Today I want to show you this amazing Tetris Side Table made by Annahowardshaw from Instructables.
The whole table is made from scratch and we are given the complete tutorial so you can create your own piece of retro geek furniture. The Tetris pieces are made from wooden cubes stuck together, sanded and painted. They are then glued on to the table after arranging them carefully.
It hurts me a little inside (or should I say, I get a little smaller, and lose my rings!) to see these two guys side by side. I love them both so much but it just reminds me that there won’t be any new SEGA consoles anytime soon… and that reminds me of the Dreamcast (swoon) … and that reminds me of Shenmue… I digress…
Instructables member SheWhoMustNotBeNamed has the perfect solution to my discontinued-game-console woes, with a fantastic Mario and Sonic quilt tutorial.
I could wrap myself up in it while I play my old Master System games…. doesn’t look the same on a 32″ TV *sniff*……………
So sometimes I like to fantasize about the things that I would put in my house if I actually owned one, and this might be on the top of the list for my son’s room if not the whole house because they are just soooo cool. I mean who doesn’t love arcade buttons? They’re handmade, and I just think you couldn’t get a kick out of these every time you turned your lights on or off. You can find them at Leet Dreams Etsy shop… here.

Check out this crocheted creeper! I love the colours and it’s expression. Don’t you wish you had a creeper to snuggle up with? I bet it would protect you pretty well at night from, well, creepers.
I stumbled on this little video by Marcus and Hannes Knutsson on Youtube and I knew I had to share it. I can’t even fathom how long it must have taken to put this together with all of the animation involved using perler beads. There are a few different similar videos by the same makers floating around Youtube, but I haven’t yet found a dedicated channel for them.
I love finding videos like this one. It absolutely makes my day. If you know of anything similar, let me know in the comments.
In the meantime, take a look at some other Mario Bros stuff on Geekcrafts!
crafters love angry birds… FACT
Craftster user Miss Jols shares with us a tutorial on how to make the bad guy we love to hate (but secretly love to love, and would love to squoosh!) out of green fleece!
Don’t pretend you wouldn’t make 6 of them, pile them up in the corner and throw stuff at them until you’d knocked them all over… no? … just me then …
