NEW PRODUCT UPDATE: The Overlook Hotel (Halloween 2024 Release)

Image
  Vanessa Theodore Art & Prismatic Skies New Product Update June 14, 2024 Working on a Halloween 2024 product release ideas and one of the ideas that I came up with for the Halloween 2024 release is doing a lot of custom fragrance blends for wax melts, candles, resin decor, jewelry, art, etc. in honor of a lot of classic horror films, a lot of cult classics, and a lot of B-Horror (foreign and American) films. One of the new custom VMT fragrances that I just finished blending and pouring for is a new wax melt called, "  The Overlook Hotel ."  I am going to do a few custom fragrances in honor of the 1980 horror film, " The Shining ," starring Jack Nicholson , and directed by Stanley Kubrick , based off of the Stephen King   novel of the same name. Although, I do not have the final product design right now, as I have deciding between the two designs I came up with, I did pour a good amount of 2oz. shot cup samples with lids for the new and coming MYSTERY BAGS that...

  MAGPIE TREASURES CANDLE:  Lemon Scented Candle In Vintage Hobnail Milk Glass Candy Bowl w/Lid I have been making Magpie Treasures Candles since December 2020.  Magpie Treasures Candles are handmade candles that I have created in (typically) vintage, rare, hard-to-find (not always - and they're usually more expensive) glassware. The glassware are typically mugs, cups, bowls, compotes, candy bowls, and the like.  The candles are made from a soy and paraffin wax blend and the fragrances are of my own creation/custom blend fragrances. I do not remember where I got this beautiful piece from, I think I bought it at a Savers here in New Hampshire . I wasn't always the greatest at making candles , but through A LOT of trial and error over the years, I have definitely gotten waaaaaaay better and the pieces have become much more beautiful, along with the fun treasures inside the candle . This beautiful candle was made in a fresh lemon scent that was made with fragranc...

BEST SELLER: Krampus Greetings

  BEST SELLER:  Krampus Greetings I haven't written an article in sometime;  I have been busy with work, getting stuff ready for the launch of my website in March, and getting sick fairly often!  I wanted to write about one of my best sellers since the Magpie Designs days before it was introduced to the Prismatic Skies website .  Krampus Greetings ! I have always had an odd fascination about this whole Krampus lore.  I'm not German, so it's not something that I grew up with.  I grew up having German friends and I don't remember whose house it was and how exactly I came across an image, but it was at a friend's house during Christmas time and I legit thought they had Satan mixed in with all this Catholic stuff and Christmas galore.  I have no problem with Satan, Satanists, and Satanism, BTW.  I'm all for it.  Whatever floats your nads. From that moment on though, about the age of maybe 10 or 11 years old, I was sold on the dude...without...
