Cycling is, well, let’s face it, one of the geekiest “sports” out there. Either you’re pedaling around because you don’t have a car, or because you actually want to be a “cyclist” in which case you are wearing really tight, shiny shorts. More importantly than all that, cyclists have mega-pride. And here is the perfect button to show yours off. Spaceoddities posted this massive 3″ Bicycle Love Button on her etsy page. Perfect blend of geek, girly & cyclist pride.
John at Superpunch featured these amazing Geeky Easter Eggs, and I thought I would share it today so anyone who is like me, and waits until the night before Easter to decorate eggs can try some of these amazing ideas!
Above is the Bender egg, the binary egg and the soon-to-be ever-so-popular Yoda egg. On Superpunch you will also find some other really amazing Easter eggs including World Of Warcraft, Kiss and Aqua Teen Hungerforce inspired eggs, as well as Domokun and some cool “egg scenes”. This is one way to totally geek-a-fy your Easter celebration and show off how artistic you are (or, as it may turn out–aren’t).
I know this isn’t exactly a “craft” but this Egg Cuber from The Kitchen Store is just way too cool not to tell you about. Seriously, aside from the word “MONK!!” popping into my head as soon as I saw it, I also had visions of food-colored cubed eggs becoming Tetris pieces on a large platter for the Easter brunch I am planning, or a big cubed-egg Rubik’s Cube. Honestly, OCD or not, this is the most awesome invention you could own for $2.99 plus shipping.
I’d love to write more but I need to put my order in.
There’s nothing that amuses me more than tiny kids in costumes, so I’m loving these superhero capes on Craftster – capes by NorahKate, kids by SpencerTwins2007.
This is probably the coolest thing I’ve seen in awhile. Craftster user RoaneFaery made this absolutely amazing Cthulhu costume to wear to Emerald City Comicon in Seattle. Even the feet are cool! I can’t wait to see what else she comes up with.
P.S. I think I’ve been spelling Cthulhu wrong for quite some time. Sigh.
Big thanks to everyone who submitted a geek craft! Through the very scientific process of my husband and I picking the entries we liked best, here are the winners:
ICandee made this scene from Mario Brothers in polymer clay.
Tae submitted this absolutely amazing Millennium Falcon cake on Ace of Cakes. How could anyone stand to cut this one up?
This very cute crocheted Pi symbol was made by Alicia Kachmar and submitted by Taine HR.
JasonT was inspired by a project on the Star Wars Kids Craft blog and made his own Bantha plushie.
LyricalDevil submitted this Zelda Triforce drink, recipe by The Domestic Scientist. I think this is the first beverage we’ve had on Geek Crafts.
