Random Zombie Art

Being a huge fan of the comics and then later the show, iZombie is recreated here with Gwen (not Liv) chowing down on some brains. Just as Lady-I-Hellsing mentioned in her description, Gwen and Liv are totally different characters but we can appreciate their common love for brains!

MMM brains

Pilot Down by DugStanat is an undead fighter pilot made from ceramic. I'd like to see a movie about zombie pilots made from claymation or something. 

Zombie Mustache by Reitanna-Seishin is quirky and creepy looking. Not sure how a mustache becomes a zombie but this works. 

These brooches aren't the kinds your Grandmothers wore. These plushies can spice up a bag, look charming on a collar, or just be cute on anything. Thanks to mad-hatter-71 for creating such cool things. 

Don't Be Ghoul

The King really does live on! In these Elvis busts by DeviantArt artist luckyhellcat, a hunk, a hunk, of rotting flesh is beautifully created. Besides the bottom last Elvis, I'd be all on this undead. 

My Neck, My Back

So back to work means long bus rides and awkward naps. Any commute where you aren't the driver could use this fleecy pussy to support your neck and have some Zzz's. Grab the zombie cat travel neck pillow on Etsy for around $52 CAD. 

Bottle Zombie Jewelry

 If only it was simple enough to have an antidote to stop from becoming the undead but no go here! Might as well just wear this fashionable necklace from Etsy. Just around $24 CAD you can get this one to the left or get a custom one or another zombie choice like Zombie Blood or Zombie Virus. There are even earrings!!

Zombied cups

Although no longer available from what I can find and from a failed Kickstarter that I missed out on, these Zombied beer mugs and cups each bring a unique twist on brain freeze. The cups can even be used as a candle holder for the brain candle.

Thank you, Mario! Your quest is over.

 Kody Koala enjoys making weird video game sculptures and figurines. Here we get to see Mario thanked graciously for all his hard work saving Princess Peach by Zombie Peach consuming his brains on top of a dead mushroom and some bones. Probably Luigi. Bishes be cray.

See more pictures of his work here.

Don't Turn Out the Lights

OR Rick Grimes appears and not in a steamy dreamy kind of way...
Also I miss The Walking Dead. October is SO far away. How are you all getting by with no zombies? Me? Watching some other zombie shows like iZombie (see my recaps!) and having my zomlit. Never can get enough. 

Want this cover? Etsy is your go to!

Welcome to my World

Besides being a zombie enthusiast or a unicorn tamer, I am a Library Technician for one of the local school divisions in my city. Part of my job that I love being able to do is decorate our library and being involved with activities....and scaring children. JK!

Since I love me some zombies I have pushed the whole zombie awareness month to our students (come to the dark side!!) and so glad at the response and involvement! I want to share with you now some photos of displays, crafts, and my home away from home :)

 Today in fact we did a craft with the Grade 3-5s, some younger and older students as well, and the craft was to create zombie rocks. I got the idea here but with some collaboration came up with putting googly eyes on to speed up the process and all the rocks were painted ahead of time. Kids just had to pick a rock, draw on what they wanted it to look like, then glue some eyes and paint on some white.  The one to the left is my example kids had to follow.
I know...I'm a true Picasso.  

 Some of the wee ones were given the option to draw themselves as zombies from this template. I even provided a sample again. SO proud of how these turned out. 

 My lovely and most awesomest Teacher Librarian, friend, and co-worker pumped out these zombies shambling their way into our YA section. READ BOOKS! Creates good brains!

 I know it is all tiny but if you look close I added some cute zombies to my children's display. Nothing like zombies frolicking in the flowers and butterflies to bring a smile to your face.

 Our zombie rocks this afternoon are now displayed in the Zombie Awareness display. SO adorbs! Some kids got a little crazy with the white paint but truly impressed how these look.

Mine is in the middle facing out :)

This is just the display as a whole. To make kids really think about survival rather than brain eating corpses, I promoted the survivalist approach in the display and I'm hoping I didn't cause any nightmares this month, besides my own after seeing some of the kids' art.

I think it is really important to get kids talking about survival in any instant, to promote some crafting, get kids reading, use their imagination and to freakin have some fun in the whole process.

Mission complete.

Party Time!!

Wanna celebrate this month's Zombie Awareness the right way? Throw a little shindig with some of these.


Delicious Dead Zombie Chocolate Mold will be great for creating sweets that will have your guests dying to eat. Mix in a little green food coloring into your white chocolate and VOILA! dead sexy treats! Bonus: can use the moldings to make soap for your guests to clean up after their nasty-ass selves. 

For those Bloody Mary's or whatever you may be serving, keep them cool with the handy (teehee) Zombie Ice Mold. 

