prepare to be jealous. even if you believe me and think you’re prepared, you’re not. this post is a little pic heavy, but well worth it.

Nintendo Room Shelves

Amazing Custom Gameroom!

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009

after yesterdays post about the Donkey Kong Shelving, I got an email from the creator Casey. It turns out he is also the creator of the amazing NES Controller Coffee Table that I posted about last year…He was nice enough to send in some photos of the game room, and I thought I’d post them up to make you drool for awhile…

Nintendo Wine Charms

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

What a great practical use for geeky crafts! I don’t really host parties, but these cute and very nicely detailed wine glass charms may be enough to get me to do so. Just make sure your friends don’t start fighting over the Zelda and Mario cartridges. For our non-drinking readers, there are always the cufflink or earring versions instead!
