Unicorn Etsy Top Ten

Greetings all ^-^

This week is all about unicorns.  Because unicorns.

Enjoy ^-^



1. Unicorn Hood sold by TrafficCone

Have you ever wanted to be a unicorn? Of course you have!  Well now you can!  Let your dreams of prancing around living a care-free, magical existence be (partially) fulfilled by this awesome hood.  It even has attached mittens, and rainbow lining! And tassels!!  So awesome!!















2. Magical Unicorn Wedges sold by NixxiRose

Puuuuuuurrrrdy.  These shoes (like all of Nixxi Rose's designs - see my other top tens for some examples ^-^) are amazing! With these, you are one step closer (see what I did there?) to living your unicorn dream.  Love them!



















3. Florahawk Mohawk Headdress sold by PenduloudThreadsUK

Do you like unicorns, but just can't bring yourself to become a sparkly, colourful, rainbow-loving individual?  Do you prefer to keep things more in line with your outlook of humanity?  Then this is perfect for you!  A Unicorn, "florahawk" mohawk headdress.  Just the name of it sounds awesome.  Go! Live your gothic unicorn dream!













4. Handmade Unicorn Poop sold by TG02014

Ever wondered what unicorn poop looks like?  Or smells like?  Apparently it smells awesome, and can be used as soap.  I am so very curious about this. More curious than I have ever been about poop.  Made with vegan-friendly oils, this item makes me a lot happier than poop should. Love it.















5. Handmade Silver Unicorn Necklace sold by OberonJewellery

You may have noticed that if you type "unicorn" into Etsy's search bar, there are many, many, many results.   Most of which are very similar.  This one, however, really stood out to me.  I love the contrast of the gold horn on the silver, and the detail is just wonderful.  A really beautiful design, and exceptionally well made.  And the photos are so cool!

















6. Unicorn Relics Chest sold by RealmsOfFae

This is a really lovely idea.  The chest contains a unicorn horn, unicorn shadow, and unicorn mane.  And the magical properties of these relics are enclosed in a small scroll tied with a silver unicorn charm.  A wonderful little gift for any unicorn fan ^-^



















7.  Rocking Unicorn sold by HomeGardenBench

I wish I was five again.  This wooden rocking chair unicorn is a lovely idea.  The horn is soft and detachable, so no children will be spearing themselves on it. Very pretty and well made ^-^

















8. Rainbow Unicorn Wraparound Ring sold by TheVulpeculiar

It's so cute!! You may not have noticed, but I love anything cute (and fluffy.  But this is not fluffy.  The cute makes up for it).   This is a really simple, but wonderfully bright piece of jewellery.  It is made to your ring size, so no sadness on receiving it and it not fitting.  It just looks so peaceful and content.  I envy that unicorn...















9. Unicorn Wire Headgear sold by JoshKard

Are regular unicorn horns not fancy enough for you?  Would you prefer to be a special, upper-class unicorn?  Then this is the item for you.  Be a fancy unicorn!  You'll instantly feel better about life ^-^





















10. Twinkle Unicorn Ring sold by MONVATOOLondon

This is a very pretty ring.  I featured it's dragon counterpart in my Dragon Etsy Top Ten a while ago, but I think I like this one even more!  It's sparkly, it's a unicorn, it's well made, and can be adjusted to your ring size.  It's awesome.



















Ritzy Pick(s)
I couldn't decide between these two awesome items this week, so I'm featuring both ^-^

Unicorn Heels sold by AshantiLou

More shoes!!! Yes, I did already feature some unicorn heels, but these also needed bringing to your attention. For £290, these awesome heels designed by Ashanti Lou could be yours!  I'm not sure I could walk in them, but more practised individuals would be able to.  I envy those people!

















Baroque Latex Bodysuit sold by Eustratia

This is a really amazing piece.  For £120, this gorgeous latex body suit could be yours.  You may ask how this relates to unicorns.  No, unicorns are not renowned for their love of latex bodysuits.  There are unicorns on the front of the suit.  And I just love the cut of the item.  It's really different, and feminine.  Wonderful ^-^

Batman Etsy Top Ten

Greetings all ^_^

Welcome to this weeks Etsy Top Ten.  There are some awesome items here, so have a look & maybe you'll find an xmas present for that Batman-crazed friend you have, or just for you.  I've tried to find the most interesting and different Batman-themed items, because there are so many out there and personally, I like things that are a little bit different to the norm.

Enjoy ^-^

1. Batman Hat sold by beautifwool

Love this awesome little crochet hat ^-^ The little bat ears on the top are my favourite part, as well as the little tassels.

















2. Batman Tubetastic Pimps sold by Tubetasticpimp

This is something I've never come across before, but it is such a brilliant idea!  These little things are accessories for hearing aids or cochlear implants, and the seller has loads of different designs.  I love the batmobile one best ^-^
















3. Riddler Bag sold by QuirkyBoo

Such a quirky, awesome bag!  Made from cotton and decorated with a lovely bow and a great little Riddler lego figure, this is a great nod to batman fans.  I especially like the design of the fabric, with the question mark made of bats ^-^
















4. Batman Key Rack sold by 2D23D

A really cool idea, and practical too.  Sadly, since I found this item, it has actually sold.  But the seller has many other awesome Batman-related items on their Etsy page, so go check them out ^_^














5.  Keepsake Box sold by KatesComicCraft

I love this little box ^-^ Really well made and beautifully hand-painted, this keepsake box is perfect for keeping all those important little bits and pieces safe.  It even comes with a key lock so you know your things are secure ^-^













6. Batman Necklace sold by rachemstar

There are lots of Batman necklaces around Etsy, but this one really stands out.  It's such a cool design, and wonderfully different and quirky.  Love it ^-^

















7. DC Comic Oragami Bouquet sold by PaperBouquetsco

This really is something special.  Made by a paper and origami artist, using pages from DC comics, this is a wonderfully unique item.  The seller can create many different styles of bouquets, with your choice of theme, be it DC, Marvel, love letters, photos, or anything else you can think of.  This is a really lovely idea, and beautifully made.

















