We finally got the photo.

Back at our 5-year anniversary on May 1st, one of the three Jon bobbleheads was auctioned off for charity. Amy Doefer ended up with the winning bid, and we were able to donate the proceeds to the Chalet of the Golden Fleece Museum.

We chose the Chalet because it feels connected to the same thing we love about Rusty Raven — preserving the strange, the memorable, the personal, and the stories that make a place feel alive.

Michael Adler accepted the donation on behalf of the museum, and Amy officially became the owner of what is probably the world’s most unnecessary Jon collectible.

Thanks again to everyone who showed up, bid on weird things, and helped make the anniversary feel like something special.

Friendly reminder that you can still shop Rusty Raven from your couch.

Which has probably led to at least a few “well I wasn’t planning on buying that” moments.

Free in-store pickup too if you’re local.

You can usually tell pretty quick which shirt somebody’s gonna pick.

Not even because of the shirt itself. Just the look on their face when they see it.

Which one are you picking?

Half the fun used to be somebody standing in the kitchen trying to read the card out loud while everyone else completely lost it before they could even finish the second sentence.

We’ve been filling the racks with the ones that actually feel worth giving. Weird ones. Sweet ones. Slightly out-of-pocket ones. The kind that end up shoved in a junk drawer for a decade because throwing them away feels kind of wrong.

The best stuff for your house usually feels like it already belonged somewhere before it ended up with you.

Old lamps. Funky art pieces. Secondhand finds with just enough history on them to make a room feel less staged and a little more lived in.

Half the fun is finding the one thing you know nobody else is gonna have in their house.

It's a hard work kind of day...

These just came in and we’ve all been opening and closing them more than we should.

The clasp has a really nice snap to it, and there’s a chain option too.

They’re in the shop if you want to take a look.

We put these two next to each other and it didn’t help at all. The faceplant one’s ridiculous, the mug shot one’s kinda perfect.

Which one are you choosing?

We’ve got these puzzles in the shop right now.

They seem normal at first, but once you get into them there’s a little more going on than you expect.

Check them out and try one for yourself.
