I recently featured a Blackberry case made by a follower of geek crafts on twitter, Dawn Crawford. Being the good wife that she is, she made her husband, Brian Crawford send us a couple submissions as well, and so we thank her, because this Space Invaders Star Wars Mashup Skateboard he made for the Bordo Bello fundraiser for the arts this year is just awesome. Not only did he take inspiration from the awesome Space Invaders 8-bit look, but he incorporated into a Star Wars theme, and if that wasn’t enough for you, this baby lights up!
Pictures don’t really do this beauty justice, so be sure to check out their husband & wife craft blog Crap I Make to see the video Dawn shot of her hubby’s most excellent creation!
Flickr user pardalote_40 posted this great Space Invaders beadwork necklace, aptly named “pewpew,” in the Geek Crafts photo pool.
I found some great bedding on Craftster recently.
Maddys Mum made her husband this lap-sized Space Invaders quilt for Christmas. The simple yet detailed square per pixel worked out great!
Another Christmas gift, Lovefrozenstars made this rockin’ (oh my, did I really just say “rockin’”?) comforter for her boyfriend with the Rock Band guitar icon. She includes some tips in her post, including how she did the image,
“To get the symbol, I brought a print out of it to a Kinko’s and had them blow it up as large as they could. I cut that image out and traced it onto white fleece that I sewed onto the front.”
Of course, both gifts were very well-received!
Be on the lookout for posts from new Geek Crafter Renee - she’ll be blogging regularly here at Geek Crafts.
We hope everyone has a happy, crafty, geeky new year!
Geek Crafts reader Renee of The Domestic Scientist submitted this amazing Space Invaders cross-stitched guitar strap for her husband. She says she’ll be modding his guitar next! Click through to her blog and Flickr account - she’s got a lot of really cool crafts, geekery and geek crafts. There are even some extremely cool patterns for stuff like a NES controller cross-stitch pattern and an Army of Darkness stencil.
