Another *cute* Cthulhu, but here is one from Craftster user FicklePegasus. She crocheted this baby blanket complete with pacifier holder. And in case you were thinking Cthulhu for Halloween, don’t forget this costume.
merricat posted this baby dragon cape she sewed over on Instructables. Click through to see the wings, plus step-by-step photos of how she made the eyes with polymer clay.
Every once in awhile I scan cakewrecks in an effort to feel better about my cake decorating abilities, and come up short because they have chosen to post something like this Star Wars Baby Shower Cake made by Woulett Bakery. Honestly? I don’t have words other than: pure, deep fried, golden, awesome. The perfect geeky shower cake for the Dark-Side loving expectant parent in your life.
Pregnancy comes with all kinds of inconvienences. You feel sick for the first three months and spend the majority of the time looking for a bathroom. It does have its advantages though, for instance, you can spend all of your free time looking a teeny cute clothes, toys and bedding and call it “planning” for your new baby. I was doing just that when I ran across babyrocksmohawks‘ Baby Viking Hat on etsy. Tell me this isn’t pure golden awesome. I was thrilled by her hot pink and “atomic blue” mohawk hats, but I think this Baby Viking Hat really takes the cake.
Craftster user ChrisSews wanted to make something that a guy would enjoy opening at a couples baby shower. Since the guy in question is into zombies, she came up with a Zombie Training ball. She says,
I embroidered the baby zombie, and the “Future Zombie Hunter” on black satin and white flannel. I found this great black and red skull fabric and also used some red velvet, red grid fleece, white striped terry to make lots of different textures for the baby. I also added some ribbon taggies. I finished it off with black felt end caps embroidered with the biohazard symbol.
This baby will be prepared for the inevitable zombie invasion right from the start!
