Easy Crafts Wikia Interview with Bonnie Burton

Loved this Easy Crafts Wikia interview Christina Loff did with Star Wars author + blogger extraordinaire Bonnie Burton this month! It’s full of gems like this one:

EC: Which Star Wars character do you think would be the craftiest?

BB: I’d like to think that Yoda knits when he’s alone… I’d love to see the kind of craft projects Yoda would come up with. He probably has a model of the Jedi Academy made completely out of toothpicks.

That I’d like to see!

Reader Submission: Felt Space Man

Geekcrafts reader Stephanie used the Submit a Geekcraft link to show us this super-cute spaceman and rocket:

“I made this felt spaceman and rocket pillow for my friend’s 3 year old son. The spaceman is handsewn acrylic felt. “

I’m so jealous of that 3 year old! … but then that’s nothing new… I’m jealous of anyone whose biggest ethical dilemmas of the day is whether it’s right or wrong to use the cat as a pencil sharpener…

An Early Christmas Gift: Star Trek Ornaments

Star Trek Christmas tree ornament Fresh on the heels of the announcement that J.J. Abrams has officially signed on to direct ‘Star Trek 2’, I bring you another gift – Star Trek ornaments, a la Katie at Punk Projects.

Star Trek Nativity scene Delightful in their simplicity, these Star Trek ornaments go together easy-peasy-quick. Which means you can put a significant dent in that stash of bottlecaps and Scrabble letter tiles that *some* scrapbookers might have laying about (not pointing any fingers, and certainly not at myself!)

Might I add how much I love that Katie has a whole Christmas tree dedicated to Star Trek, AND a peg people Nativity scene??
