This is the final part of my DIY UV light box build... sort of. Today, I'm assembling all of the panels and installing the LED light strip.

It's important to have all of the parts you need prior to starting a project like this. Nothing a rotary tool, soldering iron, and a "This is fine. :|" attitude can't fix, though!

This is part 4 of my custom UV light box build.

All of the acrylic paint marker techniques I've learned so far are coming together to make this eclipse landscape panel. Sadly, I was unable to find the creator who posted the mountain range tutorial. If you happen to know what video I'm referencing/who the creator is, please let me know so I can credit them here!

Final panel and full build coming soon!

Today, I'm using acrylic paint markers to make a skull design.
I finally conquered my fear of ruining the brush tips by blending wet colors together (yay)

New year, new slay 🪓🩸
Hack and slash your way into the New Year with a brand-new earring drop inspired by an iconic horror classic. My new Bloody Axe dangle earrings are perfect for horror fans who prefer accessories with an edge. 😉

This design was a long time coming, and I'm so happy with the final results! Check out the D3D shop to place your order, or contact me if you have any questions prior to ordering. I'm always happy to answer questions.

Keep an eye out for more product drops next week!

These Peppermint Spider Christmas tree ornaments have been a hit! 🕷🍬 Thank you to everyone who has purchased one (or multiple!) or expressed interest in them thus far. While any new orders will not ship in time to arrive before Christmas at this point, these will still be available to order in my shop through the end of the season!

These ornaments have certainly kept me busy this month amidst the regular chaos of the holiday season. I haven't had the opportunity to stay on top of my other holiday designs as I hoped, but overall, this has been an excellent learning experience for how I need to schedule out my new releases going forward. I'll be taking the rest of this month to get my *many* ideas for early 2026 whipped up. Unfortunately, this means no new designs before the year ends 😭 but I'll still be producing all incoming orders as usual.

I have a LOT of fun designs planned for the upcoming year, and I can't wait to share them with all of you!
