The Halloween Dinner Special A collection of murder, terror, dark deeds, the paranormal and folklore all in one room, all for one night only! The candles are lit, the Moon breaks forth from the clouds, its luminescence on the the gravel path, as the guests arrive. Who was invited? Who will Survive and what will be left of them? *Full credit of all accompanying artwork to OfGraveConcern FEATURED: ILNP's Salem (the perfect shade when you desire to channel your inner 'Evil Queen')4/1/2022
Salem Description of the shade- "Your identity may be a secret, but the focus is completely on you. Salem’s vibrant emerald color runs deep, with a divine shine that demands attention! The semi-translucent, jelly-leaning formula of our shimmer polishes allows for maximum balance, depth, and effect payoff." Full Opacity in 3-5 coats Wear is about 5 to 6 days with no large chips or need to retouch spots Where to start with this stunning shade? How about Once Upon A Time... It's hard to not think of fairytales and legends when watching the hypnotic shifts in this nail polish catch the light. In the bottle, Salem is a striking peacock emerald green and as you build the layers over top your nails you begin to see the dazzling flashes of obsidian black to purple and fiery red begin to appear and swirl together. It takes about 3 to 4 coats to reach full opacity and even a 5th coat wouldn't be discouraged. I'm learning that a jelly base takes some extra patience to build, however, the payoff is magnificent. I finally found my Evil Queen nail polish and I can honestly say this is the niftiest nail polish I have ever worn and can't recommend it enough. -Poison Bottle in photo purchased at OfGraveConcern ILNP Apologies for the delay, but somehow I think the following figures would naturally turn up fashionably late.

May I introduce you all to Valentombs by OfGraveConcern (a curious little shop I stumbled upon on Instagram which specializes in one-of-a-kind historical art inspired by the years 1348 to 1848). 💀I ordered the night of January 17th and received a shipping notification message almost immediately and then slid over to my frozen over mailbox to find my card that following week. My dark little heart skipped a few beats when I opened the envelope and removed the card themed around my favourite book- Wuthering Heights (Catherine and Heathcliff are home!). The size of the card itself is ideal (about the size of a traditional holiday greeting card) and the foldout "kickstand" on the back of the glossy stock paper is perfectly balanced and centres the tomb nicely for display. I have mine on my the back of my vanity table, facing the mirror. I love the incorporated quotes from my favourite novel and the research and little fine details this shop puts into its projects and artwork are all seriously applaudable. I now want a whole "graveyard" of Valentombs to display, haha. And wish fullfilled! Welcome to my little graveyard of Valentombs, haha. These 2 cards showed up out of the blue one cold day and I can't thank OfGraveConcern enough for them. Pictured is the Hamlet and Ophelia card and Lenore one as decked out in researched quotes from the play and story. Absolutely something unique to see, collect and recommend. OfGraveConcern |
