Ashen Relics

If you head up to the Great Lakes Medieval Faire, be sure to visit my Gnome Bro, Gnoble the Gnome , and all of his enchanting, fey friends!

Thanks to all who braved the heat at the Ohio Viking Festival

Norse-styled leather bracer made with only hand tools. Dm me if interested. Well wishes to all on this Saturn's day.

It all started on a small card table with a hammer, a shield, and a handful of runes.

It is fun to compare the then vs. now. Many things have changed, such as the business name and focus, but my love for making hasn't.

In difficulty, I make to cope
In excess, I make to celebrate
And when lost, I make to find myself

Going public with your art is a very vulnerable feeling, but the journey has been endlessly rewarding. I could not have done it without the kindness, the stories, and the encouraging words from the community. For that, I thank you.

I will be taking a couple months off from vending to prepare for this summer. See you at the YSU Festival of the Arts and the !

As always,
Ward the forces of Woe
Work the forces of Weal

I have a humble little set up at "The Last Minute Market" at the B & O Station. Today and tomorrow from 11-5. Happy Holidays!
