\"Jessica<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nBats<\/b>
\n
\nThese squee-worthy bat sculptures are by artist Jessica Joslin<\/a>. She has loads of other lovely critters in her gallery. (The bones she uses are either replica or ethically sourced.)\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Caesar<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nCaesar Knife Block<\/b>
\n
\nI was hoping this was an actual perfect-for-the-Ides-of-March product, but it seems to just be a ‘shopped version of this bust<\/a>. (via pdq)<\/i>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Spiderweb<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nSpiderweb Lamp<\/b>
\n
\nNo idea where this is from originally; there’s a similar image here<\/a>, but it appears to be used as a placeholder for illustrative purposes. It’d be easy to make something similar; the simplest way would be to use spray adhesive on an existing lampshade and cover it with spooky paper. If you’d rather make your own, google “how to make a lampshade” to get lots of tutorials like this one<\/a>.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Skull<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nSkull Measuring Spoons<\/b>
\n
\nThese were a seasonal item at World Market<\/a>, but don’t seem to be available now. Sigh.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"NMBC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nNightmare Before Christmas<\/i> Mobile<\/b>
\n
\nAll roads lead to Pinterest on this one, so I can’t credit an original source. The tentacle looks like painted plywood; I like how it’s hinged so it can swing back out of the way. The little hanging characters appear to be this set<\/a> of plush figures. (via Tanya)<\/i>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Goth<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nGoth Steampunk Cake<\/b>
\n
\nI don’t want to eat this thing as much as wear it. It’s by Sweetlake Cakes<\/a>, and there are several other lovely cake photos as well.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Octopus<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nOctopus Chatelaine<\/b>
\n
\nThis gorgeous silver chatelaine is in the colleciton of the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art<\/a>. Collectors Weekly has a good article on the history of chatelaines<\/a>.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Computer<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nSkull Computer Mouse<\/b>
\n
\nThis functional mouse was made from a sheep skull by Ivan Mavrovi\u0107<\/a>. Be sure to check out the rest of his site for all kinds of steampunky designs.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Spider<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nSpider Bedding Set<\/b>
\n
\nThis screen-printed duvet and pillow shams would be perfect for a guest room. They seem to have previously been available through Etsy but aren’t there now. There’s a listing for them on Wanelo<\/a>, but they require registration to use their site so I don’t know if the item is actually still available.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\"Bizarro\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\nBizarro<\/b>
\n
\nThis just made me giggle.\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
