Yes, everything in my shop is handmade by yours truly. I put my heart and soul into every painting, chainmail piece, oddity display, and leather piece that I do. Any products not created by me would be explicitly labelled as such.

My general policy is no refunds*. Many of my products are fragile and while I do my best to package them safely, I am not personally responsibly for any damages done during shipping. That being said, please feel free to contact me to find out if your situation qualifies for full or partial refund. Refunds and returns will NOT be accepted if you simply changed your mind about your product.

In most instances, the best I can provide is advice on how to repair damaged items and/or a discount on a future purchase if applicable.

**Refunds may be contingent on the return of the damaged or unwanted product at the buyer’s expense.

Sadly, I do not have a brick and mortar store. In addition to my online shop, I also attend events regularly in Wichita/Kansas area, even extending into Oklahoma, Missouri, and sometimes Denver. View my Upcoming Events page to see where I will be next!

As long as I can remember. I got serious about art around the 5th or 6th grade and have been pursuing it ever since. Creating has always been a lifelong passion.

I started collecting bones when I was around 16 by collecting bones I found outside as well as collecting local roadkill and processing it in my parents’ backyard. For more information on beginning your vulture culture journey, consider subscribing to my Patreon for as little as $1 a month.

I collect almost all of my bones myself/acquire them from local farmers. Occasionally, I will purchase or trade for bones from trusted sources, but my bones are always obtained as ethically and as sustainably as possible.

I never take live butterflies from the wild. If an already-dead butterfly is found or brought to me, I will absolutely use it, but most of my butterflies are purchased from a trusted butterfly farm that aids in breeding insects to support butterfly populations.

Wet specimen are samples of biological tissue or whole animals that have been preserved with a fixative and then stored in a permanent liquid solution in a jar or other container. Wet specimen are amazing educational tools used for studying, dissection, and other scientific purposes. These specimen are permanently preserved. Most specimen are stored in at least 70% isopropyl alcohol once they have been fixed. Use this to refill your specimen should its liquid ever need replacement.

*All wet specimens are shipped without fluid and will need to be filled with at least 70% isopropyl alchohol upon receipt.

Mummies are dried or dehydrated specimens, either whole or in part. Mummified specimens have all their bones and organs still intact, just dried out and preserved. To learn how to mummify, consider subscribing to my Patreon for as a little as $1 a month.

The only preservation options I offer are wet specimens, mummification, and bone collection/articulation. At this time, I am not trained in traditional taxidermy.

Chainmail is armor or jewelry made by connecting, or weaving, metal rings to one another. Each of my chainmail pieces starts as individual rings that I take hours to weave together to create jewelry and accessories. All of my chainmail is made with lightweight anodized aluminum rings.

I do my best to make my jewelry hypoallergenic. My earrings are always made with nickel-free earring attachments, but reach out to me about sterling silver options for an extra fee. Anything that is sterling silver will be labelled as such.

My chainmail jewelry is made from anodized aluminum, which is hypoallergenic. I do also wash all of my chainmail before selling, but it is possible that residual grease from production may remain on them. Those with very sensitive skin should use their best judgement when purchasing my jewelry.
