Need ideas on how to dress for the lab but be Halloween-y/cosplay lite? I’ve got these 4 ideas for you! Do you recognize the 4 references? What’re you planning on dressing as for Halloween? #medicallaboratoryscientist #lab4life #lablife #loveforlabpros #laboratory #laboratorylife #lab

A couple of years back, the lab got 4 new DxH’s, and they were named after the 4 Hobbits. I decided to illustrate some signs. Now, they have some new instrumentation, & I got to illustrate Gollum! If you or your lab wants illustrated name signs, feel free to reach out, I am open for commissions!

New stickers and sticky notes going live next Fri, 9/12, 3pm EST! I’m working on expanding the scope of stickers & sticky notes in the shop to include more healthcare, science, math, & tech. If there’s a particular area or idea that you think needs a sticky note or some snarky sticker, let me know!

Don’t know who needs to hear it today, but reminder!! You *actually* have to troubleshoot your QC issues, not just try it for a third, fourth, fifth, sixth time without doing anything else and expect passing results. And don’t forget to document what you did!! It makes QC review much easier!

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 18/07/2025

Shoutout to Levi for this sticker idea!! What’s the craziest looking cell you’ve ever seen? Or even crystals? I’ve seen some very non-textbook crystals in the wild. Also, if you’re headed to GalaxyCon Raleigh, you can find me in Artist Alley (Ballroom C) at C25!

Is anyone else melting?! 🫠 I saw a Washington Post graphic that highlighted the hottest cities in the heat wave and Durham, NC (where I live) was listed as one of the hottest. Send ice and creami recipes!!!

The hidden dangers of sed rates! Hello! I’m back, and will be slowly posting at least once a week. The shop is back open and I’ll go over some shop details later on - the main thing is the shop is open, and Post-it brand sticky notes are now live!

Sorry for lack of content! I’ve been using this month to try and figure the plan for the shop, and to move things around (physically and digitally). I’ll be back in June with new content and stickers! Thank you so much for your patience and understanding ❤️

This is a true story that happened to me on my first ever night shift as a student employee. I learned that not everything is an acronym and that a leg is in fact a leg. And that you need to bend the knee to get it to fit in the robot that goes to path. #medicallaboratoryscience #lab4life #lablife

Lab Week isn't officially over yet, there's still tomorrow! What're you planning on doing to end the week? (Might I recommend the ASCLS Lab Week Run 5K or the ASCLS Lab Week Spotify playlist? Totally not biased here, as part of the planning committee) #labweek #labweek2025 #lab4life

Happy 50th Lab Week!! Can you believe it? As a part of Lab Week celebrations, I had the wonderful opportunity to work with @diagnostica_stago to design and illustrate a coagulation cascade maze mouse pad! Can you figure out how to get to the Stable Fibrin Clot party?

(6/6) Or I may need to scale back what the shop offers. I truly hope I can keep creating lab-themed goods, but depending on how things go, I might have to make some changes. Thanks so much for sticking around. Your support means a lot. #lablifeforever

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

(5/6) After Lab Week, I’ll be taking a couple of weeks off to reassess where Warbler Works Studio, as a shop and a service, is headed. I may need to raise prices due to the rising costs of shipping, packaging, supplies, and tariffs.

100

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

(4/6) That said, I do have new products that have already arrived or are on the way, and I’m planning to release them this summer—so please keep an eye out for those.

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

(3/6) And all of this is happening while healthcare, science, research, and even basic rights are being chipped away at on purpose, which just adds another layer of frustration to it all. It’s making it really tough to plan ahead for, well, anything.

100

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

(2/6) On top of that, trying to keep up with all the tariff changes feels like death by a thousand cuts (not the Taylor Swift version). The ever-changing tariffs are going to impact at least some part of every supply chain, and small shops like mine are feeling it.

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

(1/6) Things aren’t looking too great right now, to be honest. AI is being trained on stolen artwork—from legendary artists like Hayao Miyazaki to amazing indie creators like jdebbiel—and it’s hard not to feel discouraged watching that happen.

Look out lab! Tried to see if I could make beaker shaped pouches. So far, it looks like a shoe. I was able to get a sewing machine from Joann, and am learning how to make things. One step closer to making lab themed bags! #medicallaboratoryscientist #lab4life #lablife #loveforlabpros #laboratory

Is this the secret downside of ‘if I fit, I sits’? Sorry for taking longer gaps between posts lately - I’ve been dealing with some eye strain, and general eye issues. Remember to take a moment to breathe and take care of yourselves!! #medicallaboratoryscience #lab4life #lablife #laboratory #lab

Last flyers for the month! Like I’ve stated in previous posts, I’m going to try and make this a series showcasing scientists and important figures to laboratory medicine throughout the year. Medicine would not be where we are today without diverse perspectives and research.

I want the lab to be able to celebrate these medical professionals, and all that they’ve done for the health of our community.

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 10/02/2025

I hope to keep this up as a series of flyers to highlight medical professionals from all backgrounds throughout the year and release them during corresponding history months. I ask for help and input from the laboratory community, as I am only one person, and there is only so much research I can do.

Warbler Works Studio @warblerworks.bsky.social · 10/02/2025

🧵It’s Black History Month-I’ll be making free printable flyers highlighting Black medical professionals, especially those whose work impacted the medical laboratory field. I’ve only highlighted three people so far, but I am researching a few more to release. #medicallaboratoryscience #lab4life
