Top 5 Video Game…Post-It Note Art!

Thursday, March 22nd, 2012

Hey everyone!  This week’s Top 5 is all about the most creative Post-It Notes projects based on video game characters.  I don’t know why I have never thought of this.  Time to head to my local Staples and clean them out…

This is probably the most epic in scale Post-Its project I have seen, scaling the entire side of a building; and the fact that it’s an entire Donkey Kong stage is just icing on the cake.  Poor Pauline…hurry up Jump Man!

Recycled Atari Desk Clocks

Monday, September 14th, 2009

Can’t afford em crafts is selling these recycled atari game cartridges as desk clocks…I love them, but I feel like the ET clock should be $15 instead of $20…it has to have less value as it is often considered to be the worst game of all time…
