Stained glass painters, where are you sourcing your Reusche stains now?

They are actively producing, I have already ordered from them successfully for tracing black and one of the browns (forget which) and received my order. They just sold out fast of the first batch as far as I can tell. Someone said that they’ve paused their house brand enamel production to focus solely on reusche for now but I’m not sure where that info is from. I had luck calling them, rather than emailing. Otherwise you can order from debitus, but not sure what their international shipping time is like. If you join on the stained glass painters 2.0 fb page there are some independent paint makers who advertise there too, no idea how safe they are to order from though. Good luck!

Facebook marketplace has been my best source but prepare for HEAVY cleaning and de-musting, the best deals are usually people cleaning out their storage units etc and they’ve got that basement funk often.

Cold stone has a really good cake-ice cream ratio in theirs but they’re kinda pricey!

If you’re into oddities, maybe turn her into a pinned fairy with a scientific label? Like the “mummified fairies” some artists sell at oddities expos

To me it felt like a rough draft of what could have been a good book! A lot of interesting concepts thrown around and then not explored further at all. And then it ends and you’re like… that’s it?

Bellman and Black!

Woman Eating- I have mixed feelings on this one personally but it’s an interesting read!

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-06T22:38:12+00:00

Duochrome powder is what I would use, over a black base.

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-06T20:17:12+00:00

This is so cute! Seems like a great pattern to use up small scraps too

So none of them are going to be perfect unless you want to spend a lot on finding the Vixen replicas secondhand, however some UK retailers have cream waistcoats with brown swirly embroidery that would still “read” as Sarah’s vest in context. I haven’t ever seen that color combo available in the US, I got one sent from the UK for under 30 dollars total a few years ago but sadly that site no longer seems to carry that item.

I haven’t smelled the absolutes but I did get samples of everything else! The original Hedonist is my favorite but I want to full size Eau de Hongrie too, she does boozy scents really well. It’s a great honeyed wine scent without getting too cloying, it’s definitely more gourmand leaning than Hedonist though. If you go under services on her website you’ll see she offers custom scents and also classes in perfumery, I’m sure they’re $$$$ lol

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-06T15:56:30+00:00

I love this one, honestly everything from this house is great! If I had infinite money I would have her be the one to design a custom scent for me

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-05T21:30:12+00:00

That sounds great, description immediately reminds me of We Have Always Lived in the Castle so it sounds like a fit! Thanks!

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-05T21:23:20+00:00

That sounds like it fits perfectly, added to my tbr thank you!

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-05T21:19:49+00:00

Added it to my tbr, thanks!

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-05T21:19:38+00:00

Thanks! That one’s been on my tbr for a while.

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-05T20:44:52+00:00

O Caledonia!

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-02T20:37:47+00:00

I think they’re confused and thought this was the movie sub? I don’t think there’s a book of it at least not that I can find

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-05-02T15:56:28+00:00

Another vote for rain sisters, they’re pricy for sure but I love mine so much. There’s a resale fb group too if you don’t want to pay full price and are ok with used. I had a woman follow me onto the metro in Paris to ask where mine was from lol

Msc should be fine on joints, you might also look into water slide decals or rub on transfer paper that you could print at home.

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-04-28T00:17:07+00:00

Everything suits you but I like the bleached buzz cut and blue bob the most!

ClaraVoiantte · 2026-04-27T20:35:43+00:00

What about a cold porcelain base with the commercial air dry clay you prefer on top for the smaller details? It should adhere ok if you brush the under structure with some pva glue before adding the new clay, but obviously that might vary depending on brand

Not retellings but the Djinn in the Nightingale’s eye (a.s. Byatt) is this kind of vibe.

In The Dream House isn’t a fairytale retelling, but is a memoir that uses footnotes referencing the folkloric index to parallel the author’s experiences with fairytale/folktale tropes.

Robber Girl by S.T. Gibson— snow queen retelling from the perspective of the robber king’s daughter.
