Pocketfuls are back! Help me raise some funds? :D
Hello again, Teenycom! I would love to make you a Pocketful! And I'd really like to raise some funds to pay vendor fees at upcoming craft fests around town. Care to kindly order up a Pocketful and help me out a little? :)
What is a Pocketful, you ask? It's an upcycled matchbox, jam packed with little trinkets and fun things, and decorated all over with love! Tell me your character's favorite things, a bit about their personality, or whatever else you'd like me to know about them, and I will theme a Pocketful around your character! It will even have a small picture of them either on top, or inside!
Just $10 including shipping in the USA!
(note me for overseas shipping please. :))
I can make you a Pocketful based on not only an OC, but on pretty much any theme you can think of! Either way, every last inch of the Pocketful is themed 100%! They make nifty gifts, or they can just take up a small spot of your work space and brighten your day a little!
A whole album of examples can be found on my shop's Facebook page -or-
^This one's filled with happy and frilly little things, reflecting the joyful adoption of a little girl OC into her new family, and the thorough spoiling she became the subject of. ^_^
^This one's a bit simpler, reflecting the personality and lifestyle of a guy who never had much to begin with, and then lost it all. There's a small, damaged portrait of his brothers, as if found in the remains of the home he once knew. There are natural things reflecting his hope of restoring the land he grew up on. I've even created his walking stick in miniature.
^This one is a pocketful of summertime fun for a guy who loves the beach! Imagine opening this when you need a breath of fresh, salty air. You can almost hear the gulls calling and the waves lapping at your feet!
^A similarly themed one - annnnnd -
^A night time version! :)
^This one is based around a lovely, regal, deerlike OC. She's a creature who appreciates the finer things in life, shining gems and bits of silver, as well as the more ephemeral beauty of bones and skulls. It's a little box of magic, reflecting her mysterious beauty and nature.
^OC Pocketful - Mr. China, belonging to Digimitsu over on dA. His little ward, Aiya, is inside, along with some miniature Mah-Jong (sp?) tiles. I forget what the symbols mean specifically, but I did look them up and tie them into his back story as best I could. ^_^ There are a few wisps of spirit as well as one of the tags that hold his spirit inside. (The way I understand it, it works sorta like a spell.) I added a vintage Chinese postage stamp I happened to have, too. :)
^A pocketful of the romantic beauty of the Victorian age. Open it and step back in time to the days of elegant balls, sculpted gold and marble, and lavish hairstyles and jewelry.
^Pocketful of Halloween! Lovingly created for someone who would prefer to have her favorite holiday be every single day of the year. With this little collection of all things creepy, spooky, and autumnal, she can have Halloween close at hand any time!
^Chocolates and jewelry, hearts and flowers, x's and o's! It's a tiny box full of that huge emotion called love. Happy Valentines Day - Any day! :)
^A Pocketful of SPAAAAAACE!! The final frontier never looked so finite. ;) The perfect way to travel whole galaxies without ever leaving the comforts of home.
^Speaking of the comforts of home... Aaahh how warm and relaxing! <3 This box houses a tiny tea (or coffee) cup, and a miniature book I made myself. There's some nice relaxingly scented incense sticks, some Tarot cards, since the person this little slice of home was for is a reader of those. Teddy bears are always good for providing warm cuddles and comfort - on the back of that bit is a little teacup, from an old Starbucks gift card. A perfect Pocketful to help it's owner feel right at home whenever they open it! :D
^For the Great Cat Lover. <3 Some paw prints from an old pet toy, lovely feline imagery (the one on the cover is from a really old book). A vintage wooden bird to catch the cat's fancy, and a sweet kitty cabochon. :) Oh and of course, a little milk, hehe. :)
^And finally... Arrr matey! High flyin' miniature adventures on the high... uh... puddles? Raindrops? A teeny tiny little box of all things PIRATE! There's an eyepatch, some pillaged gold, a mean looking tattoo, and seashells, the spoils of the sea herself. Oh, not to mention your own little jolly roger to fly with pride. :D
That's a whole lot of joy for a very tiny price! :D Your kind commission will help greatly to defray the upfront costs of setting up vendor space at local shows this holiday season. My goal right now is about $370, and every little bit helps. Thanks!!
Hope you like them! I can't wait to make you one. :D
