Good Witches Bad Witches™ is the fantasy world IP created by Caroline. It began as a series of children's books written and illustrated by Caroline. Before the release of the books Caroline began sharing her stories and the design process of these characters on her blog. As she visualised her world she began building parts of it using her background as a movie miniaturist. She created maquettes (figurines) of each new character and her audience grew as parts of this world were showcased. Soon interest in Caroline's witchy world Good Witches Bad Witches™ was worldwide and she began producing collectible figurines of these characters for purchase for her fans.
