Creature Feature: Mutter Museum

2

philly mutter (4)The Mutter Museum in Philly was mine and Frank’s #1 reason for wanting to go to Philly when we took our road trip with Mike and Heather back in March. Knowing how excited we were to go there Mike and Heather even paid for our admission as an added thank you for Frank driving the 11 hours to get us there (yes our friends rock!).

Part of the reason I was so intrigued by this place is because anatomy was my favorite subject in art school. Then you add on all my own “fun” ailments, my love for oddities and anything remotely macabre and that pretty much sums things up. Needless to say when we went there I was mesmerized by the place. We are both still so happy we got to experience it in person. Recently on an episode of Ozzy and Jack’s World Detour show we got to experience it all over again. As we were watching it we kept saying “ohhh we were there! We saw that!” ha ha.

I had been following the museum for many years before getting to go there and knew that every year they put up their Mutter Tree for Christmas. Often people send in ornaments to donate that go with the theme of the museum. Well this year I decided to donate one of my 2016 Santa Claws Christmas Ornaments to the Mutter Tree! Well go and behold I opened this post on Instagram this morning and could not be more thrilled!

So thrilled it arrived in one piece and is now a part of this incredible museum’s holiday tradition!  See other ways my art and handmade creations have been featured and displayed on my official portfolio website! Also if you like this ornament, there are other versions of it available in my Etsy shop. They are one of a kind so once they are gone they are gone! Happy Holidays everyone!

Dead Girl Decay: New Vintage!

I got my hands on some beautiful vintage brooches and am starting a new line of Dead Girl “Vintage” Decay Barrettes! These are for those of you that like vintage, burlesque, victorian, gothic, sparkly bling! These would even be perfect for a bride to be looking for something unique for their big day! No two of these barrettes in this line will ever be the same! Making them unique and one of a kind for any special event!

Here are the first three I have made so far and they are currently for sale in my Etsy shop! I thought I would start off by making some that went with the feel of the winter season!

Back Bone: Help Linda Blair and the Worldheart Foundation

0

As you may have read in some of my past posts or in the Back Bone section of my website that I have helped raise money with my artwork in numerous ways. You may have also read about the items I have created to help raise money for Linda Blair’s Worldheart Foundation. I received a newsletter email from the foundation today reaching out for help. They are currently low on funds and are asking that people help spread the word to get more donations. So because of that I would like to remind everyone about the adorable dog inspired barrettes and pins that I still have available in my Etsy shop. They are currently only $6.00 and every time one is purchased I donate 50% to Linda’s foundation.

I currently have 3 pins and 1 small barrette left for purchase…

Not only is it nice to get a little something when helping a wonderful foundation, but it’s also a wonderful reminder that you did!

Stay Spooky!
