Press Samples for Hella Handmade Creations
August 2021
I said I had several posts to do… and I wasn’t kidding. Next up is the Hella Handmade Creations August 2021 post!
I have 14 items to share in the August 2021 Hella Handmade Creations shop and it’s feeling very Fall-esque around here!
For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues Peel Off Base, Sweet & Sour Lacquer Gloss Sauce . I purchased the Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues, Sweet & Sour Lacquer gifted me their Gloss Sauce.
I do use artificial lighting for my photos. I get the most done at night, so I swatch a lot at night. My current setup uses GlamCor Pro LIghts and I use the Ultra X Model and this Daylight Company Duo Daylight Lamp (affiliate link).
