Hey guys, Brandi Bolden here. I have a super exciting question to ask y’all. As you may have guessed from the title, that question is about Ilona Andrews merch. Yes, I know, I’m happy dancing too.
But before I can make your dreams of Ilona Andrews merch come true, I’m gonna need some help from y’all. This is where the question comes,
What exactly do you want to see become available as merch? I need you all to write to my personal email and tell me! Tell me which quotes you want and what kind of items you would like ( ex. hoodie, tee shirt, tote bags.)You can also write it in the comment section. Write your suggestion as a comment, and if you like somebody else’s comment, you can reply to it with +1. I included my email in the post, but just stop be safe it’s brandi.bolden202@gmail.com.
Alright, start suggesting!

…I want the cider. (Yes, yes, I know selling alcohol raises all kinds of complications. And while I know a lot of brewers, I mostly know beer and mead makers. Still… And I am reminded of the half-planned Vermont cider tour. Hm.)
But I also know a really good ceramicist who does a lot of geek themed stuff who could probably do some amazing tankards on this theme if her schedule isn’t too full…
LyannaStark says
+1
Liz V says
+1 on the cider & Cutting Edge shirts
Tink says
Cutting Edge t-shirt and Gertrude Hunt t-shirt.
I’ve been meaning to get a Mercy’s Garage t-shirt from Patricia Briggs, so CE and GH t-shirts would fit in nicely.
You have to go up to at least XX on women’s shirts, though.
Tink says
Wait, we need a shirt for each series.
Kate – Cutting Edge
Innkeeper – Gertrude Hunt
Hidden Legacy – Baylor Detective Agency
Silver Shark universe – ??
Edge series – ??
C says
Artwork that shows the inn keeper inn but with characters from all the different series inside and out.
You know the small, character stuffed type dolls that animes and games like Final Fantasy produce? Those for the main characters from the different series would be awesome. Even if they were mini ones. I keep picturing them on my desk or in my car and it makes me smile.
A tank with hidden legacy circle work with flames that would represent Catalina on the front and Catalina’s ‘wings’ on the back.
A tank with a quote from Kate Daniels. I’m at work and can’t remember the absolute full quote but it goes something along the lines of, “I can tie my shoes and carry my sword all on my own.” or something to that affect. Sorry, little to no sleep last night so on mental fumes
An inn keeper cloak. An inn keeper broom.
C says
Hidden legacy medallion one could where with circle work on the front and something on the back, both representing specific characters
Reetta R says
+1 to innkeeper cloak (this would be prizy but so worth it)

Jennifer Thomson says
+1 on mug for Innkeeper Series
RCelt says
+1 on any large mugs, esp w/ Olasard, Beast, and the creature from hidden legacy with the tentical mane (sorry, in car)
Tink says
Ooh, how about when the mug is cold it’s nice Beast and when the mug is hot it’s kickass toothy Beast?
And for Olasard, he needs the caption of what his name means. Can’t remember what it is offhand, though.
sarafina says
+1
Soul Ripper, iirc.
Diana Blais says
+1 mug!
Tasha says
+1 on the mug or glass
Natasha Johnson says
+1
Sam says
+1 on mug…
michelle tsao says
+1 mug
Leo says
+1 the mug, but somewhere it’s got to have Gertude Hunt, the logo, and “Red Deer, Tx”.
(And be large enough. Is 12-ounces enough?)
Monika says
Book cover posters; I especially like the ones for Kate Daniels 6 and onwards and of course Hugh
Whitney says
+1 on the book cover posters. Small ones on nice paper or bookplates!
Reetta R says
+1 to book cover posters and book cover notebooks
Verity says
+1
Irrstern says
French covers as poster 🙂
C says
+1 even smaller prints would be nice
Ali says
+cover posters/artwork posters. I would hang the shit out of those.
Gundega says
+1 but only for innkeeper and if KD then the french covers 😉
carolyn says
Tee shirt with favorite one liners.
nickole195 says
+1 oh yeah I would be all over that, or pj night shirts. And for price point I think Tote bags are the best idea too….
Patricia Schlorke says
+1 “Here kitty, kitty” comes to mind. ?
Reetta R says
+1 to “Here kitty, kitty” anything

