Description

...This is the solstice, the still point
of the sun, its cusp and midnight,
the year’s threshold
and unlocking, where the past
lets go of and becomes the future;
the place of caught breath, the door
of a vanished house left ajar...
 
Margaret Atwood, Eating Fire: Selected Poetry, 1965-95

The optional Stonehenge charm was designed by The Head Librarian, 3D printed, and hand painted and accented.

Notes on Scent
I wanted to evoke something earthy and wintry, but also ancient and still. The wintergreen adds the bright bitter cold notes, and the tobacco is warm, smoky, and promise of greener days ahead.

Notes on Texture
A Library of Slime special! This is a thick and lush white glue slime with lots of stearic acid incorporated, which makes it far less dehydrating than other textures.

Notes on Book Charm Cover
I invented a fictional non-fiction book about how ancient peoples interacted and responded to the yearly cycle, and slapped my pen name on it.
