Beetlejuice Sand Worm Mittens

My beau pointed out these Beetlejuice inspired mittens to me last night, and I just can’t get over them. Damn Your Eyes posted these Beetlejuice Sand Worm Mittens on craftster. She used another mitten pattern to start and then added these awesome Beetlejuice touches! Perfect if you want to keep your hands warm and costumed for Halloween.

Rubik’s Cube Costume

Cardboard + duct tape + colorful paint= perhaps the coolest geeky costume ever. Designerd posted this baby at instructables, and it’s just amazing. The added detail of making each square on this Rubik’s Cube Costume appear “twistable” makes this a cardboard box costume that takes a little more than some spray paint and accrodian tubes for arms, but would be so worth the trouble.

Time Machine

Honestly, there is no craft I have wanted to do at home more than this Time Machine posted by gmjhowe on Instructables. That is saying a lot since I love almost everything I come across on that site, but gmjhowe really put thought, time and coolness into this hand held “Vortex Distortion Space and Time Dilating Device”. Made from various materials including cardboard and “a lot of scrap and junk” he created the perfect, timeless, hand held Time Machine. Now, it’s not as roomy as the Tardis or as flashy as Bill & Ted‘s phonebooth, but it’ll get you where you need to go and you’ll look good when you get there.
