Ebony at SF-Fandom made this detailed Lord of the Rings Quilt. On her site she’s included links to the individual blocks of the quilt, as well, so you can get up close and personal with all the minor details she worked so hard at putting into this project.
Craftster user silverhart just got her first sewing machine, so naturally she first made a pin cushion. And what could be more perfect than a likeness of Pinhead from Hellraiser? [via Craft: Magazine]
If you didn’t think Yoda could be considered cute, you haven’t gone to Dawanda and looked at this adorable Yoda Crochet Doll by deadcraft. Complete with over sized head (for maximum cuteness) and little tiny Yoda suit, this is one Star Wars key chain that has all the best elements: cuteness, geekiness and portability.
I wasn’t going to read the Twilight series. I don’t do scary and I figured books about vampires would be scary. But then I caved and became as obsessed as every other teenage girl. Oh, wait, I’m way past “teenage.” Anyway, the books and the movie – I love them, so I was really excited to see this Twilight Resin Necklace that Craftster user merrydeath21 made for her daughter. You can click through to her post to read about how she made it with resin, printed images and a daily pill sorter.
Anyone else have a Twilight craft?
Who didn’t love the Iron Man movie? Here are ten of the most awesome Iron Man craft projects that you can do for $20 grand or less…most of them a LOT less!
The Popular Mechanics website featured this “home made” Iron Man suitcrafted by Norweigan costume enthusiast, John Kristiansen and a group of his friends that call themselves TMP. They attempted to create this costume before the May release of the Iron Man film, with nothing but promo pictures of the suit and twenty-thousand dollars.
Yes, you read that correctly! Kristiansen and his pals spent TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS on this realistic costume. It came out so close to perfect that Paramount hired Kristiansen to make appearances around Europe to promote the DVD release, and he plans to use it for charity fundraisers and to talk to children about saftey, saying:
you may not listen to your parents, but if Iron Man tells you to wear a bike helmet, you’re going to do it.
So next time you have an extra twenty thousand sitting around, consider building a costume for a major-blockbuster film!
