Mario Mushroom Grill
Or as Craftster Greg.Matta puts it – Grilltendo! He needed to be able to tell the difference between the carnivore grill and the vegan grill. Perfect solution!
Mario Mushroom Stencil Art How-To
Crafter extraordinaire Vickie Howell recently made this Game Boy stencil art piece for her son, who loves to play video games. She used a stencil from Ed Roth’s Stencil 101 Decor collection and freehanded the Mario image over it — she shares a complete tutorial for making your own version.
This isn’t Vickie’s first Mario-inspired craft project — check out her pattern and tutorial for knitting up a pair of Mario Mushroom Wrist Warmers as well!
New Moon + Mario Mushroom Wrist Warmers
Knitter extraordinaire Vickie Howell has designed not one but two awesomely geeky sets of wrist warmers, and both patterns are free online! This week she published the Alice Wrist Warmers pattern over at CRAFT:, inspired by the upcoming New Moon movie… these would be perfect to complete your Twilight-inspired Halloween costume in style!
And her Mario Mushroom Wrist Warmers are a favorite from last year that are just the thing to knit up as the temperature drops. This pattern is available in kids’, women’s or men’s sizes and includes a handy (and cute) charted image for creating your mushroom.
1up Mushroom Lamp
Ok, this isn’t exactly a craft… this is a 1Up Mushroom Lamp sold by the folks at Guruguru. Pretty cool looking and affordable too at only $8.50. They don’t say how big it is though, which is aggravating. I bet it would be easy to make if someone put their mind to it – any video game crafters up for it?
UPDATE: It’s gone from their site now.
Super Mario Ceramic Tea Set
Topgeargorilla is showing off the Super Mario Tea Set he made about 3 years ago in a high school ceramics class. It includes a mushroom teapot, a bomb-omb sugar holder, and a star spoon. He says he’s not happy about the whole thing, but I think it looks great!
