Bacon Soap & The Bacon Belt

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Archie McPhee knows which side of the bread their butter is on. It's on the bacon side.

Bacon Soap - $5.95 ea.
The enticing aroma of frying bacon in a bar of soap! Each marbled bar has the words "Bacon Soap" embossed on top and comes in a fancy 3-3/4" x 2-3/8" x 7/8" tin. The tin alone is worth the price!


Bacon Belt - $24.95 ea.
A soft vinyl Bacon Belt with a metal buckle fits waist sizes 30" to 40" which should give you ample room to grow out your bacon belly. I'm pretty sure every one of my friends will be getting this for a birthday or christmas gift sometime soon.

Skulls & Bacon Shirts and More!

I spent tonight playing around on Zazzle and creating some Skulls & Bacon merchandise. I've been dying to get my logo on a shirt and mousepad but I set up some other stuff such as aprons, mugs and stamps. Please take a look at the Skulls & Bacon store and please let me know if you have any feedback for me.

Here's a few examples:

If there's a product you would like and don't see it, just drop me a line!

Happy 4th of July!

I can always count on the Muppets to teach me new historical facts. If you've ever wanted to know the truth about the signing of the Declaration of Independence, well here you go!

How To Make Bacon-Infused Bourbon

Chow.com says Mojitos Out, Bacon-Infused Bourbon In.

This quick and concise video is from the NYC East Village bar Please Don’t Tell (PDT). The bartender makes creating Bacon-Infused Bourbon and the Bacon Old Fashioned look like child's play. I'm not a big fan of bourbon but with bacon and maple syrup, I'm down for a glass or two.

Natalia Brilli's Leather Skulls

I had never heard of Natalia Brilli, the award-winning Belgian-born accessories designer before today but now I want to know more! She does a superb job of wrapping things in leather. I'm trying to piece together more about her work since her website doesn't really say too much.

Here's my absolute favorite. I would kill for one of these bags but I can't even tell you how much they might cost, if they are even available to purchase.

Three skeletons, a drum set, guitar, amp and mic have all been expertly clad in black leather (requiring 500 hours of work to cover just one skeleton and 70 skins to cover the whole installation). It is currently on tour in the top fashion houses of the world. Apparently, every piece of the band is available for sale in limited editions.

Amazing work.

Skull Phone

I haven't had the need for a corded phone in a long time but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna need to break down and kick it old skool for this skull telephone. It's eyes flash when the phone rings and I'm hoping there's some hardware on the back so I can hang it on my kitchen wall. Seriously, I'm getting this.




An affordable $25 and only $3 to ship the skull phone from China.

P.S. If you'd prefer a stylish Bananaphone, Ernie and Bert can show you how it's done.

Support Bacon

My brother gave me this most amazing "Support Bacon" ribbon magnet yesterday:

My dilemma is...I'm afraid someone will steal it if I put it on my car. Everyone wants the bacon. I'd like to proclaim my love of bacon via my vehicle but I think it may end up being a fridge magnet or else it would probably be just a fond memory of the cool magnet I used to have.

He got it at Spencer's Giftsbut their website doesn't seem to have it. If I can find a place to buy it online I'll post a link but until then you may need to take a trip to the mall to sport one of these beauties on your car.
