I was reading this short story, The Case of the Four and Twenty Blackbirds, by Neil Gaiman this morning and I was inspired to create this t-shirt design. The story is a pulpy twist on classic fairytales and you really should check it out.
Dark bird silhouettes are perched upon this gothic t-shirt design. Don't forget that there are stickers, buttons, stationary, panties, hoodies, tote bags, baby clothes, maternity wear and gifts in the shop as well!

"Hip" Flasks (har har)
Here are a few of the most interesting flasks I've come across.
This pirate flask is the perfect thing to keep your grog in. Or orange juice to prevent scurvy (thanks for that insight, Casey).
The "meh." flask from thinkgeek has to be on this list.
I love this target flask. Kind of reminds me of Tank Girl.
(Via Retro To Go)
This is actually the flask that inspired me to make this post. It's beautiful in its simplicity.
(Via Better Living Through Design)
You can have your initials engraved on this huge flask in case someone steals it and you need to identify it at your local pawn shop.
It'd take one hell of a pickpocket to steal it in the first place though.
(Via Geekologie)
This porthole flask is pretty cool and you can see the contents through the front. Almost steampunk? Yeah, it's getting there.
This Don Ed Hardy Koi flask is gorgeous. It's a tattoo design on leather over a chrome flask. I do believe it also comes in light blue and tan as well.

MST3K Sweater and Beeblebears
This MST3K baby sweater is fantastic.
These are some Zaphod Beeblebrox inspired Beeblebears teddybears sold by the ZZ9 Douglas Adams fan club.
"A cute and cuddly teddy bear around 42cm tall, with three arms, two heads, and one eye patch, a beeblebear is a unique identity statement and a must-have item for all true Hitchhiker fans."

Aromatic Grilled Corn Stick Hot and Spicy Flavor
These weren't really hot and spicy but I couldn't resist the packaging.
They sort of tasted like what would happen if you mixed Doritos with Cheetos and that's not necessarily a bad thing (unless you don't like Doritos or Cheetos).
"Go! Go! Gold!"
Rawr!
