Enjoy our action-packed gutsy new sticker sets, Have You Got Guts? and These Glands Are Your Glands, each with 14 stickers for just $7 bucks each! Outdoor-quality 3.25″ vinyl stickers are perfect for your water bottle, your car, or your friend’s car! Ridiculous illustrated versions of the heart, liver, lungs, bladder, brain, uterus, kidneys, intestine, pancreas, stomach, spleen, and gallbladder along with our usual groan-inducing puns. Includes bonus eyeball and skin stickers! Great way to share the magic of the body with friends or your kids. Even if you forgot what the spleen does, our silly drawings will help jog your memory (if you need more help, there’s always Google).
The gland sticker set contains super silly illustrated versions of the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, hypothalamus, pineal, sebaceous, testicle, prostate, ovary, mammary, salivary gland, sweat gland, adrenals, and thymus. These might be the weirdest stickers you ever own. Get ‘em both, stick them in a blank book and voila, instant anatomy primer for preschoolers!

Stick It To Your Ribs

It took blood, sweat, and, yes, a few tears, to put together a real honest-to-goodness paper I Heart Guts wholesale catalog and here it is, ready to go to the New York International Gift Fair in January, our first show of the year. We’re actually at booth #30002 in “New York’s Newest” at Pier 92, which is sort of a holding-zone for new people at the show. Anyway, I’m excited to finally have a real catalog, so if your retail store needs one, contact us and we’ll mail you one! It’s even sorta semi-educational, you can learn a little bit about the thymus and other wonderful glands on the lapel pin page!

We’ve got some new Heart of Gold pins in stock, they’re bigger (now about the size of a quarter instead of a nickel) and better — or at least we hope you think so.
The Popular Pineal
Posted: Tuesday, March 16th, 2010
The pineal gland may be small, but it looms large in the minds of literary types. Did you know the pineal gland was a source of fascination to philosophers like Descartes, who called it the “seat of the soul“? The pineal gland captured the imagination of authors like Hunter S. Thompson, whose character Dr. Gonzo feared the psychoactive properties of pineal gland extract in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. “Man, I’ll try just about anything, but I’d never in hell touch a pineal gland,” Dr. Gonzo said in the movie version of the book. In his novel Broom of the System, David Foster Wallace’s fictional corporation Stonecipheco worked on putting a pineal additive in baby food. More pop culture pineal stuff here.
Doctor’s Orders
Posted: Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009
They’re stocking candy canes at the grocery store, and our local Bed Bath & Beyond’s got plush singing rabbis (I’m not making this up), so that must mean the holidays are near. Gearing up for the holiday season before Thanksgiving fills me with disgust, but being the gut-monger I am, I suppose I must jump aboard the holiday retail bandwagon and remind you to check out our Gutsy Gift Guide. It’ll tell you what to buy if your best friend is getting a mammogram, or just the thing for your diabetic brother. There’s even a sebaceous gland lapel pin for that diligent cosmotologist who got rid of all those zits for ya. Our handy list will help you find just what the doctor ordered for that marvelous nurse, amazing pediatrician, or that special medical student in your life. So take two lapel pins and call us in the morning.
Hospitals in the House
Posted: Thursday, September 24th, 2009
A new season of Grey’s Anatomy starts tonight with a two-hour premiere — we’ll see the hospital staff dealing with George’s death while his mom is stuck with wondering what to do with his organs. Along with the new Grey’s season comes a few other medical shows: Trauma, a new show focused on the insane lives of first-responder paramedics, which premiers Monday on NBC. Also on the medical show tip, we’ve got Mercy, another nurse drama, though no in the same vein as druggy Nurse Jackie, and Jada Pinkett Smith stars in HawthoRNe, another nurse drama on TNT. Here’s something cool — you can add a hero nurse to their website, if you feel the need to shout out your favorite medical professional or take a quiz to find out what kind of nurse you would be. I’m sorta scared to take that one.
Gutsy Gift Guide
Posted: Friday, September 11th, 2009
I finally reconstructed the I Heart Guts Gift Guide for anyone looking to buy gifts for the cardiopulmonologist with a heart of gold, a great hepatologist, or the esthetician who has it all (but does she have a sebaceous gland pin, we ask you?). Also in the wonderful world of guts shopping (sorry to be so crassly commercial, but alas, that is the life of the gut-monger), we now have the ability to shop by gut or gland, so you can look at all, say, the gallbladder stuff we have on offer. Of course you can always type “parathyroid” into the search box with the same results, but it’s a fun new feature I thought you gut-lovers might enjoy.
Urban Transplants
Posted: Wednesday, July 29th, 2009
Well, this is fun — Urban Outfitters has added a few guts to their online collectibles depot. Looks like the marketing department had some fun with the text for the heart: “He’ll really take a beating for ya. Somehow adorable anatomical heart plush with an included little fun-fact-filled tag. Get PUMPED!” and the lung: “Take a deep breath and contemplate the cuteness of this plush set of lungs,” and the liver, too: “Intoxicating little liver likes to keep it clean.” (Wow, the liver is sold out! What’d they do, bundle it with a free bottle of Jack Daniels?) If you already own one of these plush guts and care to write a review (if you happen have to have an UO account), I’ll be your best friend. Also awesome — it seems they also bought stuff from two other California plush scenesters — Lauren of Sweet Meats and Kerry and Darth of Evil Ice Cream. Woo hoo!
