The coolest Whovian bathroom decor in all of time and space
The return of Doctor Who (this past weekend) is basically a holiday ’round these parts. Last time when I celebrated the season premier of Doctor Who, I rounded up all my favorite Whovian home goods. This time, in true Megan style, I’mma do a Doctor Who bathroom roundup!
Accio awesome DIY Harry Potter wand display
A while back, I discovered Harter’s Wands on Etsy. You send them the screenshot of your wand from Pottermore, and they will make one to the exact specifications. Only, what do you do with a wand once you have it? You make a wand display plaque, of course!
Star War-termelons: a refreshingly nerdy summer treat
The Empire has featured some awesome ideas for serving watermelon in the summertime. And now there are Star War-termelons!
These are the super-subtle Star Wars bathroom items you’ve been looking for
Maybe you’re a huge Star Wars fan, but your live-in partner doesn’t agree with using your childhood Star Wars sheets in your bedroom. Or perhaps you’ve held off on your Death Star-inspired living room decor, since you often host business meetings at home. This, Homies, is why I love getting weird in the bathroom. (No, not like that… well, maybe.) THIS is the super-subtle Star Wars bathroom you’ve been looking for…
Make your own Mandrake
My fiancé and I finished making our very own Mandrake to use as a centerpiece. I’m pretty stoked on how he turned out, and I thought I’d share with you how we did it.
What are your favorite alternative lifestyle podcasts?
Hey! I am super into podcasts these days, but it is hard to find podcasts about alternative lifestyles and such. Do you guys have recommendations for podcasts about various lifestyles, subcultures, scenes, interests etc?
The most romantic Lord of the Rings tour of New Zealand you’ll see today
We decided to go to New Zealand, partially as this was Matt’s first trip overseas (and New Zealand is one of Australia’s closest neighbours), partially due to The Lord of the Rings. And finally we chose New Zealand because we wanted to try to keep the costs down, while having as much luxury as we could afford.
Where do I start? An anime guide for newbies
I don’t remember why I decided to spend a few hours one night watching English-dubbed Sailor Moon episodes from the ’90s. I do know that magical blonde high-schooler lured me into a story-telling art form that I have since fallen deeply in love with. The story arcs, the relationships, the character development, the magic, the grit, the color, the fan art… anime lights my story-loving/comic-nut fire.
So while I’m still fairly new to anime and am definitely not an expert, I’m trying to get more well-rounded in my knowledge. Feel free to follow my breadcrumb trail, Offbeat Homies, and lose yourself to this world forever.
