ExoCab and Friends at the Mourning Market

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!

Super Bowl? What Super Bowl?! You aren’t busy with television, really. Get ready to weep for joy and get your butt to Club Motor, ’cause ExoCab and crew will be appearing tomorrow (Sunday, February 7) at Seattle’s Mourning Market, which is a FREE craft fair for all things dark, gloomy, spooky, and otherwise ooky. We’ll be there from 12-5 pm, at 1950 1st Avenue South (98134).

Besides all the fantastically shiny gothy stuffs, yours truly will have beetle elytra earrings, vacuum tube jewelry, photo prints, and pretty things to attach to your noggin. Joining me will be Noah Beasley of Improbable Cog, purveying metal and nylon jewelry made with love by robots.

I’m also pleased to announce that we’ll be vending the first wave of clothing from our upcycled fashion line, Gypsy Mansion.  Noah, Finn von Claret, Bergen McMurray, our gang, and I have been hard at work, sweatshoppin’ to bring you one-of-a-kind, hand-sewn, uniquely dyed and embellished clothes in a variety of sizes.

So, come on out and buy something handmade for you or your sweetheart, and do swing by our booth and say hello!

Thanks!

This is Chance, who should be cloned a million times. The extra hand belongs to Finn. I plan on posting more of these images as the week progresses.

On Pointe With Von Claret

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008

If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind gift and you’d like to assist one of my friends and models in acquiring new and much-needed dance gear in exchange, bid on Finn Von Claret’s autographed ballet shoes:

This auction is for my size 9 autographed Gaynor Minden pointe shoes. These shoes have traveled with me and have been used in every Abney Park show since I was inducted into the band…I have signed both shoes, and now I retire them, and offer them for auction to help with the cost of a new pair. Thanks for all of your support and love!

- Ms. Finn Von Claret,

pointe shoes

Finn gave me one of her well-loved toe shoes for a shadowbox over which I’ve labored meticulously for months. Mine’s just baby pink, but here’s your chance to score her original Abney Park silver glitter shoes for your own collection.

Many thanks from both of us.
