Cookies
Posted by Danielle in Collectibles, Food & Drink, Home & Office on January 18, 2011
While I’m no fan of the Dark Side of the Force, this Death Star cookie jar does seem to be conclusive proof of the statement, “Come to the Dark Side, we have cookies.”
Star Wars Christmas, Reimagined
Posted by Danielle in Advertising & Media, Art & Architecture, Entertainment on December 24, 2010
Tempting though it might be to go to YouTube and dig up the fantastically awful Star Wars Christmas special for epic embedding, I instead present some very awesome posters by Olly Moss, designed for Mondo. (Via Fanboy.com.)
This is one creative set of illustrations: the twin suns as C3PO’s eyes, and the Bespin/Fett mashup is terrific. Even Darth Vader has to admit, he looks good in ‘trees’.

As I frequently apologize for mention, I try not to overwhelm this blog with my fandom of choice, but some things are too beautiful to let them pass me by. (Via DBSW.)
Charmed
Posted by Danielle in Fashion & Accessories on June 9, 2010
I really have been trying to post less Star Wars things, but this charm bracelet knocked me out from a creative/beader standpoint. (I’d love to know where the silver/gold spotty beads come from. Pretty stuff!)
Star Wars Day
Posted by Danielle in Entertainment, Picspam on May 4, 2010
I found this post weeks ago. I wasn’t intentionally waiting for Star Wars Day, but here we are, so here you go: “Artist Steve Bialik represents legendary Star Wars characters as samurai from traditional Japanese art.”

This post inspired by Woot’s Bag of (Random) Crap, because……. just because. Random space images.
This is just… extremely cool. ↑
This lovely lady was sent to me by a friend. ↓

Buenaventura, Gioconda 2001 by David Teixidor
This makes the VAB look terribly mysterious. Puts a little more -fi in the sci? ↓

And finally, here’s a striking Jawa. ↓
Crafty Star Wars
Posted by Danielle in Crafts & Hobbies on April 5, 2010
I will always be a Star Wars geek. Yes, I like Star Trek, but it’s not like you can crochet a USS Enterprise amigurumi… well, ok, maybe you can, but, point being, there’s lots of things to craft when it comes to the Star Wars universe, and I am not seeing a bunch of Star Trek crafts online. You see? Star Wars WINS. Ahem. ANYWAY. I flipped when I saw these amigurumi at Geek Dad, especially Chewie here. Chewie, you are adorable and totally worth buying a $3.50 pattern so I can create you myself. (You can buy all ten patterns on Etsy.)
Another item in the amazing crafts department is this metro-ticket X-Wing fighter:
It’s a thing of beauty, truly. (I love the X-Wing.) Them being Paris metro tickets makes them that much cooler, I admit.
Last but certainly not least: not really a craft, but LEGO art of the most charming sort. A cross between Star Wars and the utmost in British sensibilities, the cup of TEA. The creator has made the two Keep Calm and Carry On posters available for sale as cards and posters: Imperial version | Rebel version
Planet Posters

I owe my finding of these fantastic Star Wars planet “poster” graphics to my friend Lexa (who makes me look like I have merely a casual interest in the Star Wars universe. Which, uh… is really not the case!!) I dearly hope justinvg gets these made as actual posters; they’d go so well with the IYA 2009 posters which I long to own.
UPDATE: Posters available here!!

West Coast Defense
Posted by Danielle in Computer & Internet, Entertainment, Picspam on August 21, 2009
I love Star Wars, so naturally this Flickr set of poster and wallpaper-quality pictures thrilled me to bits. (Not that I want the Imperial forces to invade San Francisco, of course… but the imagery is pretty darn awesome, I have to admit.) Get the whole set here!
