Happy New Year! 🥳 Ok so I’m early with the celebrations but I’m already excited about markets in 2026. The first couple of months are shaping up nicely with more to be announced soon (more events can be found on the website under ‘Where To Find Us’). Wishing you all a safe and loving New Year’s Eve

Hoping many of you managed a restorative festive week! Mine was largely spent being ill and wiped out, but today I’m finally on the turn so will be popping into the workroom to chip away at the pouring queue. Thanks so much to folks who’ve continued to order during what is normally a quiet time 🥰

It may not even be Christmas yet, but we’re already prepping for our next event Birmingham Bizarre Bazaar on January 10th! The new year brings an exciting change as BBB moves from Sundays to Saturdays, so join us at the Nightingale Club to beat those New Year blues.

UK folks: anyone ordering from now until midnight Sunday 21st will get a free upgrade to ‘Tracked 24’ Royal Mail to ensure pre-Christmas arrival on ready-to-ship items! I have quite a few wreath toys ready to ship too, before these disappear off the site.

In-person markets are wrapped for 2025! Thanks immensely to all the folks that have bought toys or taken business cards to share with friends. The markets have played a big part in keeping Tentickle afloat. I will soon be updating the ‘Where to Find Us’ page with 2026 events 👀

Happy Halloween you spooky fiends! I had to admit defeat this year as far as Halloween plans, both business and personal, due to burn out and injury. But that’s ok because I’m excited about the impending 5th anniversary of the shop! Wishing you midnight creepers a fun-filled weekend 🎃 👻

We are about to dive into a market-heavy month, starting with Birmingham Bizarre Bazaar on November 16th as part of the big annual Birmingham Fetish Weekend! It’s always a pleasure to trade at BBB, but November’s event is that bit extra and always a joy 🤩

Apologies if you’ve noticed a slight delay in the usual turnaround for pouring/shipping made-to-orders in the past 2 weeks. I ran out of silicone for half a week and this week have been poorly. Packed orders today but didn’t make it to the Post Office 🤒 (Pretty made-to-order pics as consolation 💚)

Apologies for the radio silence - I’m on day 4 of watching horror/sci-fi all day at a film festival! Normal service resumes on Monday. In the meantime, enjoy some pretty pours currently available in the Lab shop 👇

Minotaur and Mimic by @bardtoys.bsky.social, Phobos by @xenocatartifacts.bsky.social, and the latest addition Wölfing by @tentickletoys.bsky.social Showing Wölfing some love since I haven't found any photos of this size (monstrous!) online ❤️
