I am a collector of hobbies and lately I have gotten back into the Rubik’s Cube.  The Rubik’s Cube was invented in 1974 by a Hungarian sculptor and professor named Erno Rubik.  He was awesome.  He didn’t even realize he had made a puzzle until the first time he scrambled it and tried to get it back together.  It took him like 6 months, now the world record is 5.66 seconds.  My best time is somewhere just shy of 2 minutes, but I am getting better.  Enough about me, you are here for crafts so here we go!

This Rubik’s Cube tissue box by HandyHomeGrown on Etsy is made out of wood, making it far superior to a lot of the other Rubik’s Cube tissue boxes you can find out there because it probably smells pretty rustic.

How about a Rubik’s Cube necklace made with a bottlecap?  You could wear it to your next speed cubing competition and make all the geeky boys swoon!  Afterwards you could check out HaddiesBoutique on Etsy to see a lot of other fun necklaces.

Or how about this Rubik’s Cube necklace that you can actually use?  Made by TheNomiFaerie on Etsy, this thing is amazing.  You can proclaim your love of group theory while demonstrating your elite cubing skills!

Necklaces not your style?  How about a necklace for your car?  These Rubik’s Cube rear view mirror hangers by K8bitHero on Etsy would make the perfect accessory for any puzzle enthusiast.

Now that you are dressed up like a Rubik’s Cube, what about your house?  Yeah, your walls need decorations too.  All your friends talk about your drab boring walls when you aren’t around and now you can adorn them with this awesome Rubik’s Cube cross-stitch.  You can get the pattern over at crossrestitched on Etsy!
