Krystal, Live Dream Create
Krystal is the creator behind Live Dream Create. Largely self-taught when it comes to sewing, she makes plushies, toys, playsets, decor, and other fun items out of felt. The majority of her items are handsewn, and all are made one at time to ensure each item has it’s own personality!
More recently, she has begun exploring the world of decals and enamel pins. She is most known for her pop-culture, plur, and Pride themes. And, yes, Letterkenny is one of her favorite shows.
Helia
Helia is a multidisciplinary artist based out of central California. Though her formal education and training lies in painting, she started teaching herself the craft of stained glass in 2018 after a formative visit to the Winchester Mystery House spawned an instant fascination with its’ inherent warmth. The exceptional and intricately detailed work required for both skillsets provides an exquisite outlet for her endless curiosity, and an insatiable hunger to explore the potential of both mediums (and more!) keeps her creating in every way she can.
She works out of her home studio in Fresno, California and is mostly known for artwork that expresses the brevity of life and its’ inherent relationship to death and loss. As the Scorpio stellium (4; Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Pluto, to be exact) would lead you to believe, she is deeply inspired by artists like Artemesia Gentileschi & Caravaggio, nature hikes, Greek mythology, ideas of sexuality, so-called ‘taboos’, body acceptance, and the loving relationships she maintains with her partner and a few select intimates.
Brandon Kitchen
My name is Brandon Kitchen and I am from Akron, Ohio. Even though I have lots of creative sides, my main focus is crochet, which I got into a few years back. I got my associates degree in photography and even though I don't photograph for a living, I still carry my camera with me almost everywhere I go.
One of my favorite things about creating is getting to see people's reactions and excitement over my pieces. Not only is it motivating for me, but it brings a sense of satisfaction knowing that something I created with my hands is making someone else happy. It's also nice to know that my little ones are finding new homes all over the world, causing mischief. I make custom dolls and am always coming out with new ones. Enjoy!

With a degree in education and a passion for the natural world, she finds joy in designing to serve purposes in both aesthetics and learning. She also enjoys illustrating animals which may historically be unsettling for many people, and is subsequently on a quest to “make scary animals cute”, encouraging curiosity about these species.
LightBringer
LightBringer came alive out of necessity in my own practice.
There are so many unrepresented deities. I try to represent the unrepresented. As I made candles for myself people started to make special requests. One by one I would research the Goddess and then channel them through my alter. Now I am humbled to have had such a experience and to be a small part of others spiritual growth. I lovingly say I am spiritual middle management helping people reach out to their favorite Goddess.
Im a little biased. I think the LightBringer candles are beautiful and I put so much energy into them. But at the end of the day, they are wax and a string. As cliche as it may sound, the magic comes from inside of you. These are just tools to help you on your journey.
Who is your favorite deity?
Cat
I'm Cat, and my creative and spiritual journey began with a love for crystals, a gift from my grandparents. Their stories and rock shop ignited my lifelong fascination with gemstones. At 17, I crafted my first crystal bracelet, marking the start of my creative path.
As I evolved, I expanded into bouquets, wedding centerpieces, and natural wall art, always infusing my work with deep spirituality. In 2016, becoming a Reiki Master transformed my creations, adding new energy and intention.
Now, my focus is on crafting spiritual items, including crystal grids, sage fans, gourd rattles, hag candles, and crystal jewelry. Each piece is a vessel for healing and spiritual growth, resonating with Earth's treasures and universal energy.
My journey reflects family influence, the creative spark at 17, and a strong connection to spirituality. Through my art, I invite others to explore the wonders of the natural world and find solace in the spiritual realm. The story continues, evolving like gemstones, guiding towards inner harmony and creative expression.
