https://youtu.be/bmUuxEqI0RU I am over the moon excited to offer Poe in Wonderland t-shirts! It took me over a year and trying different styles and companies to find these shirts.

Oscar Wilde Quote Tee Read what you love! Oscar Wilde – poet, playwright, and purveyor of pleasure – wrote, “If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use reading at all.” Our Oscar Wilde Quote Tee is an ode to reading you can wear any day of the week. Made from 100% cotton with white ink on a gorgeous cool blue, this comfy boyfriend tee will be in your closet’s regular rotation. Come back to it again and again, like all the best stories. We really like the literary printed products from Storiarts and wrote about them in an earlier post. They donate a portion of each sale to a program that promotes love of reading with world youth. We receive no compensation from them other than the happiness of sending awareness about the importance of reading (and style) out into the universe! Use this promo…

Swooped into my local Homegoods store yesterday – in and out with social distancing all the way. I’m not affiliated with them, simply a Homegoods addict. Halloween items are trickling in, and as always, you need to hit up lots of their locations to discover everything because they seem to individually order for their own stores. They have diversified items this year with a mix of elegant, vintage-looking, and Disney inspired merchandise. Added lots of choices in Halloween pillows which is thrilling! I need more decorative pillows like a hole in the wall and I may have to start hiding them from my husband, John. So tempting the choices! [envira-gallery id=’5047′] Disney merchandise might have been in the stores in the past, but I hadn’t noticed it. Not a big Disney merch fan. I have friends who like it though so I did notice more items on this trip. [envira-gallery…

STANDS is once again teaming up with the cast and crew of Supernatural for a great cause. Samantha Smith, who plays Mary Winchester, on the show has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Supernatural’s stars regularly use show logos and characters in STANDS merchandise to support non-profits or the community. In the past, they’ve raised money for hunger, hurricane relief, pandemic support, and suicide awareness. As we approach October and breast cancer awareness month, this shirt can help raise funds towards this worthy cause. HURRY since this is the last week they are selling them! Photo Credit: STANDSBeautiful pink phoenix rising Supernatural is the longest running series on the CW network and has given us 15 amazing seasons. It is hands down my absolute favorite show. I’ve purchased quite a bit of their partner STANDS merchandise over the years and been really pleased with it. Supernatural — “Celebrating the Life of…

We’re starting our Halloween hunt this summer! You can bet items hit Homegoods and Michaels in late July. Spirit of Halloween is open here in Atlanta. We nipped into our local At Home store last week and found the following delightful things. The dragon eye lights are pretty cool. We’ll be opening up our blog’s Halloween page soon. If you were around last year, you would’ve seen our continual posting of all local events. Yes, there’s a pandemic, but that doesn’t mean events won’t happen. Most are pivoting to online so we’ll post those links and dates. Enjoy the video and forgive my skills! https://youtu.be/8bMzslFFYak

It’s really not for the faint of heart. It’s scary, fun, but exhilarating. However, being a horror and dark genre fan is awesome because it creates a life of thrill when one is interacting with horror-themed “things” throughout their lives. Unfortunately, with the exception of Halloween, there are no major horror-themed occasions where you can give yourself the chance to find awesome gifts for horror fans! That reflects in the buyer-seller market as a scarcity in even the most mediocre horror and dark genre gifts…usually staying as such! However today, we are changing all that, because we have done a tremendous amount of research to bring the best horror and dark genre gift ideas (legally) available to…

Came downstairs today to a wonderful Mother’s Day surprise. The boys surprised me with tulips and a charcuterie board? Not an item I expected yet really enjoyed. I love surprises – the good kind. John, my husband, ordered it from a new company in Atlanta called The Charcuterie Chick. Alex Plavin creates custom charcuterie and cheese boards with seasonal ingredients. [envira-gallery id=’3842′] I love pink. The board and crackers came wrapped very nicely in pink tissue paper and pink and white colored boxes tied with ribbons. Perfect for me. It was a pretty display with the tulips and wine. My favorite wine by the way is Dr. L Riesling. So, at 2:00, we broke it open and paired it with everything on the board. John and I did – not the under aged teens in the house. Highly recommend for a personal treat or to entertain your guests. Welcome The…

Businesses every day are struggling and quickly adapting their operations to survive in the Coronavirus pandemic. If you’re not an essential worker, you are probably quarantining yourself and loved ones at home. You might be online and worried about your favorite business or organization making the cut with tough times. Wondering how you can help them. Turns out employers and employees are finding creative ways to support themselves and YOU can make a difference. Virtual shopping can be both a lifesaver and fun. Creekwater Alpaca Farm in Snellville, Georgia One of our favorite places to visit is Creekwater Alpaca Farm located right outside Atlanta. It’s a fantastic place with alpacas, pigs, rabbits, a LOUD rooster, quinea fowl, goats, and the caretakers who love it. They were really hit hard and facing an animal food shortage so they started a GoFundMe campaign. Then, they began to offer Zoom barn tours. We…

We all have our favorite things. I am a big fan of Poe, Alice in Wonderland, Jane Austen, Emily Dickinson, Queen Elizabeth I, and history itself. In fact, this blog could well have been named with a combination of Poe-Alice-Austen since those are my TOP loves. I’m happy to say I’ve found an Etsy artist who satisfies all of these works of fiction and real characters. Tiffini Elektra X has a fabulous (I don’t throw that word around often) shop: Tartx . I have ordered 3 rings from here and they are some of my favorite jewelry. An Edgar Allan Poe ring, Alice and her crown, and I special ordered one of Jane Austen.
