My husband's bday is in early December so I tend to go a bit overboard on the cookie front. Yesterday I made 14 dozen of choc chip, choc crinkle, and mint choc cookies. Today I made 4 dozen Peanut butter and 6 dozen rose water shortbread cookies. My kitchen smells like an English garden.

Our House is Our History: Our friend Matt has an infectious enthusiasm & an amazing son whom I got to know during the pandemic. I was so happy to receive these gifts from them & we love having their art in our home. They even illustrated the gift wrap! ❤️

My haunted house wax melter and humidifier are conspiring to create a whole vibe and I'm not against it.

Our House is Our History: Our dear friend is also an amazing photographer! We fell in love with this piece, the juxtaposition of the spiral staircase against the square canvas creates a delicious sense of unease & we love seeing our friend's art on our wall! deadlightphotography.com #darkart

Our House is Our History: I met this cool crochet artist at a horror convention and fell in love with her Sadako. We joked about her finding a use for that b&w yarn every knitter owns. Next show I had another artist freak out when I told her- turns out she has a following. DoneByDonielle

Our House is Our History: I spotted this lamp in an ad for a show we did in Pittsburgh. I fell in love with it and bought it from the artist before the show even began. She was a bit surprised as she was unsure if people would like her work. She sold out at that show, rightfully so. #darkart

Our House is Our History: We did a horror show in a small town near Buffalo, NY when I came across this amazing Hornbill skull circle lamp. Turned out the artist was a big fan of my husband's work so with his blessing I negotiated an art trade. I love how it looks like a xenomorph!

Our House is Our History: A couple of years ago our dear, talented friend @magnusapollo.bsky.social made this giant Bigfoot for my birthday. He snuck to our house in the wee hours and set it up so I would see it peering thru the window when I woke up. Best bday ever! He kinda rocks.

Our House is Our History: As a kid I loved 'Troll' and thought Eunice St. Clair the coolest neighbor. As an adult she kind of became my inspiration for how I wanted my home to look. Shout out to my hubby for commissioning the talking mushroom . #troll #EuniceStClair

Our House is Our History: Another piece from Mythological Taxidermy- Nightmare Before Christmas jack-o'-lantern sculpture. In my twenties my housemate and I decorated our apartment in a Nightmare Before Christmas theme, this piece reminds me of the fun we had doing that.

Our house tells our history: I'm a huge Dark Crystal fan, and I met this amazing artist, Mythological Taxidermy, at a festival in Ithaca, NY. Turns out we were from the same town & when she made my fav Skeksis I knew it was joining our collection. #mythologicaltaxidermy #DarkCrystal

My husband and I are both horror artists, and we've collected quite a bit of art over the years from shows we have done and friends we have met along the way. Our house tells our history and I thought it would be cool to share.

This is what happens when you are hungry, the smell of snow is in the air, and your husband worked a show all day. Sausage gravy mixed with brown onion gravy and vegetables baked in a puff pastry pie. Served the remaining gravy over egg noodles with broccoli and watching Frankenstein. Aww yeah.

Tried watching 'All's Fair' and this is the manifestation of my secondhand embarrassment. This hurts

Tonight I AM the most terrifying thing in the dark forest. #grannyweatherwax #terrypratchett #halloween

Feeling productive today, it's 2:45 pm and I've replaced a doorknob, done a load of laundry, knitted 2 centipede scarves, and begun work on my coyote skull headdress. Time for some coffee.