Clara says
+1
Tylikcat says
Okay, I am not a t-shirt person, generally, but that one I might buy.
Cat Wyatt says
+1
Natasha Johnson says
+1 for all the series!
Patricia Schlorke says
Another one liner I just thought of “I do so hate to be bored” – Linus Duncan.
Saira says
+1 though I feel +1000000 about that quote on a t-shirt but Brandi said just to put +1 and I’m trying to follow the directions 😉
Gundega says
+1 one liners are the best 😀
Karren says
T-shirt or tote: “If sky could dream it would dream of dragons” from Steel’s Edge
Reetta R says
+100 to this. This is a beautiful quote. I would love this on the back of a hoodie and as a t-shirt.
Monika says
+1
This quote basically on anything, but hoodie would be great!
Gloria says
I love this quote and I’d buy it on any clothing (PJ’s would suit) or a mug.
Jenn says
+1
Geri says
+ 1
Basically this quote on everything: t-shirt, mugs, pillowcase, etc.
Amy says
+1 this quote on a pillowcase would be perfect!
Jest says
+1
Cat Wyatt says
+1
Irrstern says
+1
Skye says
+1
Liz V says
+100 on shirt. I actually went looking for a shirt with this phrase about 2 years ago-sadly didn’t find one.
Gundega says
+1 for that is one of the most beauitful quotes and I’d love it on anything
DianaInCa says
I would love large coffee mugs. Could make one as an souvenir from the innkeeper, “Top Ten Inn in the Universe” see reviews in the Innkeeper Directory. One could advertise Cutting Edge. One could advertise Baylor Investigative Agency.
Monique says
+1 for large coffee mugs! I would love art from all of Ilona’s books on it, with favorite quotes!!
Melissa says
+1 for coffee mugs with art and/or quote. I’ve got my Harry Potter mug, my Doctor Who mug, my… well I like mugs lol.
Dianne says
+1
Hazel Fitzgibbon says
+1 for a decent sized mug !
Gloria says
Love this idea also and I’d buy one of each. Maybe travel mugs or water bottles, too?
Jest says
+1
Tina in NJ says
+1 for coffee mug, but it would have to have a vampire quote on it. Not sure which.
DianaInCa says
How about “Some people just can’t handle their coffee”
?
kommiesmom says
OOOH! +many!
I don’t even drink coffee – tea, yes, but not coffee. I would buy at least two of them – one to keep and one to gift.
rebecca says
+1 mugs.
Dori Miller says
I would also love Cutting Edge and Baylor Investigative Agency shirts as well. I’m super partial to tank tops :). Or travel mugs.
Berry says
+1 as long as they are large! (My favorite holds a 3 cup pot – 20 oz it says on the bottom)
Sarah says
Cutting Edge mug!
Whitney says
A letter opener would be cool, a sword for Kate and a broom for Dina and maybe a gun for Nevada.
Speaking of Nevada… a replica of her diamond necklace (but please don’t charge $20+ million dollars of it ?). And maybe her wedding ring.
Oh and if you put it in a blind bag I’ll buy it. No joke… like squishys! I love them!!! Ones of the shifters in Kate Daniels and the Bear, the kitty and the weird cat thingy from the Hidden Legacy series and Beast and the Chef from the Innkeeper Chronicles.
Reetta R says
+1 Love the letter opener idea. Orro and Zeus (weird cat thing from HL) plushies would be so adorable.
Carla says
Omg, a plushie Orro would be fabulous! With a chef knife in his hand and maybe his Cleaver rating badge on his chest??
Skye says
+1
Tasha says
+1 for Orro and Curran plushie
Monika says
I like shiny baubles, too, so I am all on board with a Tear of the Aegean replica and maybe the wedding band Hugh gets for Elara (I really like the description of it). Should be affordable, but at the same time not too tacky looking, so maybe silver with semi-precious gemstones (topaz, tourmaline, zirkon, apatite or something like that)…
sarafina says
+1
Love those stones!! Earrings!
Gundega says
+ 1 for Tear of the Aegean and Elara’s wedding band
Jillian says
+1 on the shiny yet understated jewelry in sterling silver!
Kim Adams says
+1 on the letteropeners.
Clara says
+1
Whitney says
Forgot some quotes!!
Clean Sweap:
Arland to Sean
“I suggest you give up now. According to my research, in a vampire-werewolf love triangle, the vampire always gets the girl.”
Magic Bleeds:
Kate Daniels to the Council
“If you’ve come to remove me, come in force, because if you try to separate me from him, I will kill everyone one of you. My hand won’t shake. My aim won’t falter. My face will be the last thing you’ll see before you die.”
