Mega Mr. T Craft Round-up
Mr. T is awesome. WrestleMania, Rocky III, The A-Team…did you know Mr. T has three kids? How cool must that be to have Mr. T as your dad! I pity the fools who don’t think these Mr. T crafts are totally rad.
Little Mr. T
Etsy seller Kezzaroo sells these super cute Little Mr. T dolls made of felt at three inches tall. Kezzaroo also offers this Mr. T trivia tidbit:
“Mr.T once punched Chuck Norris at the exact moment he roundhouse kicked Mr.T in the chest.”

Hand Banana (From ATHF) Softie
I know all of us geeks love Aqua Teen Hunger Force on Adult Swim. My favorite characters are the Mooninites, Ignignokt and Err. My husband’s favorite is Hand Banana, so when I came across this Hand Banana softie from Etsy seller obeselete, I had to get it for him. He arrived today and he is completely awesome!

13 Crafty Robots
Robots are cool. Do a search on “robot” at etsy.com and you’ll get more than 2,000 results. Flickr serves up another 1,500. Plushies, etched glass, metalworks - anything goes for making robots. Here are a few:
Emmett’s Robot
Bitterbethany was inspired by Jess Hutchinson and Hillary Lang to make this soft robot. The zipper mouth and snap buttons are great details!
Robie Robot
Here’s another robot inspired by Hillary Lang of Wee Wonderfuls. Check out sknittymama’s Flickr for more robots.
Ivy’s Robot
Melisdramatic traced her daughter Ivy’s robot drawing to do this embroidery. What is this robot thinking?
My First Robot
And another from Jess Hutchinson’s “Unusual Toys for You to Knit and Enjoy.” This was Lily Dustbin’s first robot attempt. Naturally, she plans on knitting more. There’s no such thing as too many robots.
Robot Brooches
These cute little robot brooches are made of felt. And they’re a miniature version of Andricongirl’s larger robots.
David the Unappreciated Robot
I really love this ugly tie / vinyl robot combination. Click through to The Rocket Workshop’s Flickr to read the elaborate tale of David the Unappreciated Robot’s work life.
Bride and Groom Robots
My Imaginary Boyfriend made these cute, felt robots as part of a Craft A Day challenge. She plans on attaching plastic bases to these his-and-hers robots so they can be used as wedding cake toppers.
Robot Geek in Love
This sweet robot print is available from CraftieRobot’s Etsy shop. At 8 1/2 x 11 inches, it would make a great addition to the wall of any room.
Angry Robot Pouch
This robot is fun *and* functional :) Unzip his mouth to store your money and other small things. Also, I’m just a sucker for glitter vinyl.
Robot Shot Glass
BreadandBadger is freehand-etching shot glasses with a rotary tool for your drinking needs. No two robots are alike.
Shopping Robot Market Bags
Reusable shopping bags are all the rage right now, as they should be. Go green with these screen-printed robot bags.
Ollie
Guy Robot turns junk into robots. Be sure to check out his entire web site for robot-y goodness. This here is Ollie:
“Ollie is one tough robot, built to handle a heap of abuse. Rocks and worse just bounce off of his head. Ollie’s body armor is bomb-squad certified, he can squat thrust twice his weight. Once, on a dare, he did eleven thousand pull-ups.”
Robot Invasion Instructable
Thanks to MrMunki and instructables, you can make robots too. These ornaments are even solar-powered. Now get to it!
