3 Last Minute DIY Gift Ideas!

Comic-Book-Magnets-2

The holiday clock is definitely ticking, and if you’ve still got shopping to do, never fear! You’ve still got time to make something handmade. Take those comic book magnets in the picture above. They’re super simple, and they’d make great stocking stuffers. Just check out the tutorial by Amanda Formaro over on her blog Crafts by Amanda for step-by-step instructions.  She’s even got a separate tutorial on making a comic book decoupage picture frame if you’re looking for something a little more special.

Ewok

Mollie over at Wild Olive has a tutorial on making your very own little, cuddly, Mini Ewok Softie.  This little Wicket would make the best stocking stuffer!

May the bars be in your favor!

Check out this cell phone decorated with adorable chibi Katniss, Gale and Peeta! Everyone seems to be a bit obsessed with bars lately. Can you use your cell phone here…or here…no, maybe just outside of this door and to the left. We go through some weird antics just to be able to send a quick text, tweet or make that important phone call. At least while we wander around like a person possessed trying to find that elusive bar, we can look good.

Can you hear me now? Do I care? My cell phone looks AWESOME!

Artifact Roadshow

I’ve mentioned it before, and I’ll say it again, I love the SyFy series Warehouse 13. That show has a little something for every sci-fi fan. For such an amazing show, the crafts that stem from it are few and far between. I’ve searched high and low for crafts that are inspired by this amazing show, and generally come up empty. Even finding t-shirts has been a struggle.

That is, until I ran across Comickergirl on Redbubble. In addition to having a t-shirt that is compiled of quotes from my favorite character (Claudia Donovan), she’s created other shirts for this amazing series. From a shirt that advertises the goo Warehouse Agents have to use for catching artifacts, to an iPhone case that looks like the Farnsworths’ (I’ve never wanted to own an iPhone so much in my entire life). They’re all a soon to be staple in my geek wardrobe.

Doctor Who Roundup

Happy Friday Everyone!

It’s  the very first roundup of 2011 and I’m here to show off the many awesome Doctor Who crafts around the web.

**********

10. A TARDIS Ring

Not only is this a TARDIS you can wear on your finger, it sparkles! This appeals to both my nerd side and my need for bling. Maybe if you’re lucky, your special someone will give this to you for Valentine’s Day. I know my fingers are crossed!

**********

9.  Doctor Who Charm

Was David Tennant your favourite Doctor? Then show off your love for him with this fabulous polymer clay charm. He even comes equipped with his signature sonic screwdriver and black rimmed glasses.

***********

8. Make Your Own K-9

Know what your house is missing? Your own personal K-9 unit.  It would go fabulously with your TARDIS.

They even give you directions  for LED eyes. He is absolutely adorable and I will be making my very own soon!

***********

7. K-9 Cross Stitch

While we’re on the topic of K-9, why does he look so disco? If you’re not commited enough to make your own 3d K-9, you can always make him into a darling cross-stitch to hang on your wall.

**********

6. Crocheted Sonic Screwdriver

No matter his form, Doctor Who never leaves his TARDIS without his sonic screwdriver and you shouldn’t either! It’s soft and bendy so you can easily cram it into a pocket. You never know when it might come in handy.

**********

5. TARDIS Phone Case

What better way to keep your phone looking shiny and new than a TARDIS case? It’s made of soft felt so it’s functional and fun.

**********

4. Doctor Who Regenerations Peg People

Can’t pick a favourite Doctor? There’s no need with this awesome collection! They are only a little under 3″ tall so you can have one pretty much anywhere in your house. Everywhere you look can be a different Doctor!

**********

3. Colourful Dalek Pins

They come in many different colours, so you can buy one to match every outfit! Any time someone questions you about it, you can yell “EXTERMINATE!” and see what happens!

**********

2. The Fourth Doctor Mini Watercolour

I don’t know about you, but my favourite Doctor hands down is Tom Baker. This artist has done a great job of capturing all of the fourth Doctor’s awesomeness on a tiny medium. It would look great framed on your wall!

**********

1. Doctor Who Crochet Scarf

The true sign of a Doctor Who Geek is the  scarf.

This one isn’t quite as long as most of them out there, so you will be *less* likely to trip over it.

Be the envy of your Doctor friends with this fabulous scarf, I know I’d be jealous!