Wildfire:
Nevada
“ I had been hugged by a super intelligent, pacifist bear. I could do this. I could do anything.”
Or
Linus to Nevada
“Besides, things around you have a way of turning interesting. I do hate to be bored.”
Or ‘unknown Ceaser’ to Victoria
“ You like to do things that make life interesting. We both do so hate to be bored.”
C says
+ on the letter openers. That would be awesome.
Bernie says
Id like a Quillonian and a Lees. Design or plushie :).
How about your book covers available as posters?
RCelt says
+1 with sunflower apron for Orro and jeweled for Lees
Joann Grey says
t-shirts with snappy one-liners. Easy to mail anywhere and unbreakable.
Arianna says
+1!!
The ones from Kate are the best!
Jenn says
+1
kelticat says
Plushies wearing quote tees, like Curran referenced in above picture, but for other characters(i.e. Dali, Jim, Mahon, George, Doolittle). Or if that is too pricy mini-tees for people to dress their own plushies.
Reetta R says
Rogan’s army id tag. Stationery with House Baylor, House Rogan and Gertrude Hunt Inn logo/House symbol. Wax seals would be awesome too. Official versions of Rogan’s and Nevada’s wedding invitations.
Monika says
+1
Rogan’s army id tags (yeah!)
Kim Adams says
+1 on the waxseals.
Andrea D Smith says
+1 I’d like some stationary. House Baylor, House Rogan with some magic circle or some cutting edge stationary. Let’s face it, every time I need paper or jot down a note… It’s gone. I’m not opposed to bright br Colour so I can find my favorite paper.
Vanessa says
+1 to stationery for every series. Notepads, notebooks, pens, pencils, folders… I’ll buy it all!
Joanna says
I would like to have a kitchen apron with Orro in the kitchen
Amanda G says
+1
Anna L says
+1 especially if it had his egg quote like Best chefs make a simple egg or something
Ismaha says
+1
Verity says
+1
Alex says
+1 Orro Apron. And maybe Orro’s cookbook? 😀
JO says
+1 to Orro apron with sunflowers. Maybe one of his quotes? Something out of: “Like a primitive savage who sets out to tame the wilderness armed with nothing but a knife and his indomitable will, I will persevere. I will wrestle victory from the greedy jaws of defeat. I shall rise like a bird of prey upon the current of the wind, my talons raised for the kill, and I shall strike true.”
Roxann L Hockaday says
+1
FH says
The quote is great. Thank you for sharing!
I’m more likely to wear a T-shirt than an apron … but not ruling it out …
Could it be red?
Cat says
Curran plush
Baby Conlan plush
Jenn says
+1
Skye says
+1, but Curran plushie needs to be gray (and why was he gray in all the books but turned black as a god and stayed black thereafter?) and Conlan plushie needs to be black.
Dianne says
Definitely shirts or big mugs. Sayings, or characters, or characters with sayings.
Bradley says
1. Kate Daniels stationary with Julie’s quote from the wedding cards slogan she suggested “Gore, Swords and Severed Heads!” I believe that is the wording Julie used in Book 8, when Kate hated the wedding invitations that Roman created.
2. Ilona and Gordon Keyrings figures of those awesome anime figures they use on the blog. I especially like the Ilona with horns.
Jenn says
-+1
randy says
+1 on the keyrings
maybe a keyring that says Book Devouring Horde or their icons with BDH or Authorlord .
Natasha Johnson says
+1 on book devouring horde
berryblu says
+1
Milissa Hartzenberg says
+1
NellL says
+1 on the Keyrings
Raina says
T shirts! With quotes or “ the book devouring horde” on them. Stuff for all her series!
Good quality T-shirts with the soft stretchy material. Please have plus sizes available! Please!
randy says
Raina,
You beat me with the Book Devouring Horde option.
Good job.
Jaime says
Oohhhh BDH! +1!
Irishmadchen says
+1 BDH shirts and totes
Clara says
+1
Patricia Schlorke says
+1 How about a book with a bite out of it for a picture? That way people won’t read the shirt without the picture and look at all of us funny. 🙂
Irrstern says
Love this!
Tina in NJ says
+1
Pat Sciarini says
+1
Loganbacon says
Yes, please be sure that t-shirts come in lots of plus sizes! I’ll pay extra!
Gundega says
+ BDH is a must!
Jaime says
Baylor, Cutting Edge, The Golden Legion, Iron Dogs logo on buttons, bookmarks, stationary.
