Farnsworth

 

As an avid Warehouse 13 fan, I’ve searched high and low for awesome Warehouse 13 crafts. The results are saddening.

However, I managed to come across this amazing Farnsworth necklace based off the communicators used by the agents of Warehouse 13. The Farnsworths, invented by Philo Farnsworth (inventor of the television), are a Warehouse exclusive. But now you can have your own, just hanging around your neck or pinned to your jacket.

Just be sure to answer when Artie calls.

Another Newbie

Kaitlen with parasol

Hey everyone! I’m Kaitlen, another new addition to the Geek Crafts family. First of all, I have a confession: I’m awful at video games. My hand-eye coordination is such that I’m more likely to injure myself with the controller than I am to actually beat a board. That didn’t stop me from working at some gaming mags, though…and developing a slight Katamari addiction.

Fortunately, I make up for my lack of gaming talent with my excellent crafting skills. Screenprinting, sculpting, painting, jewelry-making—I’ve done it all. (Except knit, for some reason.) I also seem to devote quite a lot of time to consuming great geek fodder such as Firefly, Futurama, Doctor Who, Buffy, and, well, a lot more. And it’s always a pleasure to combine my geekiness with my craftiness, like when I sculpt Flying Spaghetti Monster Christmas ornaments or make necklaces out of circuit boards.

I also run the lifestyle/fashion/design blog pinup.punkrockelite.org. Oh, and feel free to follow me on Twitter at @kaitlen or @punkpinup. I’ll be back here on Thursday—see you then!

Left 4 Dead Health Pack earrings

 

I like to think of myself as a helpful person.  I bring a net positive to most situations.

Left4Dead Healthpacks

Except…
There is a specific circumstance during which, I have found, I am downright useless:

Zombie Apocalypses
Gentle reader, should there be a zombie apocalypse, you do not want me anywhere near you. I’ll be worthless.

I will stumble around with my pistols, clumsily shooting at your butt, and thrash about in Boomer Bile. And if you get hurt, oh goodness, if  you were to get hurt, I will have already used up my healthpack. By accident. When I was trying to equip a flashlight.
That is what brings us here, kids. I am loving these ‘lil Left 4 Dead polymer clay earrings. Hand sculpted, painted, and glazed, the earrings are mounted on pure silver fish-hooks. They are small and light-weight as well, so you can wear them comfortably. More importantly, you can wear them and dream that you are the kind of person that always has a spare healthpack with them and they’ll stay on, even if you’re carrying a flashlight. Everyone’s butts are safe!

Apocalypse, interrupted. You are a hero, Kristina Tuck.

There is a lot more video game inspired jewelry where these guys came from, so be sure to check out Ms. Tuck’s Etsy page.

Harness the Power of the Keyblade

When battling the Heartless, it’s always good to have your trusty Keyblade with you.

Jewelry by Aimee has created the perfect necklaces to carry your many different keyblades with you at all times.

These necklaces are awesome, and come in a handful of the different kinds of Keyblades found in Kingdom Hearts. My personal favorites are the Fairy Harp Keyblade and the Oathkeeper Keyblade.

Reader Submission: Morse Code “Epic Win” Necklace

Here‘s a submission from Megan “Captain Girl Geek” at the Girl Geek Boutique.

“Gunmetal silver beads (as dots) and silver, gold, and copper striped electronic components (choke coils, as dashes) spell out the phrase “EPIC WIN” in morse code: “. .–. .. -.-. .– .. -.”.”

If your first thought was WEWT!… hey… she’s got the earrings for you!

I’m kind of thinking of this as a princess-and-the-pea kind of deal. A girl geek walks around with this around her neck and the day a suave geeky male points and shouts “EPIC WIN” with a smug smile on his face is the day she’s found a geek worthy of being her Prince Charming…. or something…
