Christmas gift ideas for your resident creep:
I linked to this below in the Walter Potter post, but just noticed how interesting the rest of A Case of Curiosities is. Both pricy and grotesque, none of the original items there are going to be seen in my living room any time soon, I think.
Similarly (although without the dead animals), Rachel Larkin's Made Not Born is a series of handcrafted automata, dolls, and jack in the boxes. The pieces are beautiful and exceptionally well made and come highly recommended for the more morose child or post-adolescent.
