Is there another disease that has touched so many Is there another disease that has touched so many lives? Are you a survivor? The loved one of a survivor? Someone going through it right now, or trying desperately to be a good friend to someone who is? Tell cancer what you really think about it (https://www.haldecraft.com/products/f-ck-cancer-mug). 

Currently in stock are pink (breast cancer), gray (brain cancer), and lavender (all cancers, caregivers, and cancer survivors); if you have a specific color you're interested in (teal for cervical cancer, blue or brown for colon cancer, etc) drop me a line, I'm happy to take custom orders.

Let's talk texture this week! Today? Stone and woo Let's talk texture this week! Today? Stone and wood! My favorite (no surprise) is the wood roller, although the wood matt predates it in my studio by a few years. Then there's a brick, a cobblestone, and two that I just recently got, another stone one, and one for wood planks. I looked for about two years before finding that wood plank one, let me tell you. I've had this idea for a series of abandoned houses or buildings as planters (so it looks like the plant is growing up out of the collapsed roof of the building) and not being able to find a plank texture has been holding me back. Yes, I could draw lines on the wood pattern, but it would be so obvious that they were just lines, with the grain being continuous throughout. A lot of these are only good for smaller pieces, just because of the size of the matts... but when I need them, I really need them!
