Last October I was contacted by someone who inquired about using some of my potion labels in their miniature Halloween-themed townhouse. Of course I was more than thrilled to have my work featured in the project! Here are some quick snapshots they took of the progress they’ve made. How cool is this?

More photos to come! Thank you so much Gayle, I feel honored to be a part of such a unique and imaginative display! Oh what I’d give to curl up on a chair in there.

While browsing the forums of DoomBuggies, a tribute to Disney’s Haunted Mansion attraction, I discovered a post discussing what The Mansions kitchen and bathroom might look like. These concept sketches by the one and only Marc Davis are great!

Footsteps make their way around the kitchen as conjure up a recipe for arriving guests.

One of the Mansions many ghosts takes his skin off to take a bath.

Beautiful.

Okay so I forgot to put up an Easter post but thought these Easter eggs were just too cool not to show everyone. Have to try this out next year. Hope you all had a great Easter!

The Old Graveyard
By: Kurtis Primm

There is an old graveyard
I always walk by
Where others before me
Have died and now lie.

And when I walk by it
It gives me the creeps
To know that one day
It’s there that I’ll sleep.

Sometimes I see shadows
And I often hear sounds
Could it be coming from those
Buried deep underground?

I walked past one evening
It was quite late at night
I could see them there standing
A trick of the light?

I saw one approach
With it’s pale outstretched hand
And it beckoned to join it
So I turned and I ran.

Now I’ll never walk past
That old graveyard again
Cause I’m scared
I may never be heard from again.

The old graveyard’s still there
And I know in my mind
That the dead are there waiting
Just biding their time.

So if you walk past
And you hear the wind moan
It may not be the wind
But them calling you home.

Now this is awesome! I especially like the contrast in the photo with the green flower arrangement. The wallpaper is by Graham & Brown and can be purchased here.

What an awesome idea this is, and truly sinister as well. Enjoy dining over the deceased with this easy-to-build coffin table. To make your very own, click here.

These are simply just too cool. Visit Eddie Ross’ website for details on how to create these spooky napkin rings by clicking here.

I love the look of anatomical diagrams and artwork. Especially if they’re vintage! While browsing the Apartment Therapy blog, I stumbled upon this great post. Check it out!
