⚒️ Workshop Wednesday | A New Partnership 🎲

There’s a new merchant in town…

Houx’s Trading Post is officially a DM Stash Merchant! 🎉

We will spend today exploring the catalogue and working out which curious creatures, adventurers, monsters and treasures should make their way into the workshop first.

There are… a lot of options. 😂

So while the merchants make some very important decisions about what gets printed first, Lady Houx has retired to the tavern and left us to it.

We’re aiming to have our first collection of DM Stash miniatures available in the Houx’s Trading Post Etsy store and at our Trading Post market events by the end of October.

What should we print first? 👀

Curiosities await…

The merchants are preparing…

Lady Houx finally approved the business cards.

After much squinting, muttering and declaring "it needs more trading post", she's rather pleased with the result. ⚔️

A tip of the hat to Happy Prints for turning the vision into something worthy of the guild. Fine craftsmanship deserves recognition.

These little cards will be making their debut at our first fair on 15th November. Scan the QR code, step into the Trading Post or come and see the merchants at the Paddock, Canvey in November

Curiosities await.

⚔️ The dragon has awakened…

Our Dragon Scale Mail Gauntlets are now live in The Trading Post Etsy store!

Every scale is 3D printed, then individually crocheted in place to create a pair of fantasy-inspired scale mail gauntlets that are as practical as they are striking.

🔥 Available now in:

Ember
Obsidian

Medium is currently in stock (fits most adventurers!).

⚒️ Workshop Wednesday | Forging Dragon Scale Gauntlets 🐉

From filament to forge...

These gauntlets began as 144 individual 3D printed scales, each one individually crocheted into place before becoming a wearable pair of dragon scale gauntlets.

Sometimes the best magic isn't cast… it's crafted. ✨

Would you wear Obsidian or wait for the upcoming Ember colourway? 🔥

🎲 Monday Loot Drop!

A fresh delivery of polyhedral dice has landed at The Trading Post…

These colourful little beauties are just one of the treasures making their way into our upcoming Mystery Orbs 👀✨

We're not giving away all the secrets just yet… but trust us, they're going to be packed with adventure.

Which dice set would you be hoping to discover? 🎲💜

🎲 Adventure Log #4: The Easter Replay 🐣

The table is set, the map is loaded, and this afternoon we're introducing MIL to our family's very first campaign.

Will they rescue the Golden Egg and save the Spring Festival?
Will they defeat the giant snake?
Why is there a chicken?
And most importantly… will the DM actually be able to read her own notes? 🤣

Chief Dice Roller Squeak is on standby. Wish the party luck!

🍂 Friday Feature | Hooded Cowls 🍂

As the mornings turn cooler, these handcrafted hooded cowls are ready for autumn adventures.

Designed to sit comfortably beneath a jacket without the bulk of a traditional scarf, they're perfect for teens and petite adults who love cosy, practical layers with a touch of cottagecore charm.

✨ Available now in the Houx's Trading Post Etsy store — link in bio.

Which would you choose: Autumn Harvest 🍁 or Twilight Heather 💜?

⚒️ Workshop Wednesday

A rather satisfying sound from the forge this morning... 🐉

155 dragon scales fresh off the printer, ready to become the next pair of dragon scale gauntlets. Sometimes the best part of the workshop is simply listening to them tumble through your hands.

Now the real magic begins. ✨

Roll the wagons out… 🍂

The Trading Post is getting ready for the autumn markets.

New table dressings are making their way from far-off merchants, stock take has been completed, and the workshop list is somehow getting longer instead of shorter. ⚔️

Now comes the fun part: bringing the stall to life… and somehow fitting an entire travelling curiosity shop into the Zafira.

She's considerably less mystical than a horse-drawn wagon, but she does have significantly more horsepower. 🚗✨
Curiosities await…

📜 Adventurer's Log 3: The Cleric's Birthday 🎂🎲

This weekend's quest was a successful one...

✨ Printed a brand new treehouse dice tower
🍏 Baked an apple crumble cheesecake that disappeared surprisingly quickly
⚔️ Gathered the party for an afternoon of D&D while the kids ran gloriously wild

No closer to discovering who murdered poor Dave, Lady Houx's useless brother is still missing (and somehow still Lord of the Manor), but we've uncovered a few more clues...

A pretty perfect birthday, if you ask me. 🖤
