Periodic TableWare is a fantastic new kickstarter that brings a little science to the table (literally).
Geek homes everywhere need these! Starting with this geeky blogger.
A mere six words nicely summarize my feelings about this project.

Brains: it’s what’s for dinner.
And speaking of, who thought a grinning peanut grinding his own brain out onto a platter was…a great idea for a product? I envision a young Hannibal Lecter having a lovely time with this. Don’t get me wrong. I’d like one.
For the one time every few years that I need to physically remove a staple:
What actually happens when you have a toothache. Next time you are bothered, understand that it is just the worms, demons and ghosts acting up beneath your enamel.
Mid-century America presents NARCISSISM: THE DRESS.
I don’t. But I’ve heard the stories.
Ohhhhhh…so that’s how you get a man. You glue him down! I’ve been doing it wrong.
A real book; I kid you not:
When a man is asked what is perfectly irresistible I highly doubt “wool mantilla” is the first item that comes to mind (click picture to enlarge).

Oriental Trading Co. has thousands of Halloween items. Here’s a goody bag of random treats I happen to like that I haven’t posted in previous roundups here or here (wow, there was some cool stuff in those old posts now that I look back!).
For the jewelry makers…
Hanging Bat Charms
Stickers (childhood, I miss you!)
Plus Bean Bag Bats (I have NO practical use for these…but they are just so darn cute).

Everything is better with a bit o’ Halloween involved, and hot sauce is no exception. So I bring you Halloween Hot Sauce.
I am high in the running for World’s Biggest Wuss when it comes to spicy food, so I’m a Spider Venom kinda girl.
Do you like your hot sauce haunted?

For super cheesy Halloween fare, I must admit Hallmark’s My Pet Ghost series is pretty neat.
My favorite is Maxwell McSpooky…the MAD SCIENTIST.
The bottle appears empty, until you push a button (not me in this video):

This aromatherapy bottle design looks like it was made with me (and my fellow anatomical geeks) in mind!
From the Van Der Lichaam is a Dutch aromatherapy company based in Delft, Holland:
“I designed a set of perfume bottles along with a box of perfume vials. This set of perfume packages are inspired by the Victorian cabinet of curiosities. Each go the illustrations on the back of the label relates to the aromatherapy of the scent. The jasmine + sandalwood fragrance is to increase romance. The bottle features an anatomical heart illustration. The rosemary + bergamot fragrance is blended to improve metal clarity. The bottle features a brain illustration. The eucalyptus + lemon fragrance is blended to improve respiratory health. The bottle features an illustration of a pair of lungs.”
I’ll take all 3…

I am a tremendous fan of vintage Beistle Halloween decorations, but they can be rather pricey on ebay (if you want originals).
For a more reasonable price range you can visit The Vintage Beistle Store and check out a bunch of reproductions.
Not exactly the same as the weathered old ones, but still…
Do you have a favorite iconic Halloween decoration? I’d love to do a post about reader favorites.

Here’s a cute little product for people who actually still use pens and paper in the digital age (I happen to be attached to the antiquated written list).
Wonderland sticky notes! You can’t see the one in back very well, but it’s a “While You Were Down the Rabbit Hole” office memo. How fun…
