If you are a word-nerd like me, this Scrabble Board Picture Frame is probably lifting your spirits as I type. Kelly Jensen from photojojo submitted this awesome picture frame project to us and I was too busy digging through my garage for an old Scrabble board to post it before now.

This is a really easy, fun project to dress up an old Rubik’s Cube for display, or to really hone your skills as a Rubik’s solver. Gtig posted this Blind Man’s Metal Rubik’s Cube he made with a regular Rubik’s Cube, some epoxy, and a few metal squares he pried off an old chair. There are step-by-step instructions in his post on Instructables.
In addition to looking awesome, it adds a new element to solving Rubik’s Cubes, and Gtig claims that by solving this one blind, it has made it easier for him to solve a normal Rubik’s Cube!
Neil Patrick Harris stole our hearts as the geek-cum-laud child doctor of Doogie Howser, M.D. , but he came back for a doctor show of a different kind with the Doctor Horrible Sing Along blog. Beefranck posted this awesome Dr. Horrible Cross Stitch on craftster (found via whedoncraft). Complete with lyrics from song “Brand New Day” this is one cross stitch sure to grab attention.
What person thinks of their warm, snugly bed and doesn’t think “Cthulu“? No one. I’m sure of it. So here is your friendly neighborhood Bedtime Cthulu complete with his night cap and snugly plushie. Alecto posted this creation on Craftster. She created him using a pattern she found on Cthulu and Cousins, and modifying it a bit.
Craftster user whateverjames cross-stitched up this great “I love you more than Star Wars” sampler for his fiance for Valentine’s Day. Those hearts? They’re light sabers bent into hearts.
I just found this awesome post on Craftster – an alien fetus in a jar, made by mrs.dutt‘s husband. She didn’t post any details about how he made it, though. Care to share, mrs.dutt?