Bookmarks with quotes, “Put your badass faces on and follow me” or “My own personal psycho.” A bookmark that resembles an innkeeper’s broom?
Maybe bandannas with stylized circlework.
I, personally, would adore a shirt that says “We are besieged by murderous poultry,” but I am uncertain that would have traction.
Patricia Schlorke says
For those of us living in the U.S., I can see the “We are besieged by murderous poultry” t-shirt worn on Thanksgiving. 😀
Natasha Johnson says
+1 lol on the poultry
kariell says
+1 on the group/business logos, but I would be more likely to buy them on a fitted tee (LS or SS). I also love the suggested quotes on this post: poultry, badasses, and my own personal psycho. As for any other products, reusable shopping bags/totes would work in addition to tees.
Roxann L Hockaday says
+1
sarafina says
+1
I would buy it.
Amanda Benard says
A baseball tee and a hoody with “sweat is just weakness leaving your body” please!
Reetta R says
T-shirts: “Proud member of the Book Devouring Horde” t-shirt (or just “Book Devouring Horde”), Today!, “Use Your Words”, “Ripper cushions”, “Why me?”
Fart gun
Anna L says
Or Kate’s quote from when she was fighting all the challengers. My hand will not shake and my knife will be the last you see” I’m currently on a re-reading binge and everything blends together.
Cynthia says
+1
Nancy says
This may be crazy, but what about bookmarks? For all the stories if possible.
Verity says
+1
Marsha says
+1
Vanessa says
+1. But laminated or some sort of material that will hold up to wear.
sarafina says
+1
Amanda Benard says
Baseball tee with House Baylor insignia.
Natasha Johnson says
+1
Laura Settle says
Anything printed with some cool circle work. Shirts, books, bags etc that are made to look like actual company stuff for Gertrude Hunt, Cutting Edge or Baylor Investigations. Its so much fun to wear fan stuff that regular people would overlook. Only another fan would get it.
Irrstern says
+1
Tina in NJ says
+1
Dori Miller says
+1
Gundega says
+1 oh yeah, it’s always nice when you see someone have smt from certain fandom and know that person is one of us XD
Kathy says
Comfy pants. Any series, any design. I would probably buy all of them.
Shannon says
My favorite merch has always been t-shirts that only other fans will get. I have a raglan tee of Mercy’s Garage, a v-neck with the molnija marks etc…I like the idea of Cutting Edge, Baylor Investigations, Order of the Knights of Merciful Aid, Iron Dogs etc. logo t-shirts
kariell says
+1
kariell says
You could also have a shirt advertising the Baha-char market.
Koricyn says
+1
Regina says
+1
Carolyn says
Shirt with Medrano Reclamations
Wasn’t there a quote about fighting someone who is menacing the city so that Kate can get a little “me time”?
Nadia says
‘That pain is just a weakness leaving your body’ quote on a work out shirt!
Gwen says
Whatever you decide on please make it available in Canada as well . T-shirt seem to be the most universal merch .
Brooke Hendricks says
The line from Innkeeper that’s something like ‘yes, yes, the princess you came to rescue took her sword and went off to kill the dragon. So sorry.’ (Can’t remember the exact phrase, but it was brilliant.) T-shirt or Hoodie. Please offer plus sizes!
Kristen says
+ 1000 for plus sizes!
Kris says
+1 love that quote!
Nickole195 says
oh +1000000 on the plus sizes, not just mens xxxlarge but actual womens plus sizes
Cathy says
Yes! A tee shirt, large mug, or a tote bag with this quote would be awesome!
Also these three items with the classic Here Kitty, kitty, kitty or with the BDH or any of the great quotes already mentioned above would also be god.
I would also like a plushie lion wearing the Here kitty tee shirt like you have pictured above. I missed out on getting one a few years ago.
Vanessa says
+1 for plus sizes. Real plus sizes, not a size 10 equals a 1X type of plus size.
FH says
Wow, yes! Love that dragon quote …
On another note, I wanted to note Cuddles, but not sure how to work her into merch.
Also remember Marigold. Kate had good quotes about her fondness for, and appreciation of, her loyal and sensible …
mounts? (horses, donkeys, giant-mutant-Paint-mule ??)
sarafina says
+1
Gundega says
+1 oooooooooh definitely this one! On a t-shirt or hoodie or smt
Kristen says
