10 Things To Fit Your Domestic Skeletal Aesthetic

So my little sister, whom I love and adore, is pretty adamant that she wants me to get married...like yesterday. Specifically, she wants me to marry one of my dearest friends because my sister loves her as much as (if not more than) she loves me. My sister sleepily demanded a couple months ago that I had to hop a bus for a four hour trip to this friend and propose immediately. It was adorable! When I told my friend about this, she joked that we'd have the more skeleton based decor than any other house because we love skeletons and Halloween (we literally met through a Halloween group and hope to visit the Museum of Death together one day). So if you're anything like us, here's some ideas for your own "domestic skeletal aesthetic".

1. Freezer Skull

It may chill some people to the bone to see skulls everywhere, but not you or I! Perhaps a freezer skull like Henry here may freeze others in terror but it seems pretty cool to me.

2. Sitting Skeletons

These are advertised as being meant to sit on computers, but why stop there! Set them on the bathroom mirror, ledges of the shower or tub, any sink, anywhere they can be lined up and not in the way! A spot of spoopy anywhere!

3. Jewelry Holder


If you've got jewelry, why let it get tangled in a box or on top of any flat surface? Use this helping hand instead! (Or a more affordable version!)

4. Coaster Holder

Not just your jewelry, have a hand holding your coasters too! Who can resist the irony of something dead in the living room?!

5. Salt and Pepper Shaker Holder

Why have your salt and pepper shakers anywhere but cradled in the arms of this skeleton?!

6. Bottle Opener

Hey, two heads are better than one, especially when neither can talk! Crack open a cold one with this!

7. Skull Shots

These may be shot glasses but there's a variety of dishware shaped like skulls! Just imagine how often you could say, "I had this prepared a-head of time"! (Well, unless you run things late then it's more like "I should've thought a-head"!)

8. Skull Doorknob

These are a-door-able and you're lying if you say you didn't chuckle at that pun. Perfect for any door and there's several vendors who make skeleton based drawer and cabinet handles too! Plus! These! Light! Up!

9. Candle Holders

I personally find these ones funny as they seem to worship the candles or cower under their weight. But there's other designs that may suit your skeletal interests more!

10. Skull Sheets

Of course, what skeletal home would be complete without bed sheets to match! I love these ones that have the skull incorporated without being terrifying (I love skeletons and macabre and dark humor but...I'm also scared of the dark and the inevitability of death...yeah not sure how that works either)! There's so many designs out there if you look for them!


I hope you saw something you might like to put in your own home someday! (I know I'm ready to break the bank over these...except I really shouldn't juuuust yet haha.)

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
