Comments rssI’m loving this new Mistle-TIE Fighter holiday craft project from Bonnie Burton — awesome!
And this embroidered Darth Vader ornament from blackrose1151 on Etsy is one of my favorite things ever. I ordered two of them last year — one for me, and one for my nephew who loves Star Wars as much as I do — and mine is on my tree right now! Maybe I’ll get each of us another one of her other Star Wars ornaments this year to keep up our tradition…
Comments rssStar Wars blogger and book author extraordinaire Bonnie Burton recently had a chance to try out the new inflatable Jabba the Hutt costume when it arrived in the Star Wars Shop! She wrote about her field trip around the LucasFilm campus and the closest Starbucks, and even tried out some dance moves inside the giant suit (there’s a video to prove it!).

Bonnie says:
The cool thing about this costume is that it literally keeps you cool while you wear it thanks to an internal, battery-operated fan inside that inflates it so you actually look like the Hutt himself. The head of Jabba isn’t attached to the body of the costume, which makes it a fun thing to wear just on its own.
You can find the costume here, read about her adventures here, and see tons more photos here. Don’t miss Bonnie’s fantastic Star Wars Kids Crafts archive, either — she offers tons of project tutorials to try, including this super cute Yoda doll. After seeing her demo at Maker Faire, my nephew and I made one together — one of my favorite craft projects ever!
