Geek Crafts at Maker Faire!

If you are in the Bay Area (or can get there this weekend), don’t miss the magnificent Maker Faire! There is way too much going on to try to list here, but check out their list of makers and weekend schedule for tons of details. Here are a couple of things I’m most excited about…

Friend of geekcrafts Bonnie Burton is teaching a rad craft demo: make a paper-bag puppet of Admiral Akbar from her new Star Wars Craft Book. I went to her Yoda doll demo at Maker Faire a couple of years ago and it was amazing!

Meanwhile, Particle Zoo will have her excellent subatomic particle plushies for sale in the Bazaar Bizarre section. Her motto: It has to be scientifically accurate, and it has to be cute. (Thanks Rachel!)

Star Wars Wolowitz Belt

I love Big Bang Theory. Anything that brings uber-geekiness into living rooms across America is good in my book, and the characters are awesome. If you’re like me, your eyes always catch Wolowitz’s crazy belt buckles, Rachel at In The Happily Ever After was so inspired by Wolowitz’s wardrobe that she made this Star Wars Wolowitz Belt.

sneak peek at the new Star Wars Crafts Book!

Luckily, this is no April Fool’s joke – Bonnie Burton just posted a super-tempting look at the cover of her brand-new Star Wars Crafts Book, coming later this year! From Chewbacca Velvet Paintings to a Bounty Hunter Guitar Strap, this collection looks amazing.

Stay tuned for an interview with Bonnie closer to publication!

Princess Leia Burp Cloth

I ran across this Princess Leia Burp Cloth while searching for some geeky diaper covers. Queen DeLuxe made this awesome Star Wars burp cloth from a prefold cloth diaper, perfect for soaking up those big ones, because even geeky babies spit up. You can find this, and the matching onesie at her etsy shop.