I’d love to have the Pack sweats available (not as sets but top and bottom separate) and/or Order workout clothes (like shirts with “property of The Order of Merciful Aid”). Cutting Edge staff shirts would be cool too.
Also Roman merch! Dude needs more love. A black t shirt with a Roman quote or two would be awesome.
Meghan says
BRING THE COWS!!
T-shirt please. Amazon Merch premium Tees fit small but are great. Readers just need to ignore the male/female labeling and buy according to chest size.
gaill kreis says
Yes to anything, love tee shirts with quotes on them from any of the books, or Cuttting Edge or Gertrude Hunt Inn.
or large mugs with Arcane circles Is that how you spell it.
or maybe hoodies with logo or quotes. And maybe something with Honey muffins, or Aunt B Bouda crew, still miss Aunt B.
Basically,I am so excited I can’t think .
And I saw that Diamond Sapphire on sale at Amazon. !!!!!!!
Debbie says
Canvas tote bag with the Baha-char image
Lisa says
On beast: “Hey, Baby”
Amanda says
A note book with a hiru would be neat +1 to the plushies of all kinds +1 for the quote shirts or hoodies maybe a charm bracelet not sure what charms it could have and maybe something that says I’m a part of the BDH
kariell says
What about a series of plushies for the monsters/mythologies in Kate’s world?
Kim Adams says
I like coasters and bags, but not a smal bag. One I can take to do grocery shopping. (When I was in the US 3 years ago, I bought one of vans, for a good cause I was told, and I still use it.)
Katie Pierce says
For Innkeeper, something that says “I stayed at Gertrude Hunt, and all I got was this xxxxx” (substitute in tee shirt, bag, etc for the xxxxx).
For Kate, Cutting Edge Investigation swag (tees, bags, coozies, etc)
maybe with a silhouette of the “here kitty kitty” moment?
Marsha says
Would love t-shirts and/or sweatshirts with quotes from Roman (maybe with a graphic of his staff getting ready to bite). Also any shirt with “advertising ” for the different companies/groups from the different books.
Amanda says
Also just thought of it toques or tucker hats with either quotes or I survived unicorn lane ?
Valerie says
I’d buy a hoodie with that picture of Arland on the back… I’d even wear it to the RARE event in Paris
Elena Kleanthous says
+1 on a Cutting Edge shirt with a quote from Kate ?
Christy says
I love a good spiral bound notebook with a really firm cover. there are great design ideas here already so im re-purposing some of the suggestions from tshirt/ bag ideas:
-Sketch of Gertrude Hunt
-Circle work imagery from HL
-Pack insignia, Guild insignia, Cutting Edge Investigations, Iron Dogs
-Here Kitty Kitty
-Book Devouring Horde
Lynda MS says
+1 Mugs, Notebooks, Greeting cards with quotes signed by the BDH:
“Amateurs!”
“…so just the birds then?”
“Ripper Cushions”
“We’re besieged by murderous poultry.”
Kelly M. says
Oh, man. Oh, man, oh, man. My brain is jelly right now. But I would really like a cookbook “written by” Orro – the best chicken in the world, etc, although I have a feeling it would be a difficult thing to come up with recipes matching the amazing descriptions in the book!
Also “Hey, Asskicker” on something. 😉
A work-out tank top or water bottle with: “No pain, no gain! That pain is just weakness leaving your body! Come on! Push! Push! Make that weight your bitch!”
BAHAHAHAAAA!!!!
kariell says
+1 I love the idea of a cookbook inspired by the Ilona Andrews worlds!
Gundega says
+1 a tank top with No pain quote is a must! I would always wear it when exercising 😀
Jen Puttock says
A calendar with the cover art would be amazing! And key rings and/or pin badges as many different designs as possible! Anything that won’t attract huge amounts of overseas shipping costs ??♀️
Arianna says
+1!
Ooohhh the calendar is a GREAT idea too!
Claire says
Hoodie’s and T-shirts.
Cutting Edge Investigations small logo on front above left breast. Back has “Staff”
Order of Knights of Merciful Aid on front above left breast. On back- “Knight” , on the sleeve, running the length of the sleeve, the words, “Diviner”, or “Protector” or “Master of Arms” or “Striker” or “Abettor” or “Archivist”.
-Baylor Investigative Services on front above left breast. On back “Staff”
-B’s Best Cider on Front above left breast. On the back a Bouda holding a bottle.
Use Gildan hoodies and t-shirts, they are the best in fit and color

