Amazing Doctor Who-Themed Crib
I don’t have a child, but if I did, I’d want my baby to have this crib.
According to Doctor Who Crafts, this replica crib of The Doctor’s cot was made for Andred Gallafraigh and submitted by Kathleen Gallafraigh. Hmmmmm, Gallafraigh….Gallifrey…I wonder!
Grumpy Cat Strikes Again
Tardar Sauce, aka Grumpy Cat, aka everyone’s favorite internet meme, is back and inspiring more artists this time.
“…The Grumpy Cat Art Project, a multimedia exhibition and auction event in honor of the Internet celebrity cat put together by more than 30 artists-in-residence at the Lowe Mill Arts & Entertainment center in Huntsville, Alabama. According to one of the event organizers Dustin Timbrook, the exhibition aims to show the world that “art can elevate even the sillest subject,” taking advantage of the cat’s internet appeal to showcase the talent of resident artists at Lowe Mill. All of their artworks, which range from sculptures and paintings to stained glass art and soap carvings, are scheduled to be auctioned off online between May 27th and May 31st, culminating in a one-night exhibition at the art center on May 31st.”
“Ceramic potter and sculptor Calvin Hubbard’s Grumpy Cat is incredibly expressive and lovable. Don’t you just want to hug him?” This artist and art combo picture really cracked me up this morning. I love how Calvin’s got the Grumpy Cat look on his face.

Fandom Cats
Again and again, I saw adorable, little drawings of fandom characters as cats. There were Supernatural cats, Sherlock cats, and Avengers cats. It didn’t take long for all those cats to go to my head. I couldn’t help but try to recreate some of their cute cattiness myself. Castiel Cat and Dr. Horrible Cat are the results.
I drew their plushie patterns myself and made them with fleece and felt. I tried to use fabric glue to attach Cas’s coat. That was a mistake. I ended up sewing most of their pieces together, but I was able to hot glue their eyes, hair, and noses. I’m happy with the results. They’re the cute, cuddly, and (slightly) silly looking representations of all those adorable, Internet kitties I had prancing around in my head.
Plants Vs Zombies Paper Toys
Plants Vs Zombies has been released for the BlackBerry Z10! And I have a BlackBerry Z10! So guess who’s been spending all of her (precious little) free time yelling at zombies?
These Plants vs. Zombies paper toys are probably going to be my next obsession. Paper crafting is super fun! It’s inexpensive, relatively easy to make, and there are oodles of awesome patterns out there…like these cuties from Mayainpaper! There are downloadable patterns for quite a few plants and zombies, but I think Crazy Dave might actually be my favorite.
