Hm… Is it Halloween or Christmas?

It’s a bit of a happy accident… I had no idea that Design Team Member Shannon Cooper was finishing her Mini Potions and Herbology Cabinet — and I have a number of bottles back in stock today!
But before we talk new (or back in stock) items: let’s looks at this amazing little cabinet!
Here’s some intro text from Shannon’s blog post:
Hallowe’en is creeping up, I can feel it in the air! Actually, it is still suffocatingly hot here so maybe it’s just wishful thinking. But that doesn’t mean Hallowe’en crafting has to wait! I made a potions cabinet from a 4″ x 4″ Storage Hutch, but left off the top scalloped portion and used it by itself vs. attaching it to a set of drawers. So maybe it is more like a potions cubby. Whatever it is, it held a whole bunch of stuff!
A whole bunch of stuff is right! Beside being filled to overflowing with tiny bottles & jars & magic books, Shannon did a wonderful job aging everything to look well-used (and frankly grungy).
Read more in Shannon’s blog post. And/or see her expansive supply list (all those tiny bottles)!
