🖤🌿 'Swamp Defender' : the first piece to be finished (or nearly so) in a collection of Elemental themed home adornments. . . This piece is from the 'Earth' series of the Elemental collection . . ✨ & honestly, I'll probably be adding a few more Moss bits & bones to this before I deem her "ready".. these pieces design themselves, I just listen ✨ . . There will be four available for each element : #earthwindfirewater . . If all goes well the entire series will be available in March of 2022 . . . . . . . . #igatherthedead #gatherthedead #ethicalbonejewelry #vultureculture #witchyvibes #forestwitch #mossygoodness #foresttalisman #swampwitch #cottagecore #goblincoreaesthetic #paganart #heathenartist #elementalmagic #recycledmaterials https://www.instagram.com/p/CZF3ax7vjfp/?utm_medium=tumblr

22 years was a good long time, but my heart is still broken. It's a curious thing to willingly love these creatures who I am sure to outlive. Still worth it. Always worth it. . . I buried Miss Kitty in a flower pot with teasel + red clover & lupine seeds. . . In the spring I'll make Red Clover Tea from the plants growing on her grave. . . Next summer I'll unearth her & gather her skull back up to come inside. For now she feeds the bugs, worms & seedlings & gets to sit in the sun all day. . . . . If you would like to help us continue to give stray & rescue kitties long, happy lives please check out @riverhavenstrays . . . . . . #petburial #petmemorial #death #igatherthedead #gatherthedead #funeral #mementomori #greenburial #grief #bonecleaning #boneprocessing #blackcatsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CRjlNwFhMfv/?utm_medium=tumblr
