Hannah's Creatures

02/06/2026

I have been inactive with posting recently but I’m still here. I’m navigating a patch of up & down health so I’m working on smaller things which will blend into the future of Hannah’s Creatures. Future? Nothing scary. I’ve learnt casting recently (something I’ve always wanted to learn) & I’ve enjoyed it so much that it’s going to become 2 ventures which will run alongside my taxidermy work. I’ve been casting bodies in bulk as I struggle with my wonky claws & carving so I’m trying to make my work more accessible to me. I’m also casting & using replica heads which give me more precision & no risk of anything being left in the head of a mount. I will be selling replica heads in a web shop in the near future for people to buy & use if they so wish of if you just want a replica of a bird noggin. I’m also going to be casting rocks,habitat,fish & reptiles which will also run along side the replica heads. We don’t have a huge supply of taxidermy components in the UK so I’m pushing the boat out a bit to offer some UK made supplies. I’m also going to be casting mammals,I will develop them alongside practicing mammal work, another thing I’ve wanted to get into.
Why am I doing all this? With fluctuating health & an NHS waiting list as long as the Lochness monster, it’s giving me the opportunity to work on things when I’m not feeling upto mounting birds. Being neurospicy,I stress over my work not being good enough which adds extra fatigue to my already tired brain & im a sucker for not wanting to put work in the fridge over night because I worry it’ll balls it up. Honestly,I hate my brain too.
I’m still taking on comissions but I’m doing them here & there when I feel level enough to mount them, I put my heart & soul into a mount & need to feel in the right place to put them together. If I do a freelance piece & it buggers up then it’s not the end of the world but a clients piece,big huge massive end of the world. So please don’t expect my turn around to be 3 days, if you want asap & done yesterday then please find an artist who has shorter books because I can’t guarantee & accomodate a quick turn around, I have to be kinder to myself & for the future 🔮

Just a quick one regarding Suffolk show 🍃

Unfortunately I’m not trading this year as I thought I was going to be off my feet for a few weeks so didn’t book anything in for 2026 but plans had other ideas. I plan to attend as a spectator on Thursday in all my spooky gothness as hubby is on the bonsai stand in the flower tent so go find him & point at his tiny trees over both days!
I hope to be trading at the 2027 show 💚

Welcome to my little bubble of gothic heaven 🖤

I present to you, Hannah’s Creatures - The Ravens nest.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock then you’ll know I’ve spent the past 6/8months having a studio built & then kitted out to my needs work wise. I came up with the idea to cut the new studio in half, half a sleek new big work shop & the other half a room where clients can drop off/pick up work but also a room that myself & my husband can use. Because of the new studio, I’ve fondly named it ‘the Ravens nest’ because I’m a dark creature who values things that others would see as worthless plus I really love Ravens. This is the room side,I will add further pictures & videos when I take ones that I’m happy with. It’s been decorated to feature all little things that mean a lot in my life & related to my personality. I have trinkets that clients have sent me as thank you’s aswell as little pieces that have their own place in my heart.
I’m hoping this post will highlight why I’ve been very sparse in replies, I’ve meticulously planned everything to work out into the vision in my head & I hope to welcome lots of people into the Ravens nest in the coming years 🖤

I’d like to wish you all a happy new year going into 2026.
In 2025, I started the year off fine but dealing heavily with grief,that then turned into exhaustion. In the midst of that,2 little green jellybeans hatched but weren’t being looked after by their parents so I stepped in & took over as mum from day 1. I didn’t expect them to make it as they were so young but they’re now coming upto 1 year old in may & I know how much joy my stories of the 2 gremlins have brought people. They’re very full of themselves,love cuddles but are also coming out the other side of bluffing. Sometimes I feel like they were sent to me as they were what I needed.
We moved house & honestly,I never want to move again but it did mean I upgraded my studio & I’m looking forward to welcoming clients to my little gothic paradise in 2026, trust me,it’s certainly going to be something special. I aim to be creating new pieces but also looking after me,I need to listen to my body after years of ignoring it. I’ve taken up wildlife photography as we live in an amazing pocket of wildlife,it’s nothing special but it’s something to keep my brain ticking over.
Whatever you’re doing at midnight (I plan to be snoring),I hope it’s a peaceful change of year & that 2026 is a better year than 2025 🔮

I’d like to wish all my followers & clients past & present a very merry Christmas.
This year hasn’t turned out the way I planned,stress & burn out put a stop to my creature creating for most of this year but after a Christmas break & some DIY projects with my hubby,I should be fighting fit & back to my usual self. I won’t be flat out with work, it’s not viable for me anymore to push myself,I have to be kinder to myself in 2026.
I appreciate every single one of you,even if you’ve not bought from me but simply followed along on my socials, I appreciate you & thank you for your company on this crazy train that is me. To past & present clients this year, thank you,you’ve been amazing when I’ve had to take a step back with work & understood & been patient with me whilst I’ve figured out a healthy work balance. I aim to create much more unique pieces throughout 2026 which I’m hugely looking forward to & I’m excited to show you the end results.
So on this Christmas Eve,I wish you a merry Christmas wherever you are in the world,I hope your day is peaceful,joyful & comfortable however you celebrate it 🖤

The third & final part of my birthday sale is this handsome long legged heron.
Again, collection from my studio in Felixstowe,Suffolk as I don’t trust normal couriers with cases, I may be able to quote for a specialist art courier.
This beautiful stabby bean was found dead during the beast from the east storm we had in 2018 hence the snowy habitat. I like my work to tell stories & this one fits him perfectly.
