Home is Where the Lego Is Cross-Stitch
Flickr user, sarahxsea, created this awesome cross-stitch for some friends as a thank you/housewarming gift. They gave me an awesome Lego set of an RV when I moved into my apartment last year, so I thought I would return the favor! It’s an rad gift indeed! I love it.
Clever overhead garage storage hack
Great storage idea from user tluwelyn of survivalist community Alpha Disaster Contingencies. Dimensional lumber is bolted together to make Ts and Ls that, in turn, are bolted to the ceiling joists. Heavy-duty storage totes are then slid in and suspended by their molded-in rims. Looks like there’s still plenty of room to park cars underneath.
How-To: Duck with Raspberry Sauce
Kitty Greenwald over at Etsy has a delicious-looking recipe for duck with raspberry sauce. I’ll keep this one bookmarked for a special occasion.
Insane 40K Computer Casemod
Emperor be praised! Holy Machine God! Priests of Mars, eat your steam-powered hearts out! Via Kotaku (by way of DudeCraft) comes this unreal Warhammer 40,000 Dreadnought casemod — yes, there’s a PC in there somewhere. I love the way the assault cannon actually spins up. In the future there are only incredible case mods
Tarp Surfing
Behold, the primo barrel waves of tarp surfing. Ruse Entertainment shows us how it’s done. It’s the little touches like the rash guard and dog tow-in that made me laugh extra hard!
How-To: Badminton Birdie Ruffle Pendant
Michelle of Mich L. in L.A. saw great potential in the remnants of a dollar store going out of business sale. She shows how you can turn just about anything into a fun pendant that can be styled several different ways. Thanks Heather and Diane!
