Mellie's Menagerie

Down with the monarchy brass enameled badge. Ready to ship. I loved making this. Special commission

Finished product

Astarion infernal tattoo pendant

Baldurs Gate 3 fan piece. Astarion's infernal back tattoo, engraved in 1.2mm 304 stainless then filled with blood red enamel and flat polished back to reveal the infernal text underneath. Supplied with a 925 silver snake style chain.

Only on Etsy for 12 hours before selling 🥰🥰

Slight re design to the Astarion Pendant. Moved the eyelet so it doesn't interfere with the design, changed some speed, power and line spacing settings to improve the cut time (still 1.5 hours) filled in the recess with enamel paint then flat polished to bring the details back out. Very happy, apart from the odd air bubble that managed to escape my tinkering.

Stainless steel White Lotus Pai Sho keychain with an interesting pattern on the rear as it was distorted from the heat of the engraving

Astarion back scar pendant engraved in stainless steel. 53*33*2mm

Another commission ticked off the list. Think that's all of them now 🤭🤭

drew this for so I transcribed it to be engraved on glass. Can't to see him get it tomorrow!

Latest commission. Really enjoy working with stainless steel. Takes a while to work, but it comes out great. Look forward to doing more of these customs

Commission piece for an old friend, requesting for a 60th birthday. Really happy with it. Came out wonderful!

Messing around with some baldurs gate themed coaster. 4 forms of goostarion! Watch your sandwiches!

Bristol Alternative Market

Latest piece on glass. Spooky season is so fun!

Some more halloweeny themed glass pieces

Next effort... I never sprayed this one with the white contrast coat. I frosted the glass and back lit it. All I can say is, in the words of George Takei... ohhhh myyyyyy

Laser engraved glass.

Couple of quick and dirty experiments with sprayed glass. A lovely little winter hamlet and a spooky pumpkin boy

This is my next event. Ramping up production of new stock. Lots of new ideas in the pipeline, lots of fresh stock on the way. Watch this space! Meet me and several of my fellow traders at what is looking to be a fantastic event!

Coming up - Alternative Market at the unique and atmospheric Gloucester Prison on Saturday 18th November from 11am - 5pm. FREE entry. This market will showcase traders who deliver a product or service which is a little different to the 'traditional'. You can expect to see such things as: Psychic readers, preloved/reworked/handmade alternative/gothic/vintage clothing and accessories, jewellery, homeware, therapies, witchy/new age, all things gothic, all things steampunk, body products, art, handmade oddities, taxidermy, literature, hand crafted wooden ware, sculptures, adult content (handmade bo***ge items and novelties, handmade kink/fetish wear, erotica, naughty toiletries, slogan clothing, literature, art) and anything else which is unique and non-standard. We also have several buskers and live bands throughout the day, hot food vans, artisan coffee and Gloucester Brewery on site. Most traders take card, but cash is welcome.

Pagan symbology engraved on Cornish beach slate and stones.

I don't like putting anything negative on here, but it's something that I've struggled with and need to address/use as an opportunity to reassure customers that I don't agree with these practices, and this will never be done by myself.

All of my goods are made by myself from Raw materials. The only things bought in is hardware for keychains, necklace clasps etc.

If I was to make this, I may charge £10-12 for it depending on material and size. And it would take me approximately an hour and a half. Initial drawing (I only have to do this once) cutting, deburring, polishing, cutting necklace to size and affixing hardware etc.

I understand why people do this, it's quick, easy, high profit, and guaranteed quality. And if they're honest about it, fair enough. But it's something I will never do.

I can't in good conscience sell to a beloved community something that means something to them spiritually that I've ordered in bulk from overseas, with no heart, no personality and no passion.

I've cropped out the account of this person, this isn't a personal attack on them, and I have no idea about them or their business personally. No implications about them made, It's just used as an example.

Event announcement! 18th November at Gloucester Prison.

Hi I’m Jules of Emerge Events in Gloucestershire. As part of my MA, I am studying dark tourism which has inspired the design of my next event.
We need more alternative events in Gloucestershire, so I am holding an Alternative Market at Gloucester Prison on Saturday 18th November. This authentic venue is one of the oldest purpose-built prisons in the country and is unique and atmospheric. The market will provide those traders who deliver a product or service which is a little different to the 'traditional', an opportunity to showcase their offering in an inclusive space.
Suitable businesses could include Psychic readers (tarot, astrology, aura reading, palmistry etc.), preloved/reworked/handmade alternative/gothic/vintage style clothing and accessories, therapies (Indian Head, seated massage, reflexology, crystal healing etc.), witchy/new age, all things gothic, all things steampunk, tattoo themed, piercing/body jewellery, music (actual music or related items), body products, art, handmade oddities, taxidermy, literature, handmade homewares, adult content (handmade bo***ge items and novelties, handmade kink/fetish wear, erotica, naughty toiletries, slogan clothing, literature, art) or anything else which is unique and non-standard.
If you are 1 of these traders or know someone who is, and fancy trading from a prison cell for the day, please email me at [email protected] and I will send more information and an application form

Having some sh*ts and giggles with the laser today. Super quick and rough design. Tickled me though.

A while ago I made some custom indicator blanks for a bespoke Turbo Triumph. Now I have the pleasure of making him a new keyring to add one of the final touches to the set. Engraved and cut from stainless steel. Very simple, but so pleasing to make and to look at!

My next pop up stall will be in Birmingham again. Another local event with free entry and lots of amazing traders. Come say hi!

Sharing is caring 😈🤘🏻
