Talking with oldest teen. Apparently we switched into the bad version of reality when Tim Burton decided to make Sleepy Hollow instead of the Superman movie with Nicolas cage written by Kevin Smith

I think the child is on to something
Nicolas Cage staring intently forward, with a lack of hair falling into his face. He is punching forward towards the camera so you can see the top of his fist. He is wearing a Superman outfit.

New pieces, many go out to a show tomorrow, but I am excited to make more tools that will be used in peoples practices
An array of pottery sitting on a wood table starting in the top back, there is a small Lilith offering set in black and red consisting of an offering bowl and small chalice. There is a giant goblet about 10 inches high decorated in a Unicursal hexagram and the symbol of Babylon in gold and black glaze. In front of those is a blue and iridescent candle spell bowl and a mortar and pestle.

Still needs to be glazed, but I am very excited to start having more tools for sale soon.

It’s because of one of the national guard commanders that got quoted in a local article last week. They are clinging onto scraps that make them feel better
Gronewold said Guard soldiers serve two purposes: "One, to defend America, and two, to protect Oregonians. And so by serving in this mission, they will be protecting any protesters at the ICE facility."

New cauldrons from my full moon raku! These are all washed and ready to go with me to the Witches Ball on the 18th. All my cauldrons are made of mica clay, and can be used in a fire or on the stove. These were burnished with Abramelin oil and fired on the full moon this week

An array of pottery on a wooden table. There is a black-and-white blanket behind the pottery is black and sparkly, and consists of four cauldrons with lids, two large, low scrying bowls with feet, and a smaller offering bowl with long legs. Four mica clay cauldrons. Two of them have legs to stand on, and to have a round smooth bottom. All of them have lids. They are sitting on a wooden table with a black and white blanket behind them. A glamour shot of a small footed cauldron. This photo was closer in so that you can see the silver speckles of Mica in the otherwise blackened clay. The cauldron has three small feet, and small handles and a lid.

Like for instance, this silly thing
A historical “ Elisabethan tankered” it has a speckled brownish glaze and metal at the base neck and middle. The sheep of the vessel is a large round above the space with a long skinny neck a handle comes off the right side. My version of the same mug. Currently unfired greenware.

Was bored of my usual shapes and went down a rabbit hole last night of period accurate drinking vessels for the 15-1600’s. There’s some weird fun ones. My booth this weekend will be interesting
Two greenware goblets, they are both extremely large. The one on the left could probably hold a full wine bottle of liquid and the one on the right about 2/3 of that. There is a Campbell soup cream of mushroom can next to them for scale.

new moon raku a success. I’m really enjoying making these larger scrying bowls and the custom order I was worried about came out nicely. these ones got anointed in a chthonic lunar oil blend from @cobymichael.bsky.social Poisoner’s Apothecary

Getting ready for the Renaissance fair this summer and trying to figure out how to find leggings like this. I’m very excited for the venetian twink costume I’ve been making
Gondolier’s in Venice in the late 1400s. From a Caravaggio painting. The gondolier’s are all in split front Jerkins with multicolored brightly patterned leggings. A painting of a Venetian nobleman. They are wearing fancy leggings that are striped on one leg and solid white on the other. along with a fancy jacket with a gold breast piece and small cloaklet

A large stone mortar, and pestle is in the foreground along with a candle and a brass candle holder. Spread out around it is a large block of wax, a bowl of herbs and a cutting board with knife and a bunch of crumbled hops and chopped up lemon bone.

shameless self promotion

4 new cauldrons and offering bowls out of the raku fire last night for the new moon. the largest offering bowl is made to work as for scrying as well. these are all fire safe and can work with open flame. burnished with abremelin oil.

the snake cauldron is my favorite
