Shivers of Delight

Open Sea Design Co. has a line of prints, notebooks, pads, wrapping paper, and cards that will appeal to anyone with a Victorian sensibility who believes in fairies. Think of a stationery shop in "Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell" by Suzanna Clarke and you'll get the idea. The shop's owner and creative director is Melissa M. Constandse and the art director and illustrator is Travis B. DeMello.

My home office needs to be appropriately stocked after all.

If you're in a dark mood, you're going to love the t-shirts, hoodies, and varsity jackets from Amethyst Designs UK . The illustrations are fantastic and they'll look great on anyone with or without a scowl. I love the horrorscope series. All the t-shirts come in men's and women's styles. Voodoo T-shirt Gemini Horrorscope T-shirt Taurus Horrorscope Cthulhu Skull Varsity Jacket Morte Hoodie Dark Forest Draped T-shirt There are hundreds of items in this shop. They even have kid and baby t-shirts! You can outfit the entire family for the apocalypse here.

My new obsession is miniatures and that's why I bring you Tiny Terrors Tuesday. I guess it's not a new obsession I loved my doll house as a girl. This is more like a reawakened obsession. Today we're visiting Pagan Moon Miniatures owned by a practicing hedgewitch in England. I hope these items inspire you to start your own doll house.

A haunted doll house is in your future.

It's another Macabre Mix Monday and online shopping is one of the things we can still do at least. Please support small businesses!

The jewelry collection by Sophie Evans is small, but there are some great pieces here. I love the arsenic bottle necklace. The shop is ExMortis Jewellery (not a typo on my part) and you might want to add it to your favorites to see what new pieces will be added. Arsenic No. 3 Silver Pendant Winged Death Pendant Lover's Loss Pendant La Guillotine Earrings and Pendant The Urn Pendant Belladonna Pendant All of Evan's pieces are made of silver and are perfect for a memento mori jewelry collector.

Mary Syring's prints and stickers will take you back to the Halloweens of the Roaring 1920s or perhaps the end of the Victorian era. The women in her illustrations look sassy and magical. The bold orange and black colors make me wish October was the longest month. You can find Syring's entire portfolio on her website or visit her Etsy shop . You're in for a treat. Vamp Print Conjour the Bewitching Print Coven Print Morticia and Wednesday Sticker Shadow Puppet Pin Witching You a Happy Halloween Syring sometimes offers Ouija boards and candles in teacups for sale on her website. You'll also find original pieces in both the Etsy shop and Mary Syring Art website.

Chris Wilbur has an eye for finding random items and putting them together to create ghoulish assemblage figures. They'll fit right in to a Halloween art collection. The pieces are creepy and humorous all at the same time. The heads are made from mink and bird skulls. The shop is Ferry Tales Gifts .
