The Etsy Dark Team holds a monthly theme Exhibition of art, fashion and more online. This month's theme is March of the Dead!

New items are added to the Exhibition throughout the month, every month so please check back often! Past months Exhibitions can be seen here.

THE GIVEAWAY:

Go check out this month's Exhibition , then leave me a comment here about  your favorite item and what you like about it.

That's it! Your comment here enters you into the giveaway. At the end of the month I'll randomly choose a name from my e-hat.

Please be sure to leave a way for me to contact you if you're not a Blogspot user (Myspace, email, Etsy shop, etc)!

 

The lucky winner will get their very own:

♦ OOAK hand stitched 4" tall Not-So-Fresh Zombie Pin from Static White's Stitchery (yours truly). It'll even arrive in it's own little body bag that doubles as a tissue holder when unoccupied.

♦ Debut CD from the up and coming Rock band The Redding Shift.

♦ And sample goodies from members of the Etsy Dark Team!

 

Update: Notice the new photo?? The purple boxes are an awesome mystery gift from GypsyEye!! I, of course, know what's in there and I promise it is lovely gift for a lucky lady. Don't fret guys! If a guy is chosen as the winner I have a secondary, just as mysterious gift for you, if you prefer.

Does this mean there is a second prize? *Gasp* Maybe. Maybe ;) You'll just have to enter and find out.

This is SOOOO hard! Seriously it is a toss up between Franken Mary and Snitch. Those are wonderful!

Ok so.. Ok Franken Mary 1st and Snitch a very close 2nd. Just wonderful!

(maybe I should post Frankie or Eddie in the exhibition. lol)

OH my gosh this is so hard to choose!! I LOVE Snitch. It's like a frozen scene from a movie. It's just so rad- really tells a story.

And since everyone else said "Snitch" as well, I'm going to choose a second- which is without question the Zombie My Little Pony!! It's like all of my childhood memories but made AWESOME. :)

Amazing stuff!

Unknown said...

Oh my goodness, so many to choose from! I instantly fell in love with the belt buckle by Gypsyeye and the shrine by Spookymama (cute and kitsch at the same time!), but my favorite would have to be the earrings by HandmadeHorrors. The little girl looks Gorey-esque, and the crackle effect that's shown on the etsydarkteam page makes the earrings look like they're antiques. I wonder why they look slightly different on the seller's page?

Static White said...

Yve, Xane & Dane - *strike best scolding mother stance* Yes, you should have your wonderful items in the Exhibition! ;)

Sheila - different pics/batches I think. HH's stuff sells pretty well so I doesn't stick around long!

My favorite from this month's March of the Dead Exhibition is the FrankenMary Statue by spookymama. What can I say... I am Spanish, was raised Catholic, and was born in San Antonio. It is in my blood. Beautiful piece!

I must say though, the Lost Love print by WickedFascinations and the Etched Mirror Skull Pendant by Kitcameo were very close seconds. And I seriously want to own and wear the Dead ID Link Bracelet by HandmadeHorrors. Hehe :D

Okay, I'm giving some stuff for the contest, so I don't think I can be in the drawing, but I still want to share my faves. Dolls scare the shit out of me even without creepifying, but I seriously want to have Bambi Horror Prop Doll by DLMarian so I can put her in my sister's closet when she's not looking! Also, I LOVE the Battle by VooDooWilly.

nitebyrd said...

The Lost Love print is my favorite, and Snitch runs a close second.

Tiffany Westlund said...

So many submissions this month! and such great ones too...
but, the belt buckles by Gypsy Eye really grabbed me and wouldn't let me focus on too long on anything else.

Mrs. Evils said...

FrankenMary by spookymama! But also the Dia De Los Muertos Deer Print by illustratedink. Too much cool stuff this month...way too hard to pick a favorite!

chickendog said...

i have to say FrankenMary Statue. It is beautifully wrong in every possible way, infact i think i'm going to put it in my blog of many silly things:

Although her shops in vacation mode, come back soon spooky mama!

Myke Amend said...

Snitch is my fave, those cameos (both sets) coming really close behind. Nice selection BTW - so many things to choose from ^_^

Zombie Edward said...

How can I possibly pick ONE favorite? VooDooWilly's Skellie fairies are simply to die for and mrsevils' Barbie zombies are amazing! I must say that TatteredRags' Zombie Rag Doll is just adorable and anything AgonysDecay makes is fantastic!

Mikki said...

Do I really have to choose just one?! My personal favs are VooDooWilly's "Snitch", "The Battle" and "Loss". I also like spookymama's "Edgar Allen Poe magnetic shrine" and "Praying Hands FrankenMary statue". DLMarian's "Limited Edition GOTHIC Dead PRINT of Vampire VONDELIA DOLL". WickedFascinations's "Lost Love - 5x7 Print". And last, but not least illustratedink's "CORAZON MARY Bust - Day of the Dead Wall Sculpture - MADE TO ORDER". All of them are really great, but those are my favorites!!!

gypsyeye said...

I love the Loss scene by VooDoo Willy! It's completely different than anything I've seen for awhile, so beautifully dark and cryptic!!

Snap Dragon said...

Wow this is really hard, They're all so amazing!!!

I would have to say though that the Bambi Horror Prop Doll Created By: DLMarian really does stand out to me.
She's just so darn creepy :)
I also really really love the Zombie mini's they just look like a ton of fun!

thegirlwhowasacat said...

Oh! I love giveaways! aaand I love the months theme.
I could donate a lil something for the winner too, maybe a necklace or a ring. Let me know.

My favourite is the Zombie My Little Pony :)

Digital Misfit said...

wow so many wickedly wonderful items!
My favorite is Zombie Rag Doll by TatteredRags. I love the creepy black hand stitched details. I am a huge fan.

This was a REALLY hard decision, but I'm going to have to go with "Snitch" by VooDooWilly. Simply amazing. I love every single thing about it. If I had my way, it would be a permanent fixture in my living room.

morbidmo said...

This was really hard. I think I am going to pick the Memento Mori Skull Cameo Bag. My new collections lately have been bags.

Anonymous said...

So much creepy cuteness! It's a tough choice, but I have to go with the Zombie My Little Pony by fugsly. If I had the money, I'd buy him to befriend my Bat Pony.

I'm new to the dark side team and etsy as well. I'm hollyhorrorshow on there, but you can reach me at blacklacewings85@aol.com. Thanks!

Owww!!!

Super cute stuff. I'm excited to see what the mystery gift is!

SomethingDreadful said...

Yep, tough choice indeed. I have to say my favorite is T3's Newly Deads. They're expressions are total win.

The team had a really awesome exhibition this month! Looking forward to April. ^__^

TotusMel said...

That was a hard one, I immediately wanted the momento mori cameo bag & would absolutely carry that around, but I also loved Snitch, what an amazing piece of disturbing art!

SyntheticSeduction said...

My favorite item is the Memento Mori Skull Cameo Appliqued Tote Bag from beanbun. I have a ton of her bags, and they are all made very well. I really love the skull design and the little ribbon is such a cute touch!

kitrona said...

We have to pick just one? Oh dear! There are so many cute things... I love The Grim Reaper My Little Pony, the Poison Bottles, the Ghostly Slit Skirt, there's something about the Zombie Mommy that just is adorable, and the Silver Skeleton Parasol is awesome (though I have no idea where I'd ever use it). The Dia De Los Muertos Deer Print is also amazing; but I think my favorite is the Gothic Bat Plush. There's so much interesting stuff there!

Unknown said...

Ooooooo there are so so many cute things this month. I think my fave is Lost My Head Zombikin Created By: BlackthorneRose!!! It is so adorable.
