s been a flurry of activity. I have some cool things planned so stay tuned!

Hot dang this is happening fast. We've come under contract on a home and have finished inspection. Some issues that need to be addressed in the negotiation process, but nothing huge. The home is historic, so that's a huge shock. We basically found the perfect home for us.

Some #smallbusiness development updates: A new shop/venue is opening in in #olympiawa! I reached out to see if they will carry my DIY #terrarium kits and if they are accepting proposals for classes. Despite being mid-launch, I got a reply back quickly and have an interview this week!

Fed my Powder Orange #isopod #terrarium some algae I removed from a mini jar #paludarium. Everyone seems to like it so far!

Returning to my day job after a successful weekend selling my #terrarium kits is the pits. I just want to work for myself.

Part of the whimsy I want to bring into my brand is world building and I have really only done that on my website. While I enjoy roleplaying, it felt disingenuous because I'm so passionate building #terrariums. This is my compromise: The Phytomantic Codex

Just as I'm getting traction on the business's #Facebook account, the #clanker moderator decided that when I shared my friend's #isopod giveaway, I was trying to harvest personal information in order to compromise accounts. I've submitted for review, but we know how this goes.

My first #reptileshow as a vendor and I am deep fried crispy. I only made table money, but I got to network a lot with lots of likeminded folks. Had a great time at PACNWRS!

Proud to have in my hands the very first officially copy of my #terrarium tracking #journal. This is my first product launch, period, and I did it from conception to reality. I have the kits but that’s a combination of several external ideas. These launch this Saturday at PACWNRS #reptileshow

A sample of the cover for my #terrarium tracking journal fresh from the printer! Excited to have theses available at PACNWRS!

I was on a social media streak, but prep for the #reptileshow (PACWNRS) and maintaining the streak wasn't working! The nice thing is that a lot of the prep I'm doing is going to be re-used in the future, but the first big event is a huge lift. The #terrarium kit business is worth it though :)

Did a little photoshoot with my #terrarium kits and what one could look like. (Along with some props) Included is the illustrated instructions and available on the right is the terrarium tracking journal! Come check us out if you happen to be going to PACNWRS #reptileshow

We're buying soon and I got into #houseplants and #terrariums in this house. Cultivating all sorts of green spaces all over this rental house. I didn't think at the time, the repercussions of moving all these plants and terrariums when we bought a forever home -_-

Round two of #reliefprinting and we’re completely done with the bags! Did about 75 bags and two prints!

Got the first batch of bags printed! First time doing a #reliefprint like this, so I’m stoked how it’s come out.

This plant wizard has busted his butt to get everything ready for his first #reptileshow
#Terrarium Kits: like to buy more jars
Journals: printer ready
Instructions: printed and folded
Bags: awaiting ink for #reliefprinting
Random purchases: done
That’s the mostly completed tasks.

Thanks to my local library I’m able to print out my DIY #terrarium instructions for free! Printed and folded out 101 copies! It needs improvements but it’s great for beginners who don’t know what they don’t know. They come with our kits and I’ll be giving them away as well!

Made a #blockprint for my paper bags. Twice actually, because I did it non-mirrored the first time. Learned a ton making the mistake the first time that the second one took a fraction of the time to make!

Peter the #jumpingspider has been with us for just about a month and we've learned some things! First, this is our invert predator we've owned (outside of cats and dogs) and while we're not squeamish, feeding him live food has been somewhat of a learning curve.

While getting into #houseplants has been cool, I’ve really enjoyed making plant stands like a miniature base. Where I started and where I’m at. The bases come from Dollar Tree and most of the stuff is hand made (the sign is 3D printed) Like mini #diorama telling a very small story.

Got to visit the Seattle Spheres today and I’m super inspired by everything I saw. After the dust settles from the event this month, I’m going to figure out how to make my first living wall. I saved this wine box from last year for this end!

I learned a valuable lesson in 2025 and that was that I spent too much time pursuing perfection in my #art. I started working on my idea of a #terrarium tracking #journal towards that effort. It’s exactly what it is: a handmade item, made with care. If I have a resolution in 2026 it’s to just #make
