Who isn’t addicted to the Legend of Zelda? It has worked its way into the ranks of Best Video Game Ever list. Link has slashed his way through countless enemies and into the hearts of many of us. While doing a bit of geeky research earlier today, I found an etsy shop that is sure to please any Zelda lover.
Grandma Thunderpants! has an amazing collection of poly clay creations including this Link necklace. Give her etsy shop a look for some incredible creations!
I think I must have babies on the brain. Even if you do have the fastest baby in the world, eventually the little tyke has to go to sleep. When they do, why not cover them up in this fantastic Link crib quilt by Etsian GeekUnique?
Not only do they make awesome geeky crafts of all sorts, but their last name is very close to mine, so you know it’s legit.
Here’s a reader submission/tutorial double header!
Gina from Kiwistitch.com is a cross stitch wizard… and to be fair I really shouldn’t be featuring her Cucco, I should be featuring her Ode to Spot cross stitch, and pattern. Her Chrono Trigger Sprites Cross stitch, and pattern. Or her insanely EPIC Bahamut Vs Alexander cross stitch and pattern, which weighs in at an impressive 30,000 stitches.
But no. I’m featuring the Cucco cross stitch and pattern… because it’s cute.
Hit us up on the submit a geekcraft link if you’ve got a tutorial or a craft you would like to see here!
So I’ve had video games on the brain lately. As such, I knew I wanted to find a super unique video game craft to share with you.
Thanks to the talented Etsian pixl pshr I found it. I have NEVER seen anything like this. They take ordinary felt and turn it into totally awesome art! Each square is hand cut and assembled by them. Crazy fun!
“Next up on the Hyrule Evening News: our special report, When Cuccos Attack!”
Anyone who’s played a Legend of Zelda game knows the perils of picking on these seemingly benign creatures. If Link smacks ’em around one time too many, they’ll swarm him in a flurry of vengeful, feathered fury.
Liyo –a research scientist by day, crafter by night– has captured this dramatic scene in a cute plastic bracelet.
She also offers various kawaii rings and bracelets featuring other Nintendo favorites such as Zelda and Super Mario Bros. over at her Etsy store LiyoLabs.
Nostalgic. Stylish. Practical. These are just some of the words that I would use to describe 8BitMemory‘s portable hard drive made from an NES Legend of Zelda cartridge. 8BitMemory can put an entire terrabyte of extra space (or 500GB or 750GB if you prefer) into pretty much any old cartridge!
Alternatively, if you’re feeling that DIY itch and want to give this a shot on your own, cr0ybot on instructables has a breakdown of how to put together something similar.
