OK, maybe not. But I did get a little jealous when I came across この記事 where I discovered a local San Francisco artist who is charging $60 a pop for “insect spreading classes”. I wonder how many really show up to the monthly class? This just in, Chris Grinter is offering an insect spreading class for merely $49.99! I’d probably make it all sciency though and no one would show…
But while you’re learning the ways of pinning you can pick up your creepy victorian taxidermy character.

Have you been to Paxton Gate? I went about 6 years ago and was amazed by their eclectic collection. It’s worth a visit, if only to run your fingers through bowls of taxidermy glass eyes.
I haven’t been yet, but it looks like they have lots of really weird stuff! (so i’ll have to go now)
