January has been: puttering around the house, playing word games, and attempting to stay somewhat hinged.

I got to see this painting of Saint Sebastian this weekend and I was so inspired by it. Sebastian was an early Christian martyr and survived his (first) execution by several arrows. He’s a symbol of perseverance, courage and strength. Feels very fitting at the moment.

I miss my spider friends. 😭

I’m redecorating my sunroom. I think Obie approves.

Hey! Just wanted to introduce myself since I’m going to be on creeping around here (again):

✷ I'm Violet. I'm a witchy weirdo living in New England with my husband and two mischievous cats.

✷ I would describe my style as if the Golden Girls lived in the Addams Family house in the English countryside and practiced witchcraft.

✷ I'm a lover of the strange and purveyor of the weird.

✷ I'm a chaotic crafter and graphic designer. In a former life, I was an art photographer (maybe I'll get back to that someday).

✷ I'm proudly Puerto Rican, Irish, and Polish.

✷ I'm pretty bad at remembering things about myself when prompted so I hope this is sufficient for now.

✷ I'm always looking for new weirdo pals so please tell me a bit about yourself!
