I LOVE me some cross stitch. My Granny taught me when I was quite young, and I’ve made several projects as gifts over the years.

But I’ve never made anything like this:

Based on Pop Culture, this artist has made some hilarious creations! (Some of them are NSFW due to language.)

We absolutely love them all!

I’ve been in my teeny tiny hometown for a couple of days, and I know many other people are in the post-Christmas slump. Let’s look at something cool, shall we?

A Macquarium! For your Betta fish! It’s brilliant and pretty and not at all a Craftastrophe. Happy Tuesday!

Cat Rocketship is an artist and is too lazy for fish.

It is a little-known fact that I hate elves. Elves are creepy. Elves are weird. Elves are scary. And NO, I am not going to any midnight showing of “Lord of the Rings” with you, thank you very much.

Given my elf-loathing, I fully expected to hate these Elf Cloaks.

It must be a Christmas miracle, because even my hard little elf-hating heart is charmed by them. I kind of want to go to a concert in the woods and twirl around a lot.

Suebob is all twirly at heart.

What happens when those aging punk rockers put down their safety pins and pick up crochet needles?

Sid and Nancy’s grisly murder scene.  Made out of crochet.  The only thing missing is a paper mache Hotel Chelsea.

Croshame, as the artist calls herself, also created this beauty entitled “Hogtied.” (more…)

I’ve always thought of my oven as the Death Star, so imagine my excitement when I found this beauty!

What better way to keep Chewbacca close to your heart, than to literally have his likeness over your heart?!  The artists takes vintage bed sheets and upcycles them into flirty housewares like pillows, pot holders, and tote bags.

How exactly does a houseware flirt anyway?

Sure, with this particular beauty Darth Vader is a little close to your *ahem* Dagobah System, but maybe you like to live on the Dark Side.  I’m not judging….much.  Besides, it’s probably better to have Darth there than a gaggle of those Ewoks.
