The Legendary Skunk

❄️Happy holidays, everyone!
I’m taking the rest of the year off from content creation. My chronic illness has been kicking my butt lately (I’m okay! I promise!) In the meantime, do me a favor and head over to my website and sign up for email alerts. I will be sending an important email out soon before I release the information to YouTube. ❄️

Lastly I don’t know if I’ve fully introduced my scruffy mutt but this is Mac. He’s a 1.5 year old Pyrenees mix and his passion in life is testing my patience.

Hey there! Sorry for the delay in posting again. Sadly I’ve been having more flare up with my hEDS. I’m working with some great medical professionals to finally address and diagnose problems linked to my condition that I’ve had since I was a child. So, currently I am laid up in bed trying to create (basically retweak from one of my other doodles) an official chibli-like mascot for my business.

Did you know my store name is actually my nickname? Since the first day of High School, friends, family, teachers, and a few unoriginal bullies called me Skunk. Most individuals never even knew my first name. Meet the official Legendary Skunk: Skunksylvette. Swipe over to see the original Skunk (me) in high school pre-2010 😅

🌿 I’m trying to plan out some cozy cottagecore uploads of my new marimo color options and I’d love your input

Which option would you prefer the most?

1. You choose the color. I’ll make a video based on the top-voted marimo color each time and then show the options to choose from at the end for the next upload

2. Mood inspo videos: soft aesthetic marimo + cottagecore vibes maybe outfit to pair with. Idk yet

3. Post whatever feels right whenever inspiration hits

Let me know what you’d enjoy most 💚

Hey there! I just wanted to stop in to say thank you for the birthday wishes as well as address something important about my channel: I tolerate zero negativity.

I may not see it immediately but I read every single comment on each of my videos. While I’m not one to normally shy away from providing a good clap back, I choose to not interact with people on the internet that have nothing better to do than fuel their boredom with hate. I delete those comments. Technically those comments could help my channel because more people are willing to stand up to these rude comments and it feeds the algorithm as interactions but I don’t want to provide a safe place for toxicity. I will delete them and move on in life. Thank you for those who did stand up for me. It truly made me feel supported.

Why yes, I can multitask very well though I would prefer to not have to. 🥹

During the cooler months the natural lighting in my house is best in the worst possible place: at my work computer. ✨Manifesting my art studio one product photo at a time✨

And yes, those are clouds. That’s usually where my head is anyway.

I recently posted a video about my diagnosis of hEDS and with that in mind I had to make a decision to mostly discontinue my clay pebbles on account of the chronic pain from making them caused. If you go back far enough on TikTok (unless I deleted it) I posted a video about how I thought I had some off form of early stages of arthritis (I mean I’m 32 so I guess anything could happen) until I realized it was due to rolling out sheets and sheets of tediously small clay pebbles for my relaunch. 😅 Now I understand it’s because of hEDS causing my fingers to overextend. I have very few clay options remaining as I kept only the best sellers around (Stone and Silk) but have since received the newest editions to the marimo collection and I’m pretty much just waiting for a morning that’s not gloomy and raining to take some product photos for the website. Here’s to maybe getting around to posting more content soon.

Hey friend 👋
I’m feeling much better (sickness wise anyway 😅) and am working on coding the website for updates this week so maybe we can officially be back up and running by the next. Thanks for sticking with me!

Hi there! I’ve been meaning to upload some content but I fell sick after the market. Can’t tell if it was heat exhaustion or maybe I caught something but I’m coming back! I swear. It’s like everytime I try to pick myself up something tries to knock me back down. But that’s okay. Persistence and a little delulu goes a long way. ✨

Had a blast today vending with my bestie ‪@haleshangers‬ at the Enchanted Emporium.
Stay tuned for some market content.

That’s about all my brain can come up with. Convinced the heat melted my brain. 😅
