My All Hallow’s Potster Collection is now officially available to see and buy in person in my Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles! So don’t delay making a visit to the shop and getting your claws on one at the in-store discounted price* for yourself or your favorite ghoul!
When I was at the shop this weekend I also did a little rearranging of my display. So when you are there you will also notice that my canvas print inventory is unusually low and there is a sign explaining why that is. For those that don’t make it into the shop this week will hear the exciting news when it is announced here in the upcoming days, so stay tuned to your inboxes!
After my brightly colored, sparkly and quirky spring variety of Potsters completely sold out, I couldn’t resist getting my claws into “gardening” again. Little did I know that by switching things up to a lush bed of hand-dyed graveyard moss, blood-red aura quartz charged by a lunar eclipse, and welcoming a little spider friend into each hand-painted terracotta pot, that I would conjure up a new variety of Potsters that would sprout oversized fangs, black foliage, spooky seasonal colored petals, and some wickedly adorable personalities.
So as an artist turned impromptu botanist once again, I am very excited to officially share my Limited Edition All Hallow’s Potster Collection. Four vampy little Potster Monstrosities exclusively for autumn and Halloween season (or if you’re like me, spooky it up all year long)!
No glittery sparkle was added to bright green moss or the hand painted pots this time, instead I hand dyed the moss giving it a darker grave yard vibe and gave the pots a metallic sheen. I substituted the clear crystal quartz from the spring variety with blood-red aura quartz. I also gave each of them a little spider friend to keep them company while their energy sparked during the lunar eclipse. Their disk florets didn’t form into adorable golden brown faces but instead silvery black with macabre sass. And instead of snaggle toothed grins smiling up at you, they snap back with venomous oversized fangs.
Why You’ll Love Them: ✨ Allergy free and low maintenance (they love being charged under the full moon from time to time) ✨ They’re perfect as forever greenery for your crypt or as a floral gift for your favorite fiend ✨ Each one has a unique personality/spooky season color, choose the one(s) that matches your vibe ✨ They are guaranteed to spark curious conversations and won’t snap back (unless provoked) ✨ They are collectible pieces of art you won’t find at any big box or Halloween stores
As pictured, these four pre-made botanical beasties are ready to find their forever humans and add a uniqueness to your spooky season (or every day) decor. Since they are handmade and not mass produced* no two will ever be recreated exactly the same. Meaning they will only take root for the human they were destined to grow for.
They have already made their debut in my Etsy shop and are available to purchase for online shoppers. Any that have not been adopted by the time I make my next art drop at Closet Collectibles will be also be added to my Cabinets of Curiosities display for local collectors who wish to see and adopt one in person.*
Don’t miss your chance to add a bit of spooky fun, crystal-conjured botany to your monster menagerie! 🕷️🪴💎✨
As you may recall the first sale I made from my booth at Crow & Calico’s Unruly Art Market was from Loren, the location owner. He purchased my It’s Gonna Be That Kind Of Morning, Pee Wee Herman canvas print and told me he planned to hang it in the bar.
Well after a number of intense and dangerous storms hitting our area week after week, we finally had some beautiful days this past weekend. On Sunday my husband pulled out his Trans Am and we took a ride to the cemetery to visit my Uncle’s grave, and as anyone knows its never easy celebrating the life of someone you hold so dear that is no longer with us. So Frank decided to surprise me and as we were pulling out of the cemetery he told me we were gonna take a little longer of a drive. I realized as we got closer that he was taking me to Crow & Calico. He knew I needed a much needed kitty fix from Whiskey and to cheers a drink in honor of my Uncle’s birthday.
When we went into the bar Frank pointed with excitement and said “Look! It’s your Pee Wee!” and low and behold there it was on display!
I would be lying if I said I wasn’t totally geeking out when I saw it hanging on the wall in there. I mean I know Loren told me he planned on hanging it in the bar, but to actually see it on display really brightened my day and I am truly grateful for yet another art collector that sees something special in my work.
So please if you are in the Midwest be sure to pay the Crow & Calico Tavern a visit. It’s ran by the nicest and most creative people you will ever meet and they hold so many unique events and markets there. It’s an absolute gem of a place to discover.
And if you want a canvas print of this piece for your own be sure to shop online via my Etsy shop or in person from my Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles in Crete, IL. The shop is actually not that far from Crow & Calico so you can even make a little adventure out of it by visiting and supporting two incredible spots that support me as an artist. Be sure to tell them both that Living Dead Girl Nicole sent ya!
And if you are new here, be sure to check out this photo from Crown & Calico alongside many of the other happy art collector photos and video submissions that are featured on the Freaky Fanatics page of my portfolio website. Want to be added? Then be sure to take photos or videos of yourself rocking, displaying, or even gifting my art and contact me to be featured!
Attention pin up ghouls! This weekend I made an art drop/restock trip to Closet Collectibles and it included the repackaging of eight of my premade Dead Girl Decay barrettes. This means they no longer come in clear sealable bags, and instead, they now come in freshly packaged, ready-to-gift clear boxes with branded logo seals.
So be sure to check out my restocked Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles* and get in the spirit of the upcoming spooky season, all while supporting a small business, and an artist who makes human, one-of-a-kind wearable art and more! 👩🏻🎨🛍✨️
