tbh like papi/mami is a term of endearment like it’s hardly sexualized with hispanics??? we call our parents that??? and our partners??? we call little kids papito/mamita and it’s not sexualized at all and when non-hispanic people do it ?? it’s sexualized for the most part and meant to sound hot or some shit and it’s so ugly lmao

I had a white girl call me papi one time while she was riding me and I never went so fucking limp in my life. I faked coughing to get out of it 😧

I’M HAVING A SALE ON MY ETSY!

I’m moving countries and starting student life in two weeks which sadly means having to close the shop indefinitely. Not only do I really need the money for the move but I would also love to see these hats go to new loving homes instead of storage boxes!

All the products are one-of-a-kind headpieces handmade by me with proper millinery techniques and materials. They are high in quality, will stand the test of time, and each headpiece comes in a beautiful flock paper box for safekeeping.

So head down to the Macabre Millinery Etsy shop and use the code SPOOKYLOOP  to get 15% off your purchase! And please help spread the word right here on Tumblr by reblogging. Thank you!

DIY Marie Antoinette’s Necklace Tutorial from Beadaholique.

This is not a beginner’s project because there are only written instructions for this tutorial. I’ve posted DIYs for all the techniques used for this necklace on my truebluemeandyou blog like wire wrapping with headpins, but you can find these tutorials by searching google and YouTube.

While some might argue that there are better ways to wash one’s face and hands than with a reminder of our mortality and the transient nature of life in general, we think these beautifully macabre bars of skull-shaped soap are pretty awesome.They’re called the Art of Dying soaps and they’re the work of Monterey, CA-based artist Eden Gorgós.

Eden just launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the creation of sets of skull-shaped Memento Mori soaps and lotions and the more ornate Vanitas bar soaps. All of these soaps and lotions are handmade in small batches using resin molds that Gorgós sculpted herself.

“Soaps are made with coconut oil, colored with natural clay/herb/flower, and formulated to moisturize without sacrificing lather. All but the white soaps are scented with a combination of essential oils. Solid lotions and unisex cologne are made with shea butter, beeswax, and calendula, arnica flower, and chamomile infused almond oil (and scented with a blend of essential oils).”

These delightfully creepy personal cleansing products come in a variety of tantalizing scents such as Roseclove, Lavender Musk, Sagebirch, Rosemarymint, Lemonginger, and Birch-Mint.

Visit the Art of Dying soaps Kickstarter page for additional photos and information.