Viktoria says

But a good quality fake, like Swarovski quality
Deborah says
+1
Carla says
+1
if it is too expensive to make in advance, then maybe you could only produce them once they have been ordered. I suspect the BDH would find no fault with longer waiting times/shipping to have a better quality product 🙂
Sue says

FH says
+ 1. May I suggest a steel or platinum or silver coloured setting?

As Catalina’s series appears to be going down the gemstone in the title route, you could do a different piece per book. For example, a ring in the form of a tiara with a synthetic “paraiba” color beryl. There is an excellent Russian manufacturer of synthetics based in Bangkok, btw.

Hmmm, though, maybe not “Ripper cushions!”
Folks might think I’m referring to myself as having cushions … well-blessed, but not quite cushions! 😉
BTW, I have a sign on my desk:
“Be Rogan.”

I agree about the overseas postage cost, that is likely to limit what we can buy. I would like a member of the BDH tee shirt. Book cover posters, or tee shirts or even mouse mats! Bookmarks with quotes. Our most quoted line at home is now ‘pictures or it didn’t happen. ( I can’t remember the exact quote from hidden legacy series.)
Tote bags, and of course here kitty kitty kitty on any merchandise. I would love a mug but we are overseas. There are so many things that can be sold, it is choosing the ones that will sell.

Tote: “there will be ripper cushions” or something to that effect.

mouse pads would be great, too – pretty much anything from any of the books, or book covers

Yass!! mouse pads with pics of each crew. For Innkeeper, Dina, Sean, Caldenia, Beast, Orro, Maude, Arland, Cookie…thinking Star Wars type movie poster style. And one for Hidden Legacy and Kate!

