It's gotten to the point where I can hear a man casually say "perfect place to keep your turkey talons" and not question it.

"Death positive"? Does someone else watch "Ask a Mortician", or just a coincidence? Great video as always ☺️

[@ardhanarisvara333]

I thought the same thing! Love her show so much.

[@naomiwendy2234]

Ooooh, this was like watching the shopping channel for Goths! 😄 Dig (oh, sorry)the glass encased bats!

[@lovemaykillyou]

The shelf coffin that’s too small could be use as table center piece laying down, you can put your Napkins, salt pepper, toothpicks, and any extras you keep around. I think it’ll look haunting and spooky 😂💙

[@deebenjamin5931]

I don't sell gothic food, but I do sell gothic themed aprons made from my grandmother's vintage patterns. I would happily provide my etsy shop link to anyone interested.

Watching your videos makes me feel so much better about being a little goth goblin that hoards shiny things and knickknacks. I'm realizing that we're all like this and I'm not alone.

[@CopyCatCo]

The spider web coffin shelf seems like it could be a good spice rack/spice organizer if you laid it down flat. The gaps between shelves look about as wide as a normal sized bottle you'd get from a supermarket.

[@v.c.groves2588]

I keep imagining Vincent Price's voice whenever Orville "speaks"

[@gothnik3641]

The glass coffins with the desiccated bats are gorgeous! Though the idea of someone having to weld those shut with such delicate creatures inside amazes, befuddles and slightly intimidates me! lol Also on the "coffin with tiny shelves" and "Gothic Cooking" notes.... a "Gothic Spicerack" perhaps?

[@1015SaturdayNight]

I made ring boxes from the Target dollar spot wooden coffins. Velvet rolled into rolls glued into a row makes a great ring holder inside. Painted them up and glued on cameos and jewels

[@megancanada8496]

I had seen a coffin shaped bath caddy online that was WAY out of my budget. I was talking to my dad about it and how it would be cheaper to make. He agreed. So he is making one for me in his free time. I am going to stain and antique (and a few coats of poly) it when I get it.

[@originalren]

Nothing makes me happy like gleeful coffin chatter makes me happy!

[@jessclark7658]

Idea: you could possibly use your small coffin "shelf" with purple background as a drawer or outintheopen organizer (if laid flat) for jewelry, baubles, craft supplies, or cosmetics.🦇

[@Chrisdead27]

I like coffins alot out of the style of Nosferatu the vampyre. Plus, I would love to sleep in a coffin not dead. Voltaire keep doing what you are doing and make gothic homemaking a inspiration to your friends and fos.

[@hasufinheltain1390]

The caddy has given me an idea for a small table. I also intend to make coffin-shaped raised beds for our backyard, but that won't happen until we get some other landscaping (er... flooding) issues worked out. Turns out herbs and graves are equally unfond of flooding.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

The lair is looking in fine form!

[@EmoInu13]

The little shelf with the purple spider backing is adorable! I saw it and the first thing I thought was "Jewelry Box!!" Lol

[@DrCarstairs]

I actually laughed out loud when you paraphrased one of my favorite quotes. Man I love you! "And woe to him inside a nonconformist clique who does not conform with nonconformity" (Eric Hoffer)

[@Amy-dl9vx]

I have a small coffin cabinet that I keep my perfume in. It was made by an artist for another artist he wanted to go out with. They went on a couple of dates, but I'm not sure how interested she was. I bought it from a shop that had a life sized Edward scissor hands figure, which was made by the same women who was given the coffin. She worked with Tim Burton in some capacity, but I don't remember anymore. I also have a coffin bookshelf my dad made for my 18th birthday.

[@macaroll]

oohh!! that's a very nice story! thank you for sharing! you're sooo lucky!

