TARDIS Pinata

tardis pinata
It’s finally May, the sun is shining and every country seems to have some kind of holiday right now. Yes, it’s time for a festive craft!

Instructable’s Mostlymade shows us some heavily detailed instructions for a TARDIS pinata. For those of you who don’t want to break down anything that even remotely looks like a police box, the pinata comes with pull strings. However, if you’re sure the TARDIS doesn’t like you, feel free to use a baseball bat. Now, wouldn’t it be great if this one was bigger on the inside too? Imagine all the candy that could fit into it…

TARDIS sewing box

I absolutely adore this wibbly wobbly TARDIS sewing box!! Joesuplicki on Craftster made this amazing sewing box from scratch! What a fantastic idea! I would love to have a suitably geeky sewing box for all my geeky crafts! I love the attention to detail, down to the character pins and the details inside the TARDIS (it’s bigger on the inside!). I wish I had the skills to make one of these!

Look WHO It Is!

Geek Charming - Doctors

Ever wish you could travel with the Doctor? Or more than one Doctor? Well now you can! These little mini Doctor’s can go anywhere with you; on your keychain, around your neck, or in your Tardis (aka the bottomless pit that is your knapsack). These little guys are amongst many mini-me’s, and other geeky accessories, created by cosplayer Dex Morgan of Geek Charming. You can also check out her facebook page for more geeky goodies and awesome cosplay!
Disclaimer: Sales of the Doctors do not include rides in the Tardis.

TARDIS Cake

TARDIS Cake

I’ve been working in the realm of fandom for a long time.  I’ve had the pleasure of meeting many talented and crafty fans.  And yes, I’ve seen quite a few geeky cakes.  But, this TARDIS cake is, by far, one of the most impressive cakes I’ve ever seen.

Leigh Henderson, a cake artist and theatrical designer, took to her website, Do It Myself, to showcase just what happens when sci-fi geek meets designer meets baker.  She created a quarter scale (or two-f00t-tall) TARDIS cake that looks like it’s bigger on the inside, with the help of two convex mirrors!

Introducing Marsha

Hey all, I will be your regular Friday morning blogger so I thought I would throw a bit of introduction at you first. I am a long time crafter, currently focused on knitting, spinning, and bead working to name a few things that I get my own crafty hands busy with.  So I’m sure geeky knits will be prominent.

I tend to roam the internet as One Geek to Craft Them All, so that should point out at least one geeky place that is precious to me. I’m a fan of comics, fantasy, mythology, magic, cosplay, and plenty of others. To be more specific things that own a place in my heart, include but are not limited to, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Harry Dresden, Game of Thrones, Star Trek, Supernatural, Harry Potter; you know the basics. The list goes ever on.

In my day to day life I put my Master’s in Industrial/Organizational Psychology to use as Research Associate at a management consultant firm.  I can feel your eyes glazing over from here so I’m gonna stop there. It’s for the best really. My closest friends only vaguely understand what I do. I like statistics, I play with them for a living, is close enough, really.

I’ll see everyone bright an early on  Friday and until then I leave you with a handmade Tardis dress I have been trying to talk myself out of buying by Lex from  Smarmy Clothes.
