Geek Crafts

In honor of Shayne’s Brain Slug post, here is another great one. Artist Lauren Swingle crafted these awesome Futurama Brain Slug Earrings from polymer clay to feature on TheClayCollection’s etsy page. I love them because they are cute, lime green, and I just saw the brain slug episode yesterday! Perfect for any Futurama fan, and no risk of these little guys actually sucking your brain.

Sometimes simple equals amazing, like this awesome Wario Costume that UpKnitCreek (love the screen name) posted on Craftster. She made it from purple, yellow and black fleece, polymer clay and “lots of love”, her husband even pitched in, making the nose and attaching the mustache to it. Pure geek Halloween gold.

merricat posted this baby dragon cape she sewed over on Instructables. Click through to see the wings, plus step-by-step photos of how she made the eyes with polymer clay.

Crafster user brunette_bombshell made this Princess Leia slave costume to wear to Indy Con and cleverly used polymer clay for all of the metal parts.

MzKitty submitted her awesome Meatwad Cell Phone Charm that she is selling on her etsy page. This Aqua Teen Hunger Force bite sized charm is made from polymer clay and metal findings, and he’s just awesome! Thanks MzKitty!

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.
