From tattoos to Cthulhu, amazing accessories by Creeps and Geeks (Photos)

Proving that you don’t have to spend a fortune to own unique accessories, Creeps and Geeks offers a large selection of hand-made rings, brooches, earrings and hair pins that are eye-catching and wallet-friendly. Ranging from $5 to $23, designer Cassie Bishop’s jewelry is often creepy, more than a little geeky and always super-cool.

Many of the pieces reference tattoo designs. Explains Cassie, “I’ve always loved tattoos, especially classic portraits and the old school Sailor Jerry style. I’m tattooed myself and have plans for many more.” Along with the ink-inspired skull and cross bone, anchor and mermaid designs, Bishop’s line also cleverly references such creepy-geeky imagery as Vespas, Siamese twins, Darth Vader, various zombies and a decidedly Cthulhu-esque creature.

The jewelry is silver-plated and mainly crafted from resigns and plastics. “All of these materials are very durable and lightweight, which make the pieces easy to wear and affordable,” says Bishop. She is always adding new designs and plans on expanding into bags and t-shirts as well.
