Star Wars Infusible Ink Projects

To celebrate Star Wars Day I thought it would be fun to make some Star Wars projects with my Cricut. I wanted to use Infusible Ink transfer sheets because I love to combine the galaxy prints with  Star Wars designs. 

Metal Mandalorian Sign (and Baby Yoda Themed Christmas Tree)

One of my favorite parts of Christmas is setting up and decorating the Christmas tree. Our big tree that goes in our front room is full of all sorts of mismatched ornaments that have been collected over the years. It isn't the most Instagram worthy, beautiful tree, but I absolutely love it. It is full of memories and it is the kind of tree we always had when I was a kid. But there is also a part of me that always wants to make a themed tree too so when we decided to set up our small tree in the basement I decided I wanted to do a theme. 

Death Star Ornament

Yesterday I published a new pattern on Fairfield World's site and today I wanted to share it here. When I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do for my project I had decided I wanted to make a Christmas ornament. I really wanted something that could be used for Christmas but I wanted something small that would be easy for people to make since it was going to go on the site only a week and a half before Christmas. I thought an ornament was the perfect thing. Last year I made some really traditional ornaments for Christmas, a Santa, a Snowman, a Toy Soldier, and a Penguin. So far this Christmas I have kind of done the opposite, mostly very non-traditional ornaments. Colorful Owls for my sister and nieces, a painted Pokeball for one of my nephews, a paper dinosaur ornament for another. As a result I couldn't really decided what I wanted to do for this one. I asked my husband for ideas and he mentioned that the new Star Wars Rogue One movie was coming out this weekend, in fact he is taking our boys after school today to go see it. I thought that would be a fun theme to go with and decided on a Death Star.

Geeky Baby Onesie Ideas- Plus 2 Free Cut Files

We only have one month left until this baby boy gets here so we have started getting everything ready, washing all of the little baby clothes, getting a new car seat, setting up the cradle, etc. I actually got rid of a lot of our little baby boy clothes a few years ago because I thought that Maren might be our last baby and a lot of the stuff that we have left is not exactly seasonally appropriate. Our other boys were born in January and March, this little guy is coming the end of July. As a result we figured he might be spending the first month or two mostly in onesies. Since I got my Cricut a few months ago I have had fun designing some shirts and onesies, in fact the very first project I made was actually a baby onesie, so we figured it would be fun to design some onesies for the baby.

Soft Toy Crocheted Lightsaber

Today I am over at The Geeky Mormon sharing the pattern for this crocheted lightsaber. I wanted to make it for little kids or babies so it is not very big, about 11 inches long, but it is nice and soft, perfect for babies first lightsaber. You also won't need to worry about toddlers hitting people with it because it is just filled with stuffing so they won't really be able to hurt anyone. You can find the free pattern here.

A Star Wars Valentine: Geek Craft on The Geeky Mormon

It has been quite a while since I have done a Geek Craft post on The Geeky Mormon. I am going to try to do that more frequently this year. Today I have a geeky valentine project to share. If you, like me, have someone you love who likes geeky things, and more specifically Star Wars, than this is a fun, easy gift to make for them.  I have to admit that although I am married to a geek, I have still not seen all of the Star Wars movies all the way through but I did know about this scene and I thought it would be fun to make it into a gift for my husband somehow. In his office he has a wall of geeky pictures, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Superheroes, etc. I thought, why not make him something to hang on that wall and came up with the idea of a framed embroidery.

If you want to make your own you can find the downloadable pattern and instructions on how to make it by clicking over to The Geeky Mormon. Enjoy.
