So, as you may have heard, we’re holding a craft contest. You don’t have to be an expert crafter or even to have experienced the joy of finding glitter in places where glitter should never be to participate. Really!
We’ve featured a whole lot of crafts over the years; Star Wars fandom is rife with the things. So what’s your personal favorite Star Wars craft?
And no, it DOESN’T have to be something you’ve made yourself! Or even something Bonnie made. (Don’t hurt us, Bonnie.)
There’s only one rule: Your choice must be analog. No design, no photo-manips, no computers. It must have been made by human hands at some point! Metal, food and costumes do count, yarn and glitter are optional. Include a link if you can. (Basic HTML works just fine in our comments.)
I made a famous craft as a craft, in about 20-30 minutes… but i think it was more fun to watch it used in a game of catch the dangling Skywalker.
What immediately comes to mind is Tickle Me Emperor, which Steve Sansweet kindly posted on his Facebook page:

Before we left for Celebration IV, my wife took one of our Vintage SW sheets and designed a custom pocketbook, complete with lining and an inner pocket for her phone. Here are pics of the front & back:

I love our Boyz and their Project Runway outfits!

I wish I had a picture of it, but I made a Star Wars sombrero for Cinco de Mayo one year- with little ewoks wearing sombreros and lightsabers on top.
