Death Star Bath Bomb
Check out this geeky bath bomb, it’s no moon! That’s right, this bath bomb is in the shape of the Death Star by Veelightful on Etsy. You can even get one in Peppermint Mochaccino scented! I’ve heard rumours of people starting their holiday shopping already, keep this fun and nerdy shop in mind!
Operation Crossbones Kickstarter
Check out this Kickstarter campaign. Xander is raising capital to start a business making screen-printed nerdy pirate flags, and he has some great designs!
not quite, entirely unlike tea
From the site:
“Pirates are cool! Aside from being covetous, rum-swigging, no-rules-having bad-asses, you know what makes them so freakin’ awesome? Their flags!
Take the Jolly Roger—one of the most iconic symbols in recent history. It was flown by men and women of fortune to show the world that they would not be ruled—that they were free.
I want to make the same statement. I’m opening a pirate flag screen-printing operation to create personal Jolly Rogers to sell at comic conventions, Renaissance fairs, art shows, and other events.”
He only has 3 days to go and has just about reached his goal! Definitely worth checking out!
Superhero Comic Book Magnets
In nearly all flea markets, you can find a stash of comic books. What to do with them after reading them? You can make magnets! Amanda over on Crafts by Amanda has written a great post that gives you a tutorial on making them!
After you’ve made your plethora of magnets for yourself and friends and gifts, she has a link to learn how to make comic book coasters!
So the next time you’re at a flea market, hunt down those comics, and let the fun begin. Amanda also has 2 craft books, be sure to check them out!

Pokemon Hair Bows
These adorable Pokemon bows were personally drawn and designed by Riri. She then custom printed on fabric. After she has the fabric, she makes these cute bows, fantastic! I love that she created every step of the way, something she truly DIYed.
Want to see more of her creations? Of course you do! She has a tumblr you can check out! Who’s your favourite Pokemon?
