I apologize, guys; I normally try to keep the week-long link dumps tamped down to no more than one a month, but I had a project that was making my brain cower in my skull like a startled guinea pig and didn’t have time to rustle up anything more substantial.<\/p>\n
Those of you who complain that these marathon dumps contribute to your lost productivity will just have to resign yourselves to being less productive this week.<\/p>\n
Haunted House<\/a> – Alexander Henry fabric collection with several attractive spooky designs. I like the Favourite Haunts<\/a> one, since it’s subtle unless you look at it closely.<\/p>\n Glow-in-the-Dark Eyeball Jelly Shots<\/a> – Jell-o shots that look like eyeballs. There’s an easy nonalcoholic version here<\/a> and a slightly more complicated one here<\/a>.<\/p>\n American Horror Story Fashion Line<\/a> – Hot Topic is releasing a five-piece collection, with each piece themed around a different season of AHS.<\/p>\n #PotterItForward<\/a> – A rather sweet campaign encouraging long-time fans of the Harry Potter series to leave notes in the books for new readers.<\/p>\n Masques and Murder<\/a> – “Renaissance revenge simulator” game in which you work to become a ruthless noblewoman. BoingBoing discusses it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Dandelion Earrings<\/a> – Little glass globes containing dandelion seeds. The same seller has similar earrings containing moss and other natural elements.<\/p>\n Anti-Pills<\/a> – Empty bottles with vintage-y looking labels for remedies like “Muriel Cheetbite\u2019s ‘Anti-Nature Pills’.” I guess you could fill the bottles with mints or something.<\/p>\n Luna<\/a> – Attractive lamp, in seven different sizes, made to resemble the moon.<\/p>\n Rowlf the Dog Reads “Grim Grinning Ghosts”<\/a> – Disney is doing a Disneyland\/Muppet crossover video series; here’s Rowlf doing a dramatic reading of the song from the Haunted Mansion.<\/p>\n Orcs of New York<\/a> – An amusing parody of the Humans of New York<\/a> project.
