Welcome to the Attic Shoppe Trading Company! The spooky days of autumn have arrived and we all eagerly waited for it for an entire year. Oh the macabre anticipation! And for the Attic it has been an even larger sense of anticipation because it’s our….
That’s right! 10 years ago October 1st, 2013 Bethalynne officially launched her new shoppe with family help. The first item offered was her Isidore Tarot deck. The deck did very well and still draws positive attention a decade later. The shoppe has seen some ups and downs since Bethalynne is the heart and talent of the shoppe and its products and has began her transplant travels during those years. Speaking of which:
Bethalynne is not quite well enough at the moment to throw herself into the start of the Halloween season. She has actually been doing fairly well compared to Octobers past. However, a small catheter infection she caught relatively quick has been getting antibiotic infusions for a few weeks now. The antibiotics have been draining and causing her mild mental fog. The treatments were coming to a conclusion. The last step was getting her old catheter removed and a new one placed in the same spot. After the procedure concluded the doctor was unable to get the bleeding to stop. She lost a great deal of blood before she was admitted to the hospital for platelets and blood transfusions and further attempts to stop the bleeding. She will hopefully be released from the hospital in a few days and after a brief recuperating period she will be back to start rolling out all the unique specials for this year, along side of a few of the limited editions from previous years. We wish her well and are doing our best to support her and keep October around here going for her and you.
In the meantime we will be posting new apparel designs for the season. We also have a few wonderful dark gift boxes–most of which are Lydia Tarot themed. Bethalynne’s unique display skulls have gotten their packaging and flare. We have a very wonderful wood burning machine that we’re using for customized tarot boxes, ouija boards, rune boards, and the like. So pop back in daily to see what’s new. Till tomorrow, have a wonderfully autumn colored October first. — The Shoppe Ghost Nigel
