Will you marry me?

"For Her ->
When he takes your hand at the end of your date and notices this ring set, he'll know he's found the one.

For Him ->
We're making it easy to show her your true romantic side,
who wouldn't agree that this a perfect engagement ring set.

Star Wars Ring Set I Consists of
C3PO in Yellow,
R2D2 in White
And Yoda in Green

You will receive a set of 3 rings which stack together.

We've designed the elements to balance and compliment each other.
All artwork is originally crafted.

In order to mix and match sets we can leave the rings separated;
you just stack them on your pretty fingers any way you'd like ;)

Or let us know if you'd like them bonded together in a three ring stack."

What year is it again?

"Didn't think you needed an iPad? Think again!
When the iPad was announced, we all crammed into a conference room to watch live and drool over every shiny corner and reflecty icon. After the glow of the initial announcement wore off, many of us came to the conclusion that the iPad was actually pretty useless. "It's a giant iPhone!" some said. Others exclaimed, "WTF, no Flash!?". Still, we knew that most Apple fanbots (us included) would have to have one anyway.
Knowing that many of our loyal geeky customers would eventually get their retractable claws on an iPad at some point, we knew we needed to take it to the next level. What cool things could we do with the iPad that you, our lovely geek customers, would squee over? A few brainstorming sessions later, the idea of a MAME cabinet came up and we knew we'd struck gold. How cool would it be to slide your iPad into a desktop-sized arcade cabinet and rock it old school with some Battlezone or Tempest?
Enter the iCADE iPad Arcade Cabinet! To use the iCade, gently slide the iPad into the cradle. The iCADE uses Bluetooth to connect to the iPad so there's nothing else you need to do. You're ready to "insert coin" and game on!
To bring the iCADE to life, ThinkGeek has partnered with ION. Atari, the first name in classic arcade games, also signed up to bring a huge suite of classic arcade titles including Asteroids® to market with iCADE support built right in. When released, a friendly API will be made available to developers to add iCADE support to almost any game."

"These are not the droids you're looking for..." - 2

"Hand knit hat is based on the Star Wars character R2D2. This hat is perfect for anyone who loves Star Wars or even for yourself! (I made one for myself and can't take it off!) You are sure to all kinds of compliments on this one! What's cooler than making beeping noises and hanging out with C3PO and the gang anyway?

Knit hat has just about every detail from your favorite droid right down to his projector!

This is probably the coolest thing i've ever designed in all my years of knitting. I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner! I originally made one for my best friend's little guy from a striped hat pattern I made years ago. After I was done, I knew I had to make them for big kids too!"

I want to go on a Rubik binge!

"Back when the Rubik's Cube was in its hey day, the kitchen was probably mostly foreign territory for you. Sure, you could toast a mean Pop Tart or pour yourself a giant bowl of Cap'n Crunch, but anything beyond that was likely outside the realm of your culinary ability. Boy, how things have changed - now you're a microwave ninja and can follow perfectly the 4 steps on the back of any box. Your mac-and-cheese is legendary. A hot dog from your kitchen is even better than the ones you can get from the gas station stop shop. What better way to pay some homage to the days of your culinary roots then with these puzzling retro style grinders.
Each cube is built around a high-quality ceramic grinding mill. The top layer of the cube rotates to operate the mill. The action of grinding the pepper or salt has the same feel and sound as the classic Rubik's cube puzzle. Dimensions: 5.7 x 5.7 x 5.7cm"

Jurassic Lark

" If movies are anything to go on, it would seem there are several ways to build your own dinosaur. We could generate one with the help of some amber, a mosquito, and extracted DNA--but those of us without a high-tech laboratory on a top secret island generally miss out on the fun. Until now, that is.

The Remote Control T-Rex is a customizable, 3D puzzle that not only has a working remote control, but a motion sensor to bring your prehistoric dreams to life. Paint it your favorite color and watch it roar, snap and chase after little prey to your heart's delight. Like a remote-control car, but so much cooler (and with zero percent chance of a hostile, dino takeover.) Assembled in Ohio of sustainable basswood from Russia and parts from China. Assembly required, but no glue needed! Requires three AA (T-Rex) and two AAA (remote) batteries, included."

Spinach and Table Dip

"The Artichoke table was designed in concept to represent an organic form that has been split in half to reveal its core. The core of this table was modeled after the cross section of an artichoke. This body of the table is made from shop-molded plywood faced with exceptional zebra wood veneer and coopered to form the elliptical shell. Cocobolo legs are mortised into the shell to make this table heirloom quality. Artist Scott Harris skillfully executed the acrylic painting on the top of the table. The painting has been sanded flat and treated to act as a durable tabletop."

Haemophilus influenzae

"The card included with each soap reads:
“This petri dish soap is designed to look exactly like what you’re trying to wash off: bacteria! This particular soap is modeled after Haemophilus influenzae on chocolate agar. H. influenzae type b (Hib) is the cause of pneumonia, bacteremia, and acute bacterial meningitis.”

It’s a funny reminder to wash well so you get those germs off and stay healthy.

Soap consists of an all natural, hypo-allergenic coconut oil base. This base, when un-dyed, has a slight amber color due to the all natural ingredients… making it look even more realistic as petri dish agar

This “bacteria” is good for your skin too. Scented with a chocolate fragrance that has nothing to do with bacteria, but smells fantastic."

Gaa Gaa Physics

"Start baby out right! This is the perfect introduction to the amazing world of the atomic nucleus. The book will teach and entertain with its bright contrasting patterns, varying textures and engaging crinkle sound.

An atom with yellow nucleus, the Big Bang, fission/fusion, and a nuclear power plant are illustrated by eco-felt appliqués stitched with embroidery thread.

Your book will be very similar to the book pictured, with the same design, but possibly with different fabrics and slight variations due to the handmade nature. If you have a color preference for the fabrics, please indicate in the notes to seller, and I will do my best to accommodate your choices.

This book has six pages, plus the front and back covers. It measures approximately 10" X 4 3/4" when open, not including the Velcro tab closure. A dark blue soft denim makes up the cover, and the inside pages are tan linen. The fabric is upcycled from cleaned, gently-used clothing and vintage fabric.

In addition to batting for thickness, I've sewn a clean, safe, post-consumer food-grade plastic inside every page to create the wonderful crinkly sound that babies and even some adults love!"