[@peachemoji]

My fiancé and I are getting married Halloween of 2020 (it falls on a Saturday next year!) and we're planning on our wedding ring box for the ceremony being coffin-shaped! :)

[@amethystsamia]

I can see my many tarot decks resting peacefully in some of those coffins. and I suspect they will be very soon! Thank you Aurelio! You’re the best!

[@klemmteastwood]

that first coffin review made me laugh, aurelio basically going “you know what? actually fuck this coffin” lmao

[@RoseKindred]

I sleep on the floor, have for the last 20 years. Now I am building my first bed, and yes, it is coffin-shaped.

[@1015SaturdayNight]

Voltaire, BPAL or other oil bottles can go on that small shelf :)

[@enslavedvessel]

That's a great idea. He can also save the middle shelf to make a ring holder with velvet rolls like most jewelry boxes have.

[@lexyvonfae3678]

You could use the small one with the spiderweb backing to display wicked rings of doooommmmmm! Love your show, love you, you rock.

[@suburbohemian]

You know, it's only in the past century that Carpe Diem was the motto. It used to be Memento Mori and death-related items were common in households, the phrase being in keeping since Roman times. The phrase and the items were meant to serve as a reminder that death will come so make your time count.

[@kingcornelius865]

You always manage to make my day! Is "Gothic Homemaking" really going on since yet three years?? Wow, it feels like yesterday.

[@MariaFrancesca]

Lying on its back the coffin shelf with spiders, which was too small for the wall, could probably be a nice holder for things like for example tea bags! Or put it on the wall anyway and use it to display your rings, rings are small enough for it!

[@Confetti_Head_Gore]

Genius idea :O

[@melissamcconnell9667]

Tea holder! Brilliant! And you could keep raw sugar or honey packets in it, too. Now I need one =)

[@arielwebb1523]

Hey, just met you at Dragon Con. I forgot to mention to you Manitou Springs Colorado’s Coffin Races. A few years back there was a large rainstorm and a coffin was dislodged from its resting place and slid down main street before they stopped it and reinterred it at the cemetery. Now, every year, they have a soap box derby style coffin race! I’m sure you would enjoy yourself, if you ever have time to go. Thank you for being so kind to my over enthusiastic self, hope you have a good day!

[@darktwistedwitch]

I want coffin shelves and cabinets!! After watching Coffin of the Damned and this episode I really want those!! But truthfully, all these coffins look amazing!!

[@amorfati8341]

Omg imagine how cool it would be to have a coffin shaped BED! I would never get up if I had one XD

I think I get why that hot sauce is in a coffin, cuz that's what you'll do when you eat it, you'll be coffin' xD Sorry, that one was drier than Orville xD

[@pentifire]

Coffins, coffins Everywhere! ♡♡ You could use that small coffin shelf as a jewelry separator. I have one similar that I use to sort rings and small bracelets into!

[@TG-th6mv]

Drooling over everything! My goth friend in high school had the CUTEST coffin shaped purse that I was always jealous of. But I have a collection of coffin containers of my own: one being the plastic one that the old Revenge-era My Chemical Romance action figurines came in. I keep spare safety pins in it. Living Dead Dolls also come in cute coffin boxes. Looooove.

[@MorriganJezebel]

Awww you're very welcome this made smile so much 😊.... For the record I did not stole that LOL.... There were only 2 available in California so I had them get shipped to my store and one came broken Lol! ... I'm very glad you like it 😊

[@kethe]

[@NatalieMasterton]

The first thing I though of when I saw the purple spider coffin was that some chunky, gothic rings would look amazing displayed on there. Might get one for my own rings! 😆

[@christinahaines2837]

The little coffin shelf I think would be perfect to keep maybe loose change in when you empty pockets. Or I’ve been looking for something like it to keep jewelry in on my dresser by my bed.

