TMNT Coffee Cup Cozy

tmnt coffee cozy

Once again, you probably thought that slapping down a few bucks would earn you a unique handmade accessory – in this case a TMNT coffee cup cozy. The good news is that you’re right, as long as you take Etsy out of the equation and send those bucks into the cash registers of craft shops, where you’ll be buying tools to knit, knit, knit your way to wrapping Michelangelo’s mutant face around your cup of Sanka.

You can get the pattern here.

Adafruit Industries kindly provided a detailed video tutorial to create gummy candies that look just like 10 mm LEDs.

The legs are 3D printed in PLA (corn-based plastic) and they function like toothpicks, we inserted them while the gummies we cooling. It should be noted that gummies are a low-temperature candy, do not use 3D printed parts with any high-temp hard candies!

Check it out after the jump.

If you think you’re a likely candidate for this DIY candy salad adventure, you’re either a child, a chocoholic, or someone else with the incredible power to look at this much chocolate and not feel nauseous thinking about the cloyingly sweet taste.

Whatever the case, you’ll have to be prepared to turn your back on things like Runts, because they are strictly forbidden. Instead, according to the instructions, “you want at least one representative candy from the following categories: pretzel, peanut butter, peanut, caramel, nougat, cookie, crunch. You’re also going to need chocolate syrup, a big-ass bowl, a mixing spoon, a cutting board, and a knife.”

If you’re buckled up, click the link below and get ready for a wild ride on the anti-nutrition speedway.

If you’ve always wanted to know the atomic number of Dill Weed, or are simply a chemistry nerd who wants their kitchen to give off an amusing scientific vibe, we suggest this Periodic Table of Herbs and Spices spice rack. Unfortunately, it’s not commercially available, and will require some time and talent before it can become functional wall art.

I made my own tins, based on the instructions here. I had my design printed on vinyl at a local shop, and they applied it to sheet metal I bought from onlinemetals.com. I used a sheet of stainless steel with a sheet of cold-rolled steel behind it for magnetism, but you could probably just use the regular steel by itself with a bit of polish and anti-rust coating. I got the labels from LabelsByTheSheet.com and printed them at work. I made the frame with some moulding and spray paint from Home Depot, but you could also buy a frame from a craft store.

Check out the link below for a high res PDF download of the table itself.

Octopizza Pie

When it comes to pizza, it is usually picked up from a chain or hastily moved from the freezer to the oven when people don’t have time or energy for cooking. However, Instructables user “donedirtcheap” decided to turn the pizza canvas into a work of art, resulting in this Octopizza with pepperoni suckers. Thankfully, he has provided the details for making your own here, which will come in handy if you ever find yourself looking for a pizza project.

Check out a picture of the final product after the break.
