Yes, I made “I’m the real” merchandise (and forged someone’s handwriting to do so). Yes, it is a button which is 24k gold plate. There is a possibility I am a Benedict Cumberbatch fan.

And here are the spanky new clear acrylic necklaces! Adorable Atom, Flying Skully, and Waving Ghost (with bow tie and pompadour). Science, skulls, and ghosts and somehow they call came out cute. Also I have kind of an accidental color scheme going there heh. The ghost and atom charms are both partially translucent, which is hard to photograph but very cool in person. All are about 1” in size; I’m only offering them as necklaces right now but earrings/rings are an option in future if there’s interest.

Available on Etsy: Adorable Atom / Flying Skully / Waving Ghost

I’m super please with how these came out. Would anyone be interested in a writeup/review of where I had them done?

My Sherlock / Moriarty inspired IOU apple necklace - sold out for some time in acrylic - is now back, in super snazzy wood with a gorgeous high-gloss finish! They’re an adorable 1” size and come on the pictured silver 18” chain. Available on Etsy here.

Slice of Sassy Pie. Made from anti-pill fleece, combination of wool and acrylic felt hand sewn fruit and whipped cream. Measures about 6.5” long x 4.5” across back and 4” tall with toppings (a bit bigger than life).

I will be expanding flavors, but pies with fruit pieces in them, etc., are a more complicated endeavor (don’t want to just change the color and declare it cherry). But I am open to flavor suggestions.

On Etsy: Lemon || Key Lime || Chocolate Silk

I waited to post these til it was Supernatural Wednesday because I’m a dork. Dean Winchester requests that you not forget the pie.

After a whole lot of popular demand, I’ve brought back dandelions; in a monster version! (Okay, so I ran out of white fur, but I prototyped these guys a while back and thought it was cute in colors.) I sold some at C2E2 but I just finished these! All are about 11” tall in their pot. Stems and leaves are poseable, removable from pot if you want to “replant” it. Faux fur can be smoothed down or fluffed up as you prefer.

On Etsy: White/hot pink/green || Lime green/blue || Purple/yellow/orange

This weekend! If you are in NY or the vicinity, head up to Beacon, NY. Apparently they have at *least* five things to do; and one of them is this soft sculpture/plush gallery show, Stitched, which is going to be AWESOME. Hosted at the gallery of the amazing magazine Clutter, and curated by the equally amazing Lana Crooks (whose piece I want to steal). Linkage: FB invite if you’re going / Sign up for the preview list for first dibs on works / direct link to the show after it opens

This is my piece! His name is Raziel and he is the first “Celestial Tier” Sprite. So I showered him with fanciness, including three pairs of magnetic wings, a crown with a fake opal I made, and a light-up galaxy in his stomach. 14” tall with a 22” wingspan, and more different materials and beads/sequins/rhinestones than you can shake a stick at; including a bunch of stuff that doesn’t photograph, like custom iridescent glitter eyes with stars in them and a handmade “opal”.

Honestly I’ve never had so many things inexplicably go wrong! He must have been making sure I gave him the attention he deserved. But he’s on his way, and I’m getting used to spending my days and long (LONG) nights trying to put right what isn’t yet done. My only guide on this journey is Al Net-hulu-zon… uh *cough* *exit stage right*

Fluffy Chicken: the state national official bird of tumblr. Symbol of determination, teamwork, and following your dreams. And just really wanting something for no good reason. Also, one of my con exclusives for C2E2 at the end of the month (booth 961). Made from two types of silky faux fur, with a wool felt beak and safety eyes (they’re under there), and feet complete with a fur “sock” just like the real ones. Measures 10” tall and can be posed sitting or standing (with light back support).

Isn’t it majestic

I’m SO at WonderCon Anaheim this weekend that I’m already here. Con starts when I roll in, baby, so it started last night. ;) But you can’t come in til tomorrow, at which point House of Darkly will be at Booth #481.

Con Exclusive: Bedeviled Egg! Just 9 of these guys, with numbered tags; the 10th is a special Angelic version (just balancing out the universe).

Doctor Who Anniversary: I’ve managed to bring back a small run of the long sold-out Fish Fingers and Custard plush just for the DW 50th and the return of the show this weekend.

IOU Apples: Plush Sherlock IOU Apples, as designed for the Baker Street Babes giveaway. First public offering of these guys, I only have 3!

Plus: Just a sample, a batch of new one-off MonsterFriends, and some Licker monsters. I have a bunch of other plush and jewelry too, including rainbow vomiting baby Hurley clouds and a new version of the Hashtag necklaces! They’re teeny and black and awesome.

And: for fans of my Art of War: SDCC Edition e-book, I will have a few small buttons of the “BRING IT ON” Comic-Con parody logo.

AND: I will have my GISHWHES coffee table book with me and a Sharpie. It has blank pages. If you participated, come sign it like a yearbook! I want to see how many sigs I can get.

ALSO even though the con center doesn’t allow stickers, come on by and tell me you come from tumblr and you get a free logo button.