[@poesessed_8934]

Voltaire is 100% my personal hero, he's everything goth I've ever wanted to be and more. Unfortunately, it's difficult to be goth when my parents absolutely cannot stand goths and goth culture and frequently scold/mock me for embracing it (calling my makeup "raccoon eyes", punishing me for wearing anything with a skull, forbidding me to wear all-black outfits, lecturing me on how being goth is not something I want to ever associate myself with, etc.), but once I graduate college I hope to have a lair as incredible as his! A spooktacular episode, as usual. 🖤💀

[@SargeWolf010]

4:12 unholly cowz I'm in love XD

[@laylas9874]

IM SCREAMINB IVE WANTED THOSE SUNGLASSES AND THAT CASE FOREVER

[@Batzyyx]

Y'know, I'd love to create a coffin shaped pill organizer. A coffin with dividers setting up slots for 7-14 days. Something nice and classy to keep track of your medicine with, so you can put away those plastic pill organizers and bright orange pill bottles. The trouble would be trying to figure out how to make each slot independent of each other so that way you can turn it over and dump a day's pills in your hand, without dumping out all your other pills for the other days, or having to awkwardly finger around in the box trying to gather up your day's pills.

[@drakonyanazkar]

These were so gorgeous, oh my goth! And that cabinet was such a bargain! I pay more than that for industrially made stuff around here. I hope you gave that woman a hug and a good talk, for she deserves it.

[@arimewillow4278]

Target coffin, plastic, put dried flower petals in it and little soaps for the bathroom.

[@jaynesixx2185]

I would love the sun glasses case and the hot sauce coffin. Love the little coffins. I had a standing coffin that had draws in it and parents threw it out. I have a grey coffin left with a cross on the top. Love the big coffin for $18. Yes much better place for the silverware. I think of The Rolling stones when I hear paint it black. Love the shelves. Oh wow that is the best bath caddy I have seen

[@taxicabmessiah]

I’m moving into a new room soon and I’m well, quite gothic and i want a gothic room. This series helps thank you

[@alexandriazahirniak8028]

I use the purple target coffin for my ever after doll. She fits nicely.

[@FaeoreNeko]

I love it! Lucky me I stayed up all night!

[@caleightilson8030]

Lights that have mirrors like the wall sconce he showed are a great idea if you want to paint a room black because the mirror will reflect the light around the room. Black absorbs light so it's important to find ways to keep a room lit

So next we will see a gothic closet tour...

Gothic jewellery could fit on that small shelf.

[@amygonzalez3734]

This is my favorite video, need one for my nail polishes💅

[@ladycreepshow]

You might have used the small coffin with purple spider paper that you couldn't fit anything on by now... but I just had an idea I would do if I had it : Make it a ring holder. Put tiny black dowels (or chickens bones) at the bottom of each shelf sticking up.. maybe 3 or 4 per shelf depending on the shelf, and then you can put rings on them. Just slide it on the dowel and it's a great way to showcase rings. I might have to do this now if I can get a shelf like that haha. I got lots of spooky rings that I have to dig through on a daily basis.

[@raemoore658]

Hooray for death positivity! #deathling #deathpositive

[@suburbohemian]

You could use that purple spidered shelf as a snack server. It looks like it could hold assorted nuts/Chex/mini pretzels, etc.

Up all night with the sleep half the day, up all night schedule I've wandered into (Am I becoming a bit more Gothy? Time will tell. ;) Happened to flip on IG just as the sky lightens, signaling that it is time to retreat.... and find your post for this video. So I have endured the gradually lighter sky just for you, my dear. (Note I didn't say sunrise, as I have only seen the sun once in nearly three weeks due to weather conditions.) But hey! More ideas for adding bits of Goth to my den make staying up a little longer worth it!

[@ItsLaurenE]

This just reminded me I have a bin full of those small coffins from Michael's to DIY. I was living for making jewelry boxes with them and didn't get around to it. You had my heart with the 2 coffins with the bats. Beautiful work on the bats. My favorite species of all. Lol can I take a shot of water or soda? I'm in my 8th year of sobriety but will participate in the fun. 🤘🖤🤣🦇
