The wine tentacle

April 26, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is a wine stopper. A very different sort of wine stopper – like something out of H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu mythos or, dare I say it, certain anime films. The wine tentacle is resin-cast on a stainless steel stopper with a rubber lip. Fancy it? It’s one of the new arrivals at the indie craft […]

Your very own Ghost in the Shell body pillow

April 11, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Body pillows are not just popular among Japanese otaku. In Korea a man married his Fate Testorossa body pillow, a character from the anime Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha. Now body pillows are coming to America. If you fancy yourself Motoko Kussangi from Ghost in the Shell as a body pillow then Entertainment Earth will be […]

Bookends for geeks and gamers

April 8, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Etsy retailer Knob Creek Metal Arts may have a strange name but their collection of metal bookends are a visual treat. The great thing about clever bookends is that they turn the awkward collection of books on the shelf into a talking point. Geeky bookends transform a pile of books from clutter to art.

Geek style: Use an evidence bag as kitchen accessory

March 29, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Here’s a brave and geeky thing to do – get rid of your traditional block of kitchen knives. Why? They’re a bit dull. You could go geek. You could replace that blog of wood for something a bit more interesting. Channel your inner Dexter or purge your CSI addiction by pre-ordering the “evidence knife set […]

Zombie Mount Rushmore

March 26, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I live in a very small flat. There’s no space. I’m always in search of something I can stick to the naked wall and make more space. Zombies. That’s a start. Zombies and American history combine to suggest a possible solution for me. With this Zombie Mount Rushmore I’ve a handy and undead place to […]

A monstrous rug

March 12, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Surprisingly, this is at least the third monster rug post on Geek Native. Who knew that household fashion was so close to geek culture? This, slightly cute, monster rug comes via Longo Land and will set you back a lot less than $3,000. In fact, it’s $500 less than $3,000. How’s that for a good […]

Nitroglycerin Hand Sanitizer

February 6, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Now and then, while out checking the web for geeky goodness, this blogger comes across an item that would make for a wonderful LARP prop. This Nitroglycerin Hand Sanitizer goes beyond LARP – not only could you use this during a gaming night, I can see this being a great conversation starter at a convention. […]
