It is always an honour to be asked to make something for someone, but this one, well....
My 1st ever event in May 2024, nervous as hell, had my Dad with me, then I met this amazing little bundle of joy next to me, we clicked instantly and we love each other to bits. That happy little bundle was Claire Brett !
I don't think I'm that skilled at what I do, so was worried I wouldn't be able to do what Claire was asking, make a mini version of the Practical Magick Emporium ! Candles !! Intention baubles ??!! Well, after a bit of practice and a big mess, I did it. Candles are real, made from Claire's candles, bath salts using her actual salts ! Have to say, the wax is super soft, like moisturiser !! Claire's book and award are of course included - 34 unique items, most in multiples !! This took about 5 hours of looking up and down the FB page and then about 22 hours to make - messy, but great fun !!
I delivered this, this morning and there may have been squealing !
I can take custom commission work using a broader range of media now - soy wax!
What do you think ?
Special thanks to Natalie Muncaster-Rule for the photo and video session, Kelly Golding for all the little trinkets you bring me and Velvet Pentacle for the little vessels so I could make the candles !!!! ###
