Memento Mori Etsy Picks

Memento mori is Latin for ‘remember that you have to die’ and is used in art as a reminder of the inevitability of death. While on the surface it’s pretty morbid, I find it kind of peaceful.

Memento Mori skull enamel pin

This skull enamel pin from katnippillustrations (UK) is very kawaii. I think it’d look especially cute on a jacket lapel. I really like the backing card too.

Memento Mori tarot card sticker

I’ve recently been getting interested in tarot cards, so I thought this death tarot sticker from meinmyownheadx (EU) is perfect. They have lots of different tarot cats, all of which are so cute!

Memento Mori stickers

Patchdeadly (USA) has a cool range of patches including a 3D skull patch. I would add it to a jean jacket or a rucksack, or maybe an ita bag?

Memento Mori art book

This horror art book features lots of illustrations by Katiewhittleart (UK). The artworks were created between 2016 and 2019, I think it’s awesome to see how the artist changes in that time. I also absolutely love the colour palettes.

Memento Mori skull earrings

These neon pastel skull earrings from TaphosArt (USA) would make a really interesting accessory to any outfit. They’re also a ‘memento amare’, which is a reminder to love.

Memento Mori zines

This zine from thankthelordstore (UK) also folds out into an a3 poster so you can showcase all the art on your wall. I particularly like the angel.

Memento Mori skull sticker

For an affordable option, there’s this skull vinyl sticker from Stacey McEvoy Caunt (UK). I really like Stacey’s art style, you should check out the rest of her store too.

    I love peaceful decorative skulls, and am a fan of momento Mori too, so this was a nice one!