These are great and can be printed in different sizes you only need to great this layout or the wordcloud or whatever once.

Stuffed animals of the shifters would be cute. Mostly, I’d love T-shirts, hoodies, pjs, etc with logos for things like Cutting Edge, the PAD, the Mercenary Guild, etc. I wish I could think of more, but it’s been a while and I need a reread.

Bookmarks, aprons, tshirts and Ripper cushions is a must. what about transfers that can go on mugs and could be changed as one got used up – no issues on cost to post and transfers mean you can have many, many mugs!!!
oh and what about iron on transfers so you get your own tshirt or hoody and cut out postage cost issues. OR badges that can be sewn on so could create totes or add to jeans or hats!

With a world-wide audience, decals and transfers make a lot of sense. It would cut both the cost of shipping and storage.

I’ve seen tote bags come up a bunch, so I’m wondering if Chico Bags (or something similar) would be a possibility. I’m a fan – because I’ll actually use them, all the time, unlike most tote bags which will join my stack of tote bags. (Hey, I can’t stuff four of them into my shoulder bag, or clip them onto a purse strap.)
I’m a fan of the more subtle things – I’d like Biohazard insignia, or circle work, or whatever 🙂

Preferably in old language. There could be Barnabas triyng put out the fire on the bridge. And some crosse siluets in background.
Hmmm. Do you think it is tooo much?
Syl says
Totes and collapsible grocery bags
Magnets
Decals
Stickers
I use Helmers (metal drawers from IKEA) for storage and love to decorate them.
I would pay a lot of money for an Innkeeper project bag for my stitching.
I would love an abstract image of an inn keeper in a cloak with a broom as a magnet or sticker. Or just the broom in active mode, with the blue.
Something with Andrea and Raphael

Kyla says
I’ve seen a couple suggestions for t-shirts with logos for Cutting Edge, PAD, etc and had a sudden image of the BDH as Harry Potter fans divided into factions. So +1 to whoever suggested badges or shirts with logos of each of the Atlanta factions and Cutting Edge. I’d wear a shirt with Aunt B’s cider logo too. I also really like the Hidden Legacy circle work suggestions. There are so many quotable lines in all the series… I’m loving so many of the suggestions, but totes and badges are my favorites – useful and let you decide how/where it goes.
Amy says
I can’t remember the exact quote, but the one where Kate kicks the door open, kills the wolf alpha, and was all, “If you come for us, you better make sure you kill us. My hand won’t shake, my sword won’t falter…”
Favorite scene in a book. It was the moment Kate became IT for me. Just not sure how to incorporate it with merch. Maybe on a black tee? With a pic of a knife through a table? Or something with “the ultimate ride or die”?

“My hand won’t shake. My sword won’t falter.”

Innkeeper themed bathrobes

It’s hard because you have so many good stories, so many fabulous quotes, but one I didn’t see is anything about Kate and Curran’s wedding day.

Maybe some enamel pins, which are in right now (so says my 24-year old son). Images of Gertrude Hunt, a broom, a sword, a lion, an arcane circle….there are a lot of companies that produce the pins wholesale.

I love all the ideas so far. I’d like to recommend decals instead of bumper stickers though. 1. If you change vehicles it can go with you and 2. My husband paints cars and they are sacrilege to his people so I’m not aloud to have one. Thanks!
Melody says
+11111111 GREAT IDEA!!!
Laura says
How about merch with pictures of the vamps from KD in sunblock with “Taste the undead rainbow”. Love that one.
Also, maybe fridge magnets or bumper stickers (which I just put on my fridge with magnets anyhow). But the magnets more like those 3×3 inch ones that are plastic coated (like the ones that you see that have 1950’s quotes & pics). They would be easy and cheaker for the UK BDH.

