I forged a chef’s knife. She’s the most beautiful knife ever. It was super cool and very hot! The forge and kiln are 1400 plus degrees! . It took 9 hours of work. Trying to add maximize my skill set. One day I’ll make a sword!
The Scary Godmother has also conjured up some magic to cast into these candles she’s crafted! Check them out at www.thescarygodmother.com Everyone could use a little boost in their daily intentions!
The Scary Godmother has crafted a spell for you and your loved ones and I’ve made it into a print! If you weren’t able to get one at C2E2 and you need a bit of magical whimsy, you can get one (and other spooky goods) here- www.thescarygodmother.com
Your brain might need a moment of whimsy. Mine sure does. Here’s OberonCat enjoying the sun and a tiny snowman.
Feeling the need to post something lighthearted. So, a Yule log cake I made a few weeks back for the birthday gathering of my sword guild. Chocolate sponge cake, cannoli filling with blood orange jam, whipped chocolate ganache buttercream, meringue mushrooms, sugared rosemary and cranberry garnish.
Support small businesses (like me) for handmade, unique gifts for giving your favorite creatures this Yule season!These items are in my shop right now and new and different things will be available on Monday! www.thescarygodmother.com
It’s my birthday, so I donned my Autumnal Crown to bestow magic, love and whimsy upon you in this dark but beautiful Novermber. Be strong, be brave. Cultivate your vibe! Big hugs, all! #birthday #autumn #jillthompson

Happy Halloween from The Scary Godmother and all the dearly departed on the Fright Side!!
For those that need to add to their cherished treasures or treat yourself to a little luxury, Bug-A-Boo plush backpacks are back in stock at www.thescarygodmother.com
The Blood of Dragons pie I made for my neighborhood block party last weekend. It was pretty excellent if I do say so myself.
I love a good thunderstorm but it would be nice if my National Weather Service could accurately report the weather like it used to before the horsemen of the apocalypse of this administration.
Check out the next issue of FML from @darkhorse.com written by @kellysue.bsky.social with a variant cover by me! #darkhorsecomics #jillthompsonart
This weekend I made a bonfire cake for a bonfire party. It was black cocoa cake with a vanilla and orange/malort (for my millenial pals…I’m not normally a fan of that particular potion, but I liked this a lot!) cream filling with chocolate buttercream icing and vanilla flames.
If you’re going to C2E2 next week-look for me in Artist’s Alley table Y-9! Get all the spooky things from Scary Godmother’s House! Signed books, prints and new- protection candles!
In the Night Kitchen at The Scary Godmother’s House…first attempt at cinnamon pecan rolls…
OberonCat has been enjoying his Great British Baking Show and Severance.
Why do I have to do this to simply use the US Post Office? I ship things I make yet they want to big brother something that worked fine for me before. Citizens and small businesses, what are your thoughts?
In The Night Kitchen at The Scary Godmother’s House….My first attempt at milkbread danish. Flavors are sweet Goat cheese with various jams. There’s a couple raspberry, gooseberry, blood orange marmalade and a couple pistachio cream and a couple of lemon curd.
Multiple parking lots and a stream of cars full of people who also won’t get inside to see Bernie. This actually gives me hope. Show up on Saturday ,too, Wisconsin!
