Gargoyle Statuary

Another favorite place I visited while in Seattle was Gargoyle Statuary. This place was wicked awesome! I ended up ordering some rad pieces and having them shipped because I didn't want them to get hurt in my suitcase. I also got an amazing Mjolnir pendant necklace which I will be wearing constantly. They have some amazing local artists and people from all around the make beautiful items. They have such cool Gargoyles. The first time my husband and I discovered the shop was online when he was shopping for Gargoyles to get me. He ended up getting me an amazing Gryphon piece from this shop. They have an online store but if you can get to the physical shop they have much more than what you see online. The staff is incredibly friendly, chill and helpful. Honestly I have visited quite a few goth type shops and I can't stress enough how awesome the people in Seattle are. This is by far the friendliest goth scene I have ever happened upon. Literally all of the people I met in the shops there were friendly and happy to have me. Check out this store if you get a chance. Please support local businesses like Gargoyle Statuary. Check out some of their rad items below.

Edge of Circle Books in Seattle

I think a lot of people will love this store. This is by far one of my favorite shops I found in Seattle. The staff there is so incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. Some book shops I have been to were a bit pretentious but not this one. I loved the energy here. There is something for everyone. Among other books they had Aleister Crowley books, vampire books, candles and some beautiful statues and jewelry along with much much more. If you love occult and Pagan shops you will be impressed. I was particularly thrilled that they had a good amount of Norse items. I found a viking ship and some mjolnir pendants which I adored plus they had a Frigga pendant, some cool runes and a Norse statues as well. I love that they had so much to choose from. Such a cool vibe and friendly place.

This Baphomet statue was amazing!

Hecate triple Goddess statue. Gorgeous! 

Sooo much amazing jewelry. I wanted to buy it all :D 

Loads of candles and oils. 

A vast array of books. 

Outfit inspiration: Nymphadora Tonks in Harry Potter

I love Tonk's style in Harry Potter. She is married to Remis Lupin who is a werewolf and defense against the dark arts teacher. I love her wardrobe in the film. She is very gothic with a bit of punk added in. She wears a really cool bell necklace, which I recreated myself with velvet choker and bells I sewed on. I got them at Joanne Fabrics. Nymphadora's wand is actually a Harry Potter replica wand I purchased in England and for her broom I used a fighting stick with collected twigs tied/taped on the back. For her makeup I blended a gothic berry lip with some chap stick and did a thicker eyeliner with smudged purple shadow on top. It was a very affordable alternative to buying actual broom and I love to DIY a lot of my items when I'm dressing up. Enjoy!

My DIY necklace I made for my cosplay is now up for sale :>
Email me for details if you are interested before it is gone. I will post update if it sells.
