hi hello! it's been...a while... but I'm still here! I've been busy with medical school (as usual, lately 😅), but I haven't forgotten y'all nor my unfinished dice pile. I'm hoping my next rotation will be a little more conducive to creation, but time will tell. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

hey friends - my computer has been acting up and is now on its last legs. if you've been meaning to pick up some dice, I have a handful from the last drop now on sale to try to help offset new computer $. separately, I'm working through the polishing pile and hope to have some new stuff soon!

i think third year is going to be basically every post reassuring y'all I am alive, btw

hello I am not gone, merely busy working in the hospital! I just finished my pediatrics rotation and hope to make some headway on this pile awaiting polishing - send good vibes!!

I'm not dead, I'm just finishing my first clerkship! hoping to get a chance to work on some dice next week or the week after during my intersession

mint, since my mint plant is fighting for control of my garden with the salvia mint green with holo foil, fresh pull, wip. these are big sheets of foil, which led to some trapped bubbles that I quite like and are small enough not to affect how they roll #HandmadeDice

also pulled these little peach and gold treasures! clear resin with a mix of peach opal to coral/gold holo glittery micas. fresh pull, wip #HandmadeDice

love this big chonk - it's shaping up to be something special, I think. clear resin (yes, really!) with deep purple holo shift mica, a little bit of holo glitter, and rose gold foil. fresh pull, wip. #HandmadeDice

fresh pull - another Steel, Sword of the Citadel inspired vibe. clear resin with heavy swirls of two grey opal micas and Holo threads. wip, fresh pull. #HandmadeDice #twtwatwo

poured some dice for the first time in ages! clear resin with a bunch of holographic glitters and pale gold foil, swirled with sky blue mica. wip fresh pull. #HandmadeDice

happy trans day of visibility! to all of my siblings, out or not, I see you and I'm glad you're here. the world is better with you in it. I'm glad to have this community with you. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

test is delayed, turns out knowing everything that could happen in the human body from conception to death on a molecular level is hard?? anyway part of the delay is that I can take a little breather and then refocus, so perhaps we'll see some polishing happen soon.

if you see this, quote post with your green art!

hi hello! I am alive! I will be mia for the rest of the month due to this whole becoming a doctor thing. I haven't forgotten about my giveaway (it's ready to polish and ink!), just no time. I miss y'all and will return asap, just have to pass step 1 of the US medical licensing exam, nbd...

oh this suddenly happened! well, I'm SWAMPED at school for the next couple of weeks, so it'll be a little bit delayed...if y'all can get me to 1k before I'm ready I'll do a double giveaway

these are the only set left from the last restock and frankly I've never poured a more valentine's day themed set, if you're looking for something sparkly to give your romance partner

okay I'm deeply annoyed with big cartel again and considering moving my shop. I'm very small and don't sell a ton, and frankly kinda hate the duopoly of squarespace and shopify, but it might be time. ughhhhhhhhhhhh. if kofi included integration on your own host that would be ideal. suggestions?

watermelon, though not on purpose - I really thought the glitter was going to do a more defined bloop here but instead it dispersed. still like them! red (almost pink) transparent resin with red/black flaky glitter and red/gold shift glitter, wip.

can you believe this is still not sold?? me neither!

and sometimes you have your own space and mailing list (that you have to have found my site to join anyway) and then the mailing list host folds and then what? social media is critical to the mild success I've had, because it's a place people can consistently see my stuff!

This had been what's bothered me so much about the "just have your own space!" advice, especially in recent days. You *should* have your own site but someone has to know your space exists to visit. To ignore social media's role in that is to ignore the habits of people & their content consumption.

inky depths or fey poison? clear resin with a few holo glitters and gold foil, swirled through with deep teal ink, wip, fresh pull

currently calling these Sword of the Citadel same clear base with glitter as the gold set (I know!!), with steel grey and the deepest, darkest navy micas, wip #HandmadeDice

also! verified my domain (it was easier than I feared)

little bit of sunshine. clear resin with holo flaky glitter swirled with gold and gold/pink/purple opal micas, plus copper holographic threads. wip, fresh pull. #HandmadeDice

opal time!!!!! clear resin with a little bit of holo glitter around a mineral oil core with real kyocera opals - this colour is called moonstone and I'm really delighted by the grey to rainbow flash!

I have a beautiful piece from Casey - you can't go wrong here!

really happy with how these came out!! clear resin with my favourite micro glitter and and bloops of gold and a purple holo shift mica that does a lot of gold flash around my favourite opal foil. wip. #HandmadeDice

SHOP NOTICE: I've been struggling to write the words, but sadly ArasSivad.com will be going offline as of 12/31. It's been a wild ride and I'm grateful for all of you. Until then, take 50% off my RTS shop, no code needed. US orders $100+ get free shipping, too. 💖✨

made a new mold for my new little numbers chonk and the test pour came out great!

still in the shop, tragically

Was just followed by "The Witch Coven" account (the one with this weird AI logo), and wanted to add some info for fellow makers.The price of their "fully handmade/polished" dice sets is around $15 and they have openly stated in their kickstarters that anyone charging more is a rip off. Instant Block
