Tag: Memorabilia and other obsessions

One of my favorite Lemax pieces, and not just because I got it for a steal. Originally priced at $130 CDN as a 2018 Michael’s exclusive piece, I was in the checkout line at the Uptown Michael’s in Victoria a couple days after Halloween in 2018 with a bunch...

We’re getting closer to Halloween! And thus, another Lemax Spooky Town piece, Esmeralda the Great: Cool little piece in which the body rises up out of the coffin. This goes well with any witch theme or graveyards as well, and as an occultist, I have a soft spot for...

This week’s collection piece is again Lemax Spooky Town: https://www.lemaxcollection.com/villages/spooky-town/table-pieces/pumpkin-tree-house-14856: It’s a smaller piece, but with nice detailing. I have another treehouse piece, albeit not a Lemax one; I think my other one was a Tiny Treasures from Michael’s. And I have a few other pumpkin-related pieces, including last...

Like probably every week leading up to Halloween, this week’s Monday Memorabilia/Collections post is on a Lemax Spooky Town building, The Bad Apple Shop from the 2021 collection. Kinda goes with last year’s Spider Cider House, which I have. Or if one’s doing a carnival theme, it could go...

Well, I got my Lemax set-up done for this year, and I wanted to be sure to post some pics. First up, a carnival-ish area on top of the china cabinet in the back foyer: Then I have a small pumpkin and entertainment/music display on the sideboard in the...

Another week, another of the Lemax Spooky Town pieces. This one is the 2021 piece Zombie Records: Nice detailing, and of course I love the theme, being a music collector and an ex-college radio DJ etc. I know some people didn’t like that it doesn’t have a soundtrack, but...

I meant to write this one up a couple weeks ago but got sidetracked from working on this blog most of this month. Anyway, back at it now, and this was the first piece of 2021 Lemax Spooky Town that I picked up: Carnival of Carnage. It’s a taller...

Or rather: alleged Aerosmith backstage signage. I got this almost 8 years ago off of eBay for $20 and the claim was that it was a sign that Aerosmith used to stick up at the entrance to their backstage area. It came in one of those plastic sheet protector...

So… about that whole “buy less but buy better” thing… in the short term it sure can look like “buy more.” Maybe that’s just me, lol… but in any case, there’s been some good sales around so I now have 3 blazers en route, a skirt, a dress, and...

I’ve had these for years and I think I posted the Tommy Lee one (from one of his solo tours) a while back, but they caught my eye so they’re this week’s memorabilia post: And the flip sides: And, of course, Tommy Lee… classy as ever: I have a...
