Once Upon a Design

A boring afternoon can take an unexpected turn if we just make believe! The Looking-Glass above the mantle reflects the sitting room until the glass turns soft like gauze. In an instant, we can reach through the iridescent barrier and find ourselves in the Looking-Glass House where everything has been turned topsy-turvy. On this side of the mirror, paintings refuse to stay confined to their frames. Instead, painted teapots fill stacks of sketched teacups, and portraits converse with each other. Take a step through the Looking-Glass and let your adventure begin!

Notable design details:

  • Interior bottle opening: 10mm wide to fit a variety of writing instruments
  • Atop fanciful mantles stacked full of curiosities are royal portraits and Looking-Glasses soft enough to fall through!
  • A gallery wall that looks similar to one you know from home but somehow everything has turned topsy-turvy!
  • Some mirrors look very odd: instead of yourself staring back, you find yourself peering into an iridescent abyss
  • Mushrooms overgrow their frames, teapots fill their neighbouring teacups, and oh! Where did that little kitty come from?
  • Those roses still need painting! Thankfully, these frames are no match for this ladder!

Still she haunts me, phantomwise

If ever an ink could do justice to the sublime and terrifying beauty of Lewis Carroll's Wonderland, this would be it! I'm hard-pressed to even define the color, so moodily it changes and skips from place to place and from one angle to another. This ink's shade is much like Alice herself: ephemeral, curious, and a bit cheeky, relentlessly unable to be captured or pinned down (yet here at least, it can be PENned down? Ha!). More than anything, it brings to mind Carroll's poem, "A Boat, Beneath a Sunny Sky":

A boat, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July—

Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear—

Long has paled that sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.

Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.

Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.

In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:

Ever drifting down the stream—
Lingering in the golden gleam—
Life, what is it but a dream?
-----
I think my first project with this glorious ink will need to be this exact poem.

Lovely!

A glittery gray that is soft and shiny. I love it!

One of my favorites

Like the title states, this is one of my top inks. There's so much dimension thanks to the shimmer and sheen. A light grey blue with a red sheen and gold glitter dispersed throughout.
