Neatorama to make your home way more fun-orama
It started with this tentacle doorstop. It made the rounds on the interwebs a little while ago and of COURSE I flagged it for my Homies. But then I decided to explore what ELSE Neatorama had to offer for the Home. And I was pleasantly surprised.

Make your own Sonic Screwdriver
Homies, this twelve-year-old is about to school you on how to build your own Sonic Screwdriver. I KNOW, I KNOW: I was super excited when I found out this video existed, too.
Great idea of the day: Back-to-school preparedness kit
It’s time to go back to school whether you scholarly folk like it or not. Do you know someone who’s in the “like it not” category?

So, when I saw a terrarium a few weeks ago, it hit me: Mini terrariums personalized for each figure would be a perfect and stylish way to show ’em off. Intrigued? Here’s how you make an action figure terrarium…
An adorkable, omnom-y kitchen with “spice invaders” and Sonic the hedgehog

Use lab-grade test tubes as your spice rack
Apparently this is what your spice rack looks like when you’re a scientist who loves to cook — test tubes and a lab grade test tube spice rack!
Add a pixelated fire to your non-working fireplace
Do you have a fireplace that doesn’t work? One of those frustrating sealed up hearths? Etsy seller JamesBit makes pixelated fire canvases made-to-order!
Zombie cross stitch kits!
And you thought cross stitch was for little old ladies, stitching BORING samplers and twee “kiss the cook” and “bless this house” patterns. Well, you were wrong. It’s called the Zombie cross-stitch kit, and Mich is showing you how it’s done.
