Check out these amazingly geeky lampshades made by Monika who sells them at her etsy shop PaniKurek. She says:
“The double glass cylinder recalls Art Deco forms in a unique contemporary way. The use of ready-made objects gives an appearance with a Duchamp idea. The lamp is inspired by Maria Sklodowska-Curie, the Polish scientific woman, awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the discovery of polonium and radium.”
A true geek.
Sometimes your mad laboratory needs a homey touch (especially if you spend more time there than you do at home).
You’re in luck! Sasha offers some super science-themed felt creations — including this charming microscope magnet — at her Etsy store What. No Mints?.
She also has other fuzzy creations for the chemistry nerd in your life, from Erlenmeyer Flasks key chains to brooches sporting the dopamine molecule.
Need a gift for your favorite aspiring chemist? Or perhaps you’re just looking for a way to bring some color into your own chem lab? What you need is this set of chemistry labels for your crayons. Queinteresante sells these for sets of eight, sixteen, twenty-four, forty-eight, ninety-six, or one hundred twenty crayons!
Genius for sure. I love these, and little kids are such sponges when they’re young… I’m sure some of this will stick with them for a long time. The wrappers are available through her etsy shop, or for those of you without etsy accounts, she’s made a separate website to sell from!
Lori, at Clever Cake Studios made this incredible Chemist’s Cake for a chemical engineer at Nintendo (way cool!). With white and lemon cake, raspberry filling, fondant and lots of precise details (the topper to the bottle is a separate cake piece and can come out) this cake, well, takes the cake!
Craft blog posted the adorable science-themed embroidery of Craftster user flossbox a couple weeks ago. Flossbox is back again with more embroidery. This one is called “Better Living Through Chemistry.” It’s cute and educational :)
