Coming Soon: My Neighbor Totoro, X-Files and RHPS!

It's been a while, but I have got some stuff up my sleeves!  Here's a little sneak peak of some things hiding out in my drafts to be posted soon!

Yay!  We've got Mulder's poster from his office in the X-Files, the famous Rocky Horror Picture Show pout, and two from My Neighbor Totoro!  

These should be listed sometime this week, so check on Twitter, because it will be announced when they are!  

New Items! New Listings!

Annnd I'm back.  And guess what?  Totally married now.

In other news, I've got a whole bunch of awesome goodies queued up in my drafts, and a bunch more that still need to be completed/photographed.  So stay tuned, because once school is out this summer- I expect there to be a LOT of good things happening with GG.

For now, here's two of my favorite all-new listings.  Well, maybe not all new.  You'll recognize the images- but the item is all new!  Hair clippies!  Adorable little snap closure hair clips that you can wear to subtly (or not so subtly) flaunt your love for your favorite games!  So far, I've got Portal and I've got Mario.  So far so good, right?  And pretty much super cute!

Nostalgia Time! 90's Nicktoons!

If you were anything like me growing up in the 90's, every day was Nicktoons day on TV.  And you still hold SO MUCH LOVE for them now that you're a (finger quote) "Functioning Adult Human."  But good news for you!  Hey Arnold!, Rocko's Modern Life, AAAHH!!! Real Monsters and Rugrats are all on Netflix instant.  And General Goods now is introducing these fun new Nicktoons themed necklaces/pendants, kicking it off with two of my personal favorites- Rocko's Modern Life and Quailman from Doug!

Find your Fandom

I feel things passionately. I fall quickly and completely into love- with TV shows, with literature, songs, video games, pictures of cute animals, delicious food, and my fiance (that's a long story involving a 3,000 mile distance culminating in one of those adorable rom-com airport scenes, but that's a totally different story not meant for an etsy bio). There are other people who feel passionately too- they make up those wonderful fandoms. Whether it's a video game you've been playing since you were 13, a comic book that you followed as it evolved to the silver screen, or a TV show that you'd heard a lot about but just finally sat down and marathoned all 7 season on Netflix- I'm hoping I've got you covered here. And if I don't, shoot me a line and send me a suggestion- I've done it before and nothing makes me happier than getting you what you want when you can't find it anywhere else. 

Find your fandom here.

Stay tuned, there are a lot of amazing things coming soon.  And more of your old favorites, seen for the first time in new ways.

Festoon & Flourish will be your source for unique gifts and wearables.  Featuring handcrafted earrings, wire-wrapped jewelry, and customizable "Wearable art"- I design it, and you get to choose how you want to wear it.

Some items will be moving from General Goods to Festoon & Flourish- Rose Stud Earrings, for example, will now be located in F&F, as well as wreaths and candles.  GG will still be your one-stop show for all things gamer/geek/fandom related- and F&F is for the non-gamer in your life!
