Posted byI’m sure I’m not the only one here who had a thing for dinosaurs as a kid. My favorites were the plesiosaur and the duckbill.
This latent dino-love is, I’m sure, the reason I’m drawn to every single dinocraft project I find. They all call to me.
I dig other plastic animals, too — but couldn’t this rack go for less ram, more prehistoric carnviore?
Most intimidating plate ever.
Oh yeah! They do make great planters.

Nice. I’m liking this new “what can I stick to a lamp base” trend. I see there’s another one in the background, too. I like how these lamp bases go abstract from a distance.
You can also learn how to turn dinosaurs into bookends with cement!
Fun for Your Life Wall Decor in Dino
Ok, am I the only GLEE-atch who’s all, PROMOSAURUS!!?
I was super disappointed that they didn’t bust out Walk the Dinosaur.
I think it was playing in the background briefly.
I’m pretty sure my two year daughter is going to be dissappointed when her school doesn’t have a dinosaur prom fifteen years from now. She jumped up and was dancing with the dinos during that episode!
Thus far her favorite things in the world are dinosaurs, pirates, dragons, hockey, and the Muppets. I am beyond pleased with her taste.
FUCK YEAH DINOSAURS.
I always forget that plastic toys can be spray painted and incorporated into grown-up decor.
I was super surprised…why didnt I think of this?
May I humbly submit our wedding cake toppers?

My husband’s a dino nut- he’s got a stegosaurus and an ankylosaurus tattooed on his abs. (I also bought him dinosaur-bone cufflinks for the occasion- http://ruffledmedia.ruffled.netdna-cdn.com/vintage-wedding-blog/alex-travis/DSC_3186.jpg?b03aa7 )
LOVE the cake toppers, and those cufflinks are really, really cool. AWESOME!
I want all of these people to be my Internet-friends. They all win.
That last one gives me awesome ideas for similarly themed giraffe and ostrich decor.
My husband wants a couple of the schleich dinosaurs for our mantle. I am so down with that! Now to rustle up $80 odd bucks (aus) for each… Yeh, I think that this will be a birthday present.
Fans of pre-historic fauna should check out this song “Dinosaurs” by a band I know called Biscuithead and the Biscuit Badgers. The lyrics include the line “Someone still loves you dinosaurs, and it’s us”

Boyfriend is overseas on business trip. Seriously considering stealthily dinosaurifying the lamp in his study..
We had dinosaur pie toppers for our wedding pie. Yeah, we’re awesome 😉
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! These are all AMAZING ideas. Amazing. This also gives me some great ideas for all the tiny plastic zoo animals that I bought for our wedding.
I just wish I didn’t anthropomorphize inanimate objects so much. It would be awfully hard for me to cut one in half. Silly, I know.
So jealous that I didn’t think of these ideas first! …steal 🙂
Whoo! 🙂 Our table decorations for our wedding are going to be inspired by these fabulously chic gold spray painted dinosaurs:

(Though we’ll also have other gold spray painted animals)
We’ll be keeping our favorites for souvenirs/house decorations.
Sooo… Remember this article? We made a stegoplodocus constellation light and its used during the day for le bebe to gaze at during nappy changes. And its staying in our room when she moves out!

I know it’s not home decor, but it is a grown-up dinosaur item that I recently bought and am kind of excited to start using: https://www.bradfordexchangechecks.com/products/1800673001-.html?BECT_CODE=15346XTV&cm_ven=GPS&cm_cat=Google%7CProductAds&cm_pla=Search%7CProduct%20Ads&cm_ite=1800673001&utm_source=GPS&utm_medium=Google%7CProductAds&utm_campaign=Search%7CProduct%20Ads&utm_term=1800673001 Yup, I can pay bills with a t-rex check…i’m tempted to become one of those old people who slows down the checkout line by writing a check instead of using a debit card.
Hmmm. Dinosaurs. You could glue little ones by their feet meandering up the wall and onto the ceiling (The ceiling ones would probably need tacks through their feet, but think of it as shoeing them.) Then you could gradually build an upside down World That Time Forgot on the ceiling, adding dinosaurs, plastic palm trees, sponge rocks, etc., by degrees as you obtain them, especially over the couch where you can lie there and gaze up at them after a long day, to put everything in perspective.
Such beautiful timing! I am about to move in with my dino-obsessed partner – we were gutted that the house we’ve been offered, awesome as it is, has glass shower doors and thus no scope for a dinosaur shower curtain. Solution? These: https://www.etsy.com/nz/listing/235673924/two-black-6-inch-dinosaur-footprint?ref=fp_item&aref=79335653998
Anyway, thank you for keeping us in joint craft projects for the next year or so! Dinosaurification of new pad – COMMENCE!
