Hello and welcome to my second September news bulletin! In case you missed it,
I will be releasing my Autumn '21 Collection Tuesday September 21st at 6pm
I love this time of year, and creating products inspired by Autumn has been so much fun. I can't wait for you all to see the full collection! In the meantime, I thought I'd share what I have so far.
Halloween masks are coming back!
These were so fun to make last year so I wanted to do it again this year, and do it earlier to make the most of Autumn. I have some of the same designs as last time (Puimcín, Púca) and some all new ones. My favourite is the Alien one (not pictured) Inspired by my recent binging of the X-Files.
As they are coming a bit earlier this year, I also included some Autumnal designs (Gourds, Autumn Flowers) for the less spooky outings. Very excited to show you them all!
I have a limited stock on them so it's first come first served. Some designs will be one offs, others will be made to order.
I'm working away on a few tote bags for this launch. I absolutely love the colours in the St Stephen's Green bag, it's a one off and I can't wait for it to go to a new home.
I also love the Gourd Bag. I'm trying to grow pumpkins in my garden this year and they're coming up in funny shapes. I spent too long trying to learn the name of gourds and squashes for the bag. I apologise if they're all wrong.
I've a couple of other paintings that definitely fit the Autumn feel, but they're not quite ready for pictures just yet.
On a final note, I just wanted to mention commissions. I am open to do custom masks, tote bags, paintings and drawings. You let me know what you want and I will see what I can do! It feels very wrong to mention Christmas now... but a personalised painting could be the ideal gift. Keep me in your thoughts anyway, and you can visit my gallery on my website to view my drawings, paintings and previous products to get some ideas.
If you do want to order something specific, send me a message on instagram, email me at rottenrougee@gmail.com or visit the commissions page on my website for more info. The graphic below sums it well in terms of prices etc.
So I think that's all I have to say for now, I hope you enjoyed reading this and I hope you're excited for September 21st! Be sure to follow me on instagram for more updates and to see more of the new collection. Stay safe!
