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.
Do you have the fastest baby alive? Is your baby always hording rings and then throwing them into the air when he or she crashes into spikes? Then this is the bib for you. Throw this thing on your baby and everyone will stop asking if they have super powers from some horrible radioactive truck accident.
AiTenshi on Etsy makes all kinds of wicked baby apparel, from this awesome Sonic bib, to equally awesome bibs of WHATEVER KIND YOU WANT! She doesn’t just make bibs though, so check her out!
If you love Legos, than there is only one place on the web you need to be. Or…rather, two places, as Love Brick by Brick is both an awesome blog full of tutorials on Lego jewelry and impossibly cool projects like the one pictured, but also a kickin’ Etsy shop where you can stock up on artfully made Lego jewelry.
And I promise I am not using “artfully made” generically, browsing Julia Morley‘s work was a surreal feeling, joining up the geeky child inside and the woman who loves cool, even beautiful jewelry, and reminding me they are both the same person.
I have made no secret of my love of video games, but did you know that I am also quite a classy fellow. Like any gentleman with refined tastes, I love cufflinks. They are an important part of any classy gentleman’s wardrobe.
These Pac-Man cufflinks would go best with a glass of expensive champagne and some polite dinner conversation. Etsian CsCharms has crafted them perfectly out of enamel and silver plated brass, as it was done in the Victorian era.
I know not everyone is a Harry Potter fan, but boy, I am. I loved HP 7.2, and have the $17.25 (!) IMAX 3D ticket receipt to show for it! I’ve read and re-read all the books over the last ten years and yes, even knitted a teeny-tiny Gryffindor scarf (the one in the picture). To celebrate/commemorate the end of the movie series, Chronicle Books is giving away a copy of my book, World of Geekcraft! They posted some pretty cute ideas for fans who are trying to cope with a post-Harry world. If you comment there adding your own suggestions by 8/11, you can win a copy of the book, and craft your own HP baby or toddler costume to introduce the next generation to the series…
