Steampunk Cthulhu Goggles

Etsy is always a great place to find the extraordinary, and the things that can’t even be described with a word that includes “ordinary”. Steampunk Cthulhu Goggles by RobinRed, completely fantastical and beautifully crafted.

Cthulhu Tree Topper

Nothing says Christmas like Cthulhu. I found this hand felted Cthulhu Tree Topper while browsing Etsy. NifNak‘s Etsy shop is full of every kind of felted wool creature and craft you can dream of, including Cthulhu ornaments to match the tree topper, or Flying Spaghetti Monster ornaments and tree toppers for the snarky Atheist in your life.

Crocheted Spock Head

Here’s something awesome from Amy – we’ve been dazzled by her amigurumi skills before and now she’s crocheting mounted trophy heads. You can buy Yetis and Cthulhu, but I’m quite enamored with Spock. (It’s so weird, I’m not really a Star Trek fan, but something about old school Spock really appeals to me.) Definitely check out her blog and Etsy shop.

Cthulhu Hat

There is nothing I enjoy more than getting to use the words “Cthulu” and “cute” in the same sentence, and thanks to Jainatina‘s etsy shop, I can! This cute Cthulu Hat is made of fleece with satin eyes, perfect for keeping you warm and geekily stylish.

Etsy seller pinktoque just introduced a line of soaps she calls GEEKSOAP. She’s got all sorts of fun designs – Facebook and Twitter, Batman and these operating system logos. She’s also got some cool Cthulhu stuff.
