When you discover the needles in your traveling sewing kit aren’t strong enough to go through the garment you want to alter, it’s time to get creative.
I’m sulking because my plans for today were completely destroyed thanks to waking up with a horrible migraine. That had a gift-with-purchase of awful chills. London is suffering a heatwave, and I was huddled under 2 layers of duvet.
:: sighs in migraine triggers :: Really, why so much corn syrup? Two types of fucking corn syrup! Whhhhyyyyyyy?
Bandom playlist or continue listening to all of The Vampire Lestat's released songs? Which will distract me from this stupid migraine enough to get work done? WHO KNOWS?
The look of frustration that Clovis Devilbunny is giving me because I finally accepted that maybe, just maybe, the reason I’ve been having more migraines is due to stress.
It looks like Michaels is aiming for the 90s nostalgia crowd with their "pre-Halloween" release that's hitting at the end of the month. I've learned from Tumblr that the Kids Today call this "whimsigoth".
Today is clean and reorganize my walk-in closet day. Here’s hoping I don’t get eaten by a rustle of feral petticoats!
No advice from your Goth Auntie because she has been trying to sleep off a migraine. Drink some water, take your meds, and be kind.
PSA: Pyramid Collection is closing and everything is 60% off. I'm telling myself I don't need a motorcycle -inspired leather jacket with a peplum, because it doesn't have pockets and I don't know if it would be too long in the torso. But ooooooh I wants it. www.pyramidcollection.com/itemdy00.asp...
Oh, and there was that time when Anne Rice herself shared my review of Prince Lestat. The scream I screamed when I saw her post. gothic-charm-school.com/charm/?p=1005
And of course, possibly the most famous photo of me. With Will Hulihan, during a photo shoot with David Brommer.
Wait wait wait, Achemy Gothic redesigned their classic bat necklace?!?! :: pines in coveting ::
#throwbackthursday from the NYC stop of the 2009 Gothic Charm School book tour! Look at how cute we are! 😍 @peteventers.bsky.social
Good GOD that was a good concert. Perhaps slightly more cathartic than I was expecting, and I was expecting a LOT from seeing Florence + the Machine.
Proof of concept: turning a men’s suit tie into an exaggerated neck bow. I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out. Next up, doing this with the replica of Hannibal’s “murder tie”.
I didn’t think to take photos of Will’s canon-accurate tiny embroidered scars, but I DID think to take a photo of the Verger brand on Hannibal.
In other fandom news: the super-cute chibi plushies of Hannibal and Will that I ordered last year are out for delivery! Listen closely, you can hear Pete's eye rolling from wherever you are.
Ooooh pretty. This would make a fantastic giant bow for a hat. www.etsy.com/listing/1890...
