Last year, I uploaded a video showing an early attempt at using full-sleeve temporary tattoo art of Jack Skellington and Oogie Boogie from the Nightmare Before Christmas to make a glow-in-the-dark 30-oz skinny tumbler (see that video here: https://youtu.be/lcXOrFrq8oA ). The video was a pretty big success -- at least for me and my channel at that time -- so this year as we start to think about getting tumblers ready for Halloween, I wanted to offer an updated video since I've made quite a few of these tumblers in the interim and have learned a few things. I did not edit much in this video, and I used very limited "fast-mo" because I wanted to show folks how I create this tumbler in real time, with tips, tricks, and suggestions. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND: This is just my way of making this cup. There are other methods, other materials to use, other ways to cut/trim the art, etc. -- all of the ways are valid and wonderful. This video simply shows how I do it.

I love Swirls! Mostly swirls of color, but really any swirls at all - I think they add a beauty and grace to everything. So after I started making soap a few years ago, and needing some sort of biz name that didn't sound like everyone else's version of suds-r-us, I decided on Luxinda Swirl. Luxinda is a twist on my real name, and I quickly started putting swirls of color in all of my handmade soaps.
Now I'm branching out a bit, and I want to keep adding swirls to everything I do!