“There will be ripper cushions” with a picture of Helen, Beast, and the cat peering out from under the table cloth. I know it’s mixing timelines but I laugh every time I think of that trio.
Kathryn Townsend says
I would like a black cushion that says “ripper” on it in white letters. I don’t know if that’s been suggested because there are like 400+ suggestions already, but that’s what I want.
Of course, I also wanted to name our dog “Peeve” but my husband wouldn’t let me because he didn’t want to have a pet peeve.
Well, I think I’m funny.
Manymes says
I love that!
I could go for a pet peeve!
Pika says
I dunno if it has already been suggested but I don’t have enough time right now to look through all the comments (homework to be done ahah) and I’m scared of forgetting if I wait for later. Sorry in advance if I just repeat someone’s else ideas.
For the Hidden Legacy series, I’d love something that can be use in a business-like environment/workplace. My first thought was a diary, or the type of notebooks that can be used to write down all sorts of information (like contacts, notes, with a calendars, etc…) so that we could use it at work on a daily basis.
My second thought was a clipboard.
I haven’t thought about the design yet but I’m pretty sure Nevada’s rules (the three ones, especially being able to look at yourself in front of a mirror at the end of the day ?) would fit somewhere =)
FH says
“Once bought, we stay bought.”
Yes, that one has come to mind a few times. Steered me through some situations.
3 good rules. Especially that one.
Gundega says

A bib with a baby lion, singing the sad song of his people I loved that comment
Nina says
I NEED the lion on your pic: “Here, kitty, kitty”
And
A black cushion with “there will be ripper cushions”. Perhaps some “fangs” hanging/standing out on two sides.
Christine says
I TOTALLY need something/anything with Ripper Cushions!!
Logo Tee or hoodie with Kate’s business Cutting Edge logo.
Pretty much all snark from Kate, Curran, Andrea, Maude.
Action figures of the Horde, stuffed animal of the lees (with apron of course), and Orro (squeeze him and his quills stick out?!).
Vanessa says
How about ornaments? Flat ones with various designs or quotes so the shipping won’t be too much for international fans. Or one of those flat pack type of ornaments that you can unfold and pop-up.
I’d also be interested in skins for technology (phones, laptops, tablets, e-readers).
Oh, travel mugs or water bottles. I think the company Tervis does custom business orders.
Or (and this would probably take a couple of years) a world of Ilona Andrews desk calendar. One of those day to day ones. That way we could have quotes and artwork from each series. Or a blank planner, where you can fill in the day, month, year, and there’s artwork or a book quote on every page.
Last one: Garden flags. Or tapestries. Not the giant ones, but the ones that are about 20” x 27”.

I love,all the ideas and would shop it all, especially calendars dull of snark. Just wanted to share we have a Very small scrub brush in our kitchen named ripper cushions. My grands love it! It’s just their size and is used to both help Papa Bear clean stuff and to also serve out ripper cushions if necessary. (Grin)

I’d potentially buy womens fitted t-shirts, shot glasses, magnets, coasters or funko pops and cuddly toys.
I like quotes or references you have to know the books to get eg.
‘Not my circus, not my undead monkeys’ or ‘Necro in the hole’
Eahrratim, the Rose of Tigris – picture of a rose.
Sharrim – maybe underlined with a sword or with a picture of a broken tower, but to be honest, just the word would be best.
Iron Dogs: Building Moats Since The Shift – maybe a picture of a castle
‘Amehe’ – maybe with a picture of a wolf (I like the idea of a word of power on a t-shirt or set of shot glasses with Amehe, Hessad and Osanda and another one Kate likes for example).
Yellow lettering on a black background saying ‘EVIL AND CONFLICTED ABOUT IT’ with an arrow pointing upwards.
Tiffany Vakilian says

+1 Power Words and a matching photo for nicer shirts, mugs, travel mugs (e.g. Contigo brand style), tote bags, etc.
Laurie says
These are great suggestions! I like the not my circus shirt idea..though I would prefer unisex multi-blend (otherwise they tend to be too tight around the neck) I also like the idea of doing a Cutting Edge shirt.
