Still More Stuff I Found While Looking Around
It’s time for another bunch of random stuff I want to share but can’t hang a whole post on. Some of them have no attribution, so if you happen to know the source for any of these please leave a note in the comments. (Click to view larger.)

Tarot Card Collar This is another custom job by Nez of Darkspectre Custom Couture, featuring real tarot cards.
|
|
Coffin Bookcase Found via Jes, this was originally posted on Imgur. MAKE has instructions for building a coffin bookcase, if you’re feeling ambitious and want to try something similar.
|
|
“Time Flies” Clock This awesome wall decoration is by Mr. Kate, and there’s even a tutorial. I love the black butterflies, but this would look great with bats, too.
|
|
Spooky Signpost This would be a neat outdoor Halloween decoration. I can’t find the source for this one, but there are easy directions for a somewhat similar one here. You could also make a lightweight prop version with insulating foam (the sort used for prop tombstones) and a long piece of PVC pipe.

|
Sealed with a Spider This is attributed to the Zakka Life blog, but I can’t actually find it on that site. It’s certainly easy enough to DIY; just drip some sealing wax on an envelope and press in a fake spider before it cools. These are obviously too fragile to go through the mail, but they’d be a neat touch on hand-delivered party invitations.

Obi Wine Kenobi This isn’t goth, it just made me laugh. The little glowstick lightsaber is the perfect finishing touch.
|
|
Halloween “Wreath” This was made using an old picture frame and some dollar-store decorations. The netting appears to be cheesecloth.
|
|
Halloween Lamp Similar idea to the frame above, and using the same gauzy fabric. This is a five-minute way to add a little Halloween ambiance to a room.
|
|
Baby “Allo! Worm” This was made by Wa’Ou Creations, and there’s even a video tutorial. This is so stinkin’ cute.
|
|
Bottle of Boos This appears to be an empty bottle turned into a light, but it would also be fun to paint on a bottle of wine or other spirit before giving as a gift.
|
|
Lace Doily Spiderwebs Here’s another super-simple decorating idea, turning inexpensive crocheted doilies into elegant spiderwebs. Instructions are at What a Bloom.
|
|
Dark Angels I always enjoy seeing twee little figurines get a gothy makeover. There’s a tutorial at The Anticraft.

For reasons that elude me, it never occurred to me to put black gauze over the lampshades.. it’s really cool looking!

Oh, that Allo worm! So cute!
