I am not realizing fully yet, so many extraordinary artists 😱 ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I will work my butt off this year! ✊

(French below 👇)

Inks!

I have a gorgeous Blue Pea ink, a rich granulating Walnut brown and a real dark Alder

Please read 🙏

For combined purchases, I can send them in those gorgeous metal boxes, round for small orders or rectangular for bigger ones but, especially for people in the US, it will push the shipping into parcel zone and not letter.. so it will be up to you 🙂

I will look at all the shipping costs tomorrow but remember, like the last two years, I paypal refund the extra shipping that can occur while piling up orders when I actually ship 🤘

Otherwise, I have tons of bubblewrap and waterproof enveloppes 🤷‍♀️😁

I plan on posting pictures, prices of everything available on tuesday evening (europe) so you can read and choose before I open the Lab on wednesday evening (europe)

I looooove boooooxes !!!!!! 😭❤️

=========================

Encres!!

J'ai une tres belle encre de Clitoria ternatea, un brun roux granuleux de noix, et un super noir d'Aulne.

Lisez svp 🙏 surtout si vous pensez acheter qqchose pour la premiere fois :

Pour les achats combinés, je peux tout envoyer dans une de ces super boites en metal ❤️ Ronde ou rectangulaire suivant ce que je dois caser dedans mais attention si vous etes aux US, cela va faire passer le shipping en petit paquet, plus de 3cm d'epaisseur 🤷‍♀️. Cela sera a votre choix! J'ai de tte facon un stock de papier bulle et d'enveloppes etanches.

Rappelez vous que lorsque vous faites des achats combines, les frais de port peuvent s'accumuler. Comme pour les dernieres annees, je rembourse tjrs l'excedent au moment de l'envoi! 🙂

Je vais poster la liste et les prix de tout ce qui est dispo demain soir mardi (europe) . Vous aurez le temps de regarder, lire et choisir avant l'ouverture du Lab/boutique le mercredi soir! (8pm europe) 😁

Packing... packing...

Second picture is all the colours I made this month, add 3 walnut inks, one alder black ink and the Blue pea... Nearly done 🤘

top to bottom, left to right :

Finishing the whole assortment of mini sets, pans etc made with my overstock of pigment :) I principally make them for me but it's the third year I am selling the overstock and I am having way too much fun with the packaging 😁

Here you have RedCabbage blue, a cool green made with red cabbage and hazelnut, pict of the adorable small boxes of some mini sets and a few shots of the ring palettes that will come with each order because they are way too cute 🥰

it is on my website 😁 There is a "Lab/Shop" tab but don't worry, when everything is online I will add the link to my posts! ❤️

😁 So I will open the shop on Wednesday November 30th 8pm (European time- that's 7pm UK, 2pm East, 6am Dec1st Australia 😬)

Exactly at the same time my Beyond Everyday Original goes online btw 😎 Spend accordingly 😏

Please read! 👇

But : I will upload over two or three days, no need to rush! The rare pigments will be marked as "rare" and the pigments getting refills will be mentioned as well (thinking about Hyacinth) AND you can always message me to reserve sets or even ask for special sets, I'll see what i can do as always 😬

Not a lake but a reddish ink of chrysanthemum and pelargoniums reduced on a neutral filler, hence the gorgeous pink colour ❤️

Garden red , mostly chrysanthemum and pelargoniums

Althea syriacus green

Clitoria ternatea blue ❤️

aaaaand do as I say and not as I do, this is what happens when you mess with pH without checking (effing cotinus 😑 ) #fuckaroundfindout

Just waiting for the hyacinths to finish blooming and I will have my last lake before updating the shop 🤘
