I’m not sure if The Neverending Story is truly geeky or just beloved by children of the ’80s, but dragons are inherently a bit geeky, no? At least that’s my reasoning behind sharing this Falcor [sic] the Luck Dragon necklace. Also: It’s flat-out adorable. As are some of the other goodies in Rude & Reckless’ Etsy shop—this Monocled Octopus Necklace is particularly enchanting.
It’s a little weird that I’m doing a second Neverending Story post. I mean, if you asked “Do you like The Neverending Story?” of course I would say “Yes,” but it’s not a fandom I’m deeply into, either, if that makes any sense. I’ve never made my own, for instance, felted Falkor. (I encourage you to click through. Irma Hoani, also known as “FairySpit” on Etsy, took many detailed photos of this really lovely piece of felted art. She even has a post about the work in progress!)
But I don’t control what things I find on the internet during any given week, do I? (Shh. Quiet, you.) That’s the coolest thing I’ve seen this week, so that’s what I’m sharing. :)
Ohhh, you guys, you are not going to believe this! I found an eReader/tablet cover that looks like the book from The Neverending Story! (Am I dating myself, here? I hope not. I loved that movie when I was a kid and can still quote large swaths of it from memory.)
The cover is made by GrimcatProductions, on Etsy, and it is delightful! As the product description says, “Modern digital book readers and tablets can holds thousands and thousands of books – truly a never-ending supply!”
I’d really like to have one of these, but my Sony Reader Pocket Edition already has a very pretty case (also from Etsy). You’d better believe this Neverending Story cover is on my wish list if I upgrade, though! And then? Maybe I’ll finally read the book. (I’m a terrible librarian, sometimes.)
