2018 Icefall Studio ornament auctions

I have a small art business, Icefall Studio, and make hand-painted Christmas ornaments. Normally they’re only available from me at local shows, but this week is Trim Your Tree, my annual online sale/auction with Ellen Million Graphics!

We run this event through Facebook, but this year I’m making this post available so people can participate without needing a Facebook account. If you are on Facebook, it’d be preferred if you bid/buy at the Facebook Trim Your Tree event to keep it in one place, however!

To bid or buy – leave a comment on this post saying what you want. You can bid/buy as many auctions as you like, as long as you are prepared to pay for them if you win them. If you bid here, I will update the Facebook posts for you.

This post only shows my auctions, not Ellen’s! Ellen has many more ornaments available. To see all of them, go to the Facebook event.

Here is a direct link to my auction album on Facebook.

Click on each item to see pictures. It will take you to Facebook, but you should be able to see the pictures without being logged in; there is a pop-up asking you to log in, but just click “not now” to make it get out of your way. Please let me know if this doesn’t work and I will provide alternate pictures!

A Shifter Agents Christmas story

This takes place after Guard Wolf and before Dragon’s Luck.

“Hey man, you gotta help me.”

Avery Hollen blinked at the computer screen sliding in and out of focus in front of him, and turned his bleary, sleep-deprived gaze on the rangy figure that had leaned a hip on the corner of his desk. Jack Ross was wearing his usual beat-up leather jacket and jeans, but under the jacket he had on a festive sweater with snowflakes on it. He also had a plastic holly sprig pinned to his collar and was holding a steaming mug shaped like the lower half of Santa: belt, boots, and red-clad buttocks. His wire-frame glasses gave him a deceptively mild demeanor; right now, with the sweater and the mug, he looked like an unusually ripped professor at a faculty holiday party.

As Avery stared at him blankly, Jack frowned. “Are you awake?”

“I’m totally awake; why wouldn’t I be?” Avery tried to push himself upright in his chair, rather than slumping over his keyboard.

“Because,” Jack said, leaning around to see the screen, “you just typed a whole row of the letter D.”
