One of my all time favorite Star Wars characters is a certain feisty, little robot. R2D2 is plucky, unstoppable “bucket of bolts” who wins our hearts without ever saying a word. On Craftster, StickerChic87 created a fantastic R2D2 mini art quilt.
Who wouldn’t love to have this little guy hanging on a wall in their house?
Do you have an old-school geeky dad in your life? With father’s day right around the corner, Virginie Millefior might have something up his alley. These little aliens are “sawn-off from a sheet of brass, molded and cast into brass to create two identical space invaders cufflinks.”
If you are an aficionado of old video games, but have no need to link cuffs, fear not! Ms. Millefior also has necklaces, rings, and other trinkets that pay homage to our favorite games of the late 70s/early 80s.
I saw these Star Wars light saber lamps online recently and really wanted one for my sci-fi-themed office. Unfortunately, I couldn’t justify spending $65 on it – and even if I could, they’re not actually out yet. Every place I have looked has them sold out or not available yet. But… could I make one? I remembered a toy light saber I had seen at recently for ~$10. I saw a DIY cityscape lampshade recently online not too long ago that I could use the same concepts for the shade. My daughter has an Ikea lamp that would be perfect for this. So, I made a Star Wars lightsaber lamp for about $20. Here’s how…
PERCOLATE!
Who wouldn’t love drinking coffee out of this amazing mug. Daleks are not knowing for feeling emotion, so when two fall in love it is truly a special thing to behold. Now you can commemorate this once in a life time occasion every morning while you drink your coffee.
The mug was made by Betwixxt on Etsy, and she has some other awesome gems in her shop like this K-9 mug or this Penguin mug with a twist!
An amazing piece of artwork in stained glass. That is AidanT‘s mission and it seems he’s accomplishing it with wonderful results. The piece shown is easily recognizable to even the most casual Star Trek fan. Starfleet’s insignia is worn on the uniforms of every member from the lowest cadet to the highest admiral, for while evolving over the years and various reboots of Star Trek, it has maintained a very recognizable form. Aidan has created a beautiful depiction of it in stained glass.
Aidan also has crafted a 3D version of the insignia as well.
