A Sinister Reading of The Poky Little Puppy – This throws a whoooole new light on the classic Little Golden Book.

Xoil Tattoos – This guy’s work is astonishing. More examples here. (via Cat)

Haggis Vitae – In addition to winning my Favorite Etsy Shop Name Ever award, this “house of strange vintage fiction” sells interesting art prints and mixed-media stuff. I’m particularly fond of A Most Reluctant Specimen.

Grown-Up Goth – Collection of gothy items with a more grown-up aesthetic. A couple photos are NSFW. (Hat tip to Pensive Pumpkin)

Who/Holmes Bouquet – Clever wedding bouquet made from the pages of a Sherlock Holmes story and a sonic screwdriver.

Stay Young the Vampire Way – Amusing ad altered from this original vintage orange juice advertisement. (via BoingBoing)

Skull Electric Violin – Gorgeous woodwork. (Hat tip to WitchArachne)

The Modern Mourner – Kind of like Offbeat Bride but for funerals.

New Disney Dream Portraits – Annie Leibovitz has been doing her “Disney Dream” series (celebrities as Disney characters) for a while now. She’s just added three new ones, including Jack Black, Will Ferrell, and Jason Segel as the Hitchhiking Ghosts from the Haunted Mansion.