Need something to hold your napkins? Got some messy eaters? I know I need like a bib when I eat. 
This Zombie Napkin Holder lends a helping hand while adding the perfect touch of creepy.  

WOOT! Take it off!

Garters are now hit and miss at a wedding. Some choose not to have one or to provide a timid throw, while others bask in it, turning it into a little peep show. BOW CHICKA WOW WOW.

I am getting married in well over a year and I think I want one (I'll be classy with the toss) but I want to have a little secret and I'm all for themes. One of these garters from Etsy really shows some humor, nerdiness, and a twist on the boring white scratchy ones. 

  Keep Calm and Kill Zombies is a double garter. One for you and one for your relatives/weird friends. Sickos. This garter can be customized so I think more TWD would be sweet with some bows and wings on it. Daryl would be with you all that day. 

THE WALKING DEAD wedding garter is a bit more simple but still just as sexy showing some homage to the comic book.  Good classic choice.

YouTubers you should follow

WARNING: LONG POST

Now I may follow and subscribe to many YouTubers but the best ones that I go back to based on their zombieness are two lovely ladies that take major pride at being totally weird, gory, and being beautiful doing so (both inside and out). 


Madeyewlook became a fav of mine last summer and I have been a dedicated Lexbot since. Lex, a 21 y.o. licensed esthetician and self-taught make-up artist, likes to rock some nerdy and scary looks, showcasing the oddball she is and her creativity has blossomed more and more. Lex does not shy away from zombies either which is how I found her and one of the reason I come back to watch.

She has done:

• the walking dead valentine 

• Christmas zombie 
  
• bug zombie
  
• bite mark special FX
  
• AHS Tate Makeup/Zombie Boy
  

AND 

• a zombie sock
  

Lex has all kinds of tutorials for everyone that it is no surprise she has over 1 million followers. Take a look at one of her most resent posts. Follow her on basically all social media.

Mykie of Glam&Gore is also that mix of creepy beautiful that I cannot get enough of. Also she is cute and whacko! Love it! Mykie says:

"The swiss army knife of makeup tutorials. Beauty. Special Effects. Avant garde. Industry advice. Products. Foundational teaching. There is something here for everyone, and if you hate makeup, I invite you to at least laugh at my strange face."

I started following Mykie last summer as well and she is relatively new but making waves in the industry and her videos are something different. 
Both Mykie and Lex have awesome personalities and have a sense a humor, key to being likable in my books.  Mykie and Lew original and willing to inspire their looks for others. I enjoy Mykie a lot since she can take anything pretty and turn it into gore. Some of her zombie looks, which can all be found on her account, are:

• Pop Art Zombaes

• Lana Del Rey   (So entertaining)

• Speak No Evil

•  And my fav 2 things combined....

I highly suggest looking at both ladies works and following them. Their week to week updates will always give you a smile!

Forever in my brain heart

 I effin' love Etsy! Every day I discover something really cute and nerdy and ZOMBIE! From Canadian Albertan Amy, the shop owner of rapscalliondesign, comes these customizable zombie heart brain lockets! I am digging the idea of what every color you'd like and how Gothic Frankenstein folks are being showcased. For between $24-27 CAD, you can express your zombie love around your neck.


Click the jump to see some more zombie inspired jewelry by rapscallion including a zombie Chewbacca, zombie eyeball cameo, and zombie octopus. All adorable and nerdy!

When the snow melts

For those of us in the Great White North and prairies, winter is taking a sweet-ass nap and doesn't know when to leave. Kinda like that one friend that always crashes at your place after a night out.
When the snow clears and bunnies and kittens frolic around, so will zombies. Make your lawn zombie friendly with these bad boys.



Both from Amazon, the "Zombie Obama Taking a Selfie But Forgot His Phone" is 7lbs of ankle grabbing awesomeness. Great addition to the pet cemetery you have from your kids' goldfish accidents that keep happening. 

"Let there be light" will cast his wizardry ways and guide company up your driveway to be tortured by your wife's ukulele "concert". You'd wish you were undead like these guys after it.  

Who turned out the light?!

As one character faded away last night on the return of The Walking Dead, we need something bright in our future to keep on hammering on. Best way to shine some light than.....

Amazon

With your very own zombie hand lamp! This little gem will set you back over $100 but will be the talk when the grandparents come over and think you butchered one of their beloved friends from the senior home. 







Terminus was way worse than Woodbury. Tyreese was lucky to see them both. You can  now bask in the hope it gave them all with the Zombie Apocalypse lamp shade from Etsy for $81.

So how is everybody recovering this Monday? Who is feeling like our gang on TWD needs a break? I know I do from all the sorrow I am feeling still from the mid-season.
