WanderBound Apothecary

Some lil octopus works in progress 🫧

Added a little something at the bottom and it's done! 🕯️✨

A peek at one of my new bottles!
I'm shocked at how well the clay mimics wax 🕯️took me a while to get it right, but was worth the effort for sure!

I'm finally moving this weekend!
Very excited to get my work space set up again so I can get back to makin' things ✨🙌🦇

Finally got around to some rebranding - I've been wanting to find a name for my little apothecary that I was really happy with, and I finally settled on 'WanderBound'!
I made myself a little logo too 💚

Hahaha it's very funny, I'd compare it to ready player one (book not film!!) in terms of references and self-awareness

We also have a few new accessories coming in tonight's update:

- Mimic Dice Potion | Made in collaboration with @roos-apothecary.bsky.social, their gorgeous handcrafted mimic bottle hold 6d4 of our dice in a special shard shape

I'm reading DCC at the moment! Just started it

Hehehe I love that

Another from this year, this one is an all-time favourite of mine. (Even if I had to remake the snail like three times...) 🐌
I'm desperately trying to find more small jars like this one, I just love the shape so much!

Jackalopes have become a bit of a staple for me, I've made a couple of variations on this bunny-tail bottle and each one ends up so different to the last - It's fun to see how designs like this change and improve over time. 🐇
Can't wait to see what the next iteration looks like!

I thought I'd reminisce about some of my favourites that found new homes this year! ✨
These octos were a bit of a fun test - 'can I get them to look like they're reaching into their bottles and still be sturdy and sealed?'
I was really happy with the result and will be trying more like it for sure!

I don't understand why people think it's a platform that gives you correct information without fail? It's designed to SOUND like it knows what it's talking about - at school we were told never to blindly believe Wikipedia, this is that but so much worse 🫠

This looks like it was so much fun to paint <3

Welcome to my little apothecary! I'm Roo, I create decorative potion bottles and other related curios. I've recently started creating jewellery and pins too.

I have plans to open an online store very soon, and have plans to visit many more markets in 2026 so watch this space for updates!
