The Speechless Bard ✨

@spielessen.bsky.social is less than a week away! Before our hectic packing, driving, unloading and setting-up starts, here is a map of where to find us 🗺️ Hall 1 (right after the original entrance of the convention hall), booth 1E310. And we'll be together with @diceoven.bsky.social! #spielessen

Day 1 of SPIEL in Essen is underway. And we're easy to find in Hall 1! ✨ #spielessen #ttrpg #gamesconvention

Come to our booth at SPIEL (1E310) and check out the glory that is our Galaxy Conjurer DM screen with gold inlay on both sides ✨ Handmade out of real leather, lightweigth, easy to swap panels and full of handy magnets 🧲 #ttrpg #dmscreen #spielessen

Don't forget to come by our booth at SPIEL in Hall 1 (1E310) to see our new DM screen designs! We've brought one of the new Lorien designs in brown, and one in green with gold inlay 🌿 #ttrpg #dmscreen #lorien

We got the request to make a custom mini DM screen, half the size of our normal screens. It looks so cute next to it's big papa Hastur 🖤 #ttrpg #dmscreen #hastur #kinginyellow

Also just in time for SPIEl: some dice cups! We're experimenting with the colours and designs, just to see how the visitors will react to them 💬 #ttrpg #dicecup #würfelbecher #spielessen2026

I fear I’ve cooked

Finished just in time to bring to SPIEL, it just needs a name... #cosmichorror #ttrpg #dicetray

More prep work for SPIEL underway 💪 #spielessen #smallbusiness

Should we do another fancy dress day at SPIEL this year? We all looked so smart together with @diceoven.bsky.social 🧐 #spielessen

We're brining a new double Wyrm DM screen with us to SPIEL 🐉 Thanks to the connectors that snap on and off, you can choose for yourself of the two wyrms face each other or look away 👀 #ttrpg #dmscreen #wyrm #dragon

Pretty sure Lilly and Jim are not in a happy sandwich 🐉 #ttrpg

95 hours of my Dartmoor inspired moorland scene are done! This is the last full update you'll see of this aerial embroidery until its complete now, maybe 20 more hours? I've decided the tor-based area of the landscape will be sloped so I need to work on the little hill :) 1/2

A recent custom Festival Pouch: painted in the same teal colours as the customer's dress, with a copper tinted inlay and custom centre illustration to match their entire outfit ✨ #leathercraft #pouch #costumedesign

We've got a brand new DM screen design coming with us to SPIEL 🌿 After meeting so many LOTR fans in Germany, we couldn't come back without something special for them. This painted and gold inlay version will be one of a kind, so find us quick to see it in person ✨ #ttrpg #dmscreen #lotr

Photography time for the DM screens that we're bringing to SPIEL next week 📷 #ttrpg #dmscreen

Finishing up a bunch of Commander Deck pouches for #MtG fans visiting us at @spielessen.bsky.social. Since we recently convinced a friend to learn the game simply by building a sparkly unicorn deck, we're experimenting and bringing a soft pink deck pouch to the convention 🦄 #commanderdeck

Such a cutie 🪐 We have plenty of this lilac leather to paint with pastel tones and turn into Tarot, Commander or Festival pouches... Maybe we should just make this colour combo available in the shop? #tarot #pouch #leathercraft

Work on the new dice tray finally continues. Test no.1 with dual tone inlay (white and gray) on black leather. It needs some finetuning, plus we still need a name 🤔 #ttrpg #dicetray #cosmichorror #wip

We've been quiet for a while; the last minute ren faire in the rain was a tiring weekend 🥱 Prep work for SPIEL is underway, as are more passion projects!