8. Batman Sleep Mask sold by lemonyjen

This is rather awesome.  Why just go to sleep, when you can go to sleep as Batman??  I especially love the little bow on the side ^-^ Very cute, and also practical.  Love it.















9.  Silicone Batman Mould sold by PickleLillys

This is really awesome ^-^ Now you can make cakes in the shape of batman's face.  Who wouldn't want that??  Also jelly.  Because nom.















10. Batman Reusable Sanitary Pad sold by lunalandingscouk

I didn't even know these existed until today.  You might initially think "ew, gross" but think about how much you spend on sanitary towels/tampons in a lifetime?  And it still galls me how we have to pay tax on those things!  This is a good alternative if you're not happy using the Mooncup-style reusable lady products.  Also much more environmentally friendly than single-use sanitary products.  And you get to have batman in your pants. Just sayin'...

















Ritzy Pick
Batman Art Deco Vintage Chest Of Drawers sold by smithersofstamford

For £385, this wonderful chest of drawers could be yours to make your home that little bit more special. Decorated with vintage comics from around the 1970's, this would make a great addition to any comic nerd's batcave, or wherever you prefer to be all brooding and secretive. 

Zombie Etsy Top Ten

Greetings all ^-^

Welcome to this weeks Etsy Top Ten.  As every good nerd should, I have spent many hours contemplating what I would do in the zombie apocalypse.  Do you know who your apocalypse buddy is yet?  If so, you may find these zombie-related items to be excellent gifts for them, as well as a gentle reminder of their commitment to your safety and borderline sanity.  Don't worry if you haven't found your buddy yet; you can use these items to bribe/lure someone into this role.

Enjoy!


1. Zombie Pin Cushion sold by DarkKittyCrafts

Yaaay! Awesome sewing supplies!!  This little pin cushion is adorable, and will brighten up any sewing day ^-^















2. Zombie Teapot sold by richardsymonsart

I remember stumbling upon this gorgeous little teapot a while ago, but I can't remember if I featured it or not.  Either way, you can enjoy it now/again, as it is definitely a wonderful addition to a zombie top ten ^-^.  Hand painted with zombie-esque details, this tea pot will show you who exactly is read for the apocalypse, and who to cut from your team.











3. Zombie Chess Set sold by oggtheclever

This is amazing!  Believe it or not, this chess set has been made by hand from reformed stone.  The detail is awesome, and the idea itself is just brilliant!  Love it ^-^















4.  Zombie Virus and Vaccine Necklace Set sold by TildaMaeBasset

These wonderful little vials contain the zombie virus, and it's vaccine.   Keep them together, or give one to your trusted apocalypse buddy; either way, these make a great piece of jewellery ^-^ and the seller has many other zombie-themed pieces of jewellery for sale if your apocalypse team is a big one :)













5. Necro Zombie Flesh Platform Heels sold by NixxiRose

Ermagherd!! Love these shoes ^-^  It was really difficult to pick one item from this sellers list, as there is just so much cool stuff!  But these shoes are just so beautiful, with really wonderful detail, that I had to choose them.  Not so good for running away from zombies, but definitely a good call for a cosplay, or just a night out ^-^


















6. Zombie Finger Hair Clip sold by PendulousThreadsUK

This is such a cool hair clip, and the detailing is amazing.  There are three different colours to choose from, and I can't decide which I like more!  An awesome statement accessory. Love it ^-^

















7. Leg Garter and Purse sold by BeesBizarreBazaar

This is AMAZING!  I love the fact that it's a purse attached to a garter: sexy and practical.  Two of my favourite things!  The fabric is awesome, but I'd probably get in to trouble if I wore this, as I wouldn't want to keep it hidden.  Short skirts ahoy!!













8. Crochet Zombie Cow sold by MyLittleBeastie

D'aaaaaawwww!  This cuddly little zombie cow is far too adorable for it's own good!  I love his little horns, and the facial scar just makes him look more rakish.  I just want to give him a hug and feed him brains ^-^
















9. Full Face Zombie Prosthetic (Painted) sold by Themaskmaker

This is another of Meesha Spurr's latex prosthetics.  I featured his spiderman chest prosthetic in a previous top ten, and this one is even more amazing!  This one has been carefully pre-painted, so it's great for anyone who hasn't worked with latex before, or someone like me who can't paint for toffee.  I don't even like toffee.  Anyway, this is an awesome item, and really well made.  If ever you're looking for a unique zombie costume, this is where you need to go.  Don't worry, you can blend right in with this!
















10. Zombie Ice Cream Cup sold by Zombiepottery

Ermagherd!  These are amazing!! There are three different designs, and I think this one was my favourite (but it's difficult to be sure!).  I love ice cream, so this would make me very happy.  They are made from porcelain, and are hand painted.  Really well made, and wonderful colourful detail, these would make a great gift for any zombie-aficionado.... or just someone who likes ice cream... NOM NOM NOM!!


















Ritzy Pick
Necro Gnome! Zombie Garden Gnome sold by TheLoneMagpie

Yaaaaaay! Undead gnome!! The detailing on this is terrifying, and amazing.  For £85, this wonderfully horrifying garden gnome could be yours to terrify your friends, relatives, and neighbours alike!  He is made from clay, and hand painted with porcelain paint, and would make a wonderful addition to any garden or graveyard ^-^
