The Apothecary Cupboard

If you’re looking to escape the heat or maybe even a little rain, want to avoid the crowds, or just spend some time somewhere a little weirder, we’ll be here from 10 AM to 6 PM!

Come wander through crystals, oddities, art, books, tarot, handmade ritual tools, unique gifts, and all the wonderfully strange things that make life a little more magical.

Our doors are open to everyone. No matter who you are, where you come from, or who you love, you’ll always have a place here.

Happy Fourth. Be kind to each other, stay safe, and we’ll see you at The Sinister Apothecary.

Every time we think we’ve run out of room, we somehow find space for one more weird thing.

Giant crystal towers. Handcrafted besoms. Ritual bells. Wands. Herbs. Crystal daggers. Jewelry. Mirrors. Minerals. Stickers. Prints. Magnets. Patches. Pins. Little oddities you didn’t know existed until you picked them up.

If you’ve never been to the shop, these pictures barely scratch the surface.

Come poke around. Open drawers. Ask questions. Pick things up. Take your time.

We built this place for people who love finding things they weren’t looking for and for the ones who have been searching everywhere for that one perfect item, only to finally find it here.

Just be warned: most people come in for one thing and leave with five 🙃

The Apothecary Cupboard will be back for The Bizarre Bazaar in September at the Porter County Expo Center ✨

This is what a bone reading with me actually looks like.

It’s not random. It’s not guesswork. And it’s definitely not just “throwing things and seeing what happens.”

Every piece you see here has a role. Where it lands matters. What it lands next to matters. What’s grouped together, what’s isolated, what’s pushed to the edge… all of it tells a story.

When I read bones, I’m looking at three things at the same time:

What you’ve been carrying from the past
What’s actively affecting you right now
And what’s starting to unfold next

A lot of what comes through isn’t loud. It’s the stuff that’s been sitting under the surface. Old patterns. Unprocessed situations. Things you thought you moved past but are still showing up in how you move through life.

This isn’t about being dramatic or mystical for the sake of it.
It’s about understanding yourself clearly.

We take what shows up and actually talk through it.
Why it’s there.
How it’s affecting you.
What you can do with it.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, repeating the same cycles, or just can’t quite figure out why things feel off, this is where we start making sense of it.

Bone readings are available in person or virtual.

If you’ve been curious, this is your sign to book.

A whole lineup of magic, mischief, and a little bit of main character energy await you at The Sinister Apothecary this weekend!

Each of these handcrafted oils is paired with its own original oracle card, complete with upright, reversed, and shadow meanings, journal prompts, history and lore of the character on the bottle, plus a ritual designed to help you actually work with the energy, not just smell good doing it.

So whether you’re drawn to protection, power, healing, banishment, confidence, or embracing your beautifully unhinged side, there’s something here calling your name.

This isn’t just oil.
It’s story, symbolism, ritual, and intention all bottled up in a simple way to help you enjoy a routine of daily magic!

Come explore them for yourself at The Sinister Apothecary this Friday + Saturday from 11–8:30 PM and Sunday from 11–6 PM.

Your next obsession might already be waiting on the shelf.
