Crocheted Bender
Who’s everyone’s favorite booze guzzling, foul-mouthed, kleptomaniac robot? Well, that’s easy! Bender! I don’t know why we see so many more Bender crafts than any other character from Futurama, but I love them! Coryjo posted her Crocheted Bender on craftster, he’s cute, he’s cuddly, and he’ll do anything to make a buck.

TEN Awesome Iron Man Crafts & Projects
Who didn’t love the Iron Man movie? Here are ten of the most awesome Iron Man craft projects that you can do for $20 grand or less…most of them a LOT less!
Iron Man Full Body Suit
The Popular Mechanics website featured this “home made” Iron Man suitcrafted by Norweigan costume enthusiast, John Kristiansen and a group of his friends that call themselves TMP. They attempted to create this costume before the May release of the Iron Man film, with nothing but promo pictures of the suit and twenty-thousand dollars.
Yes, you read that correctly! Kristiansen and his pals spent TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS on this realistic costume. It came out so close to perfect that Paramount hired Kristiansen to make appearances around Europe to promote the DVD release, and he plans to use it for charity fundraisers and to talk to children about saftey, saying:
you may not listen to your parents, but if Iron Man tells you to wear a bike helmet, you’re going to do it.
So next time you have an extra twenty thousand sitting around, consider building a costume for a major-blockbuster film!
