Denim Shoes: Ferociously Funky Sandals Made From Vintage Jeans
I remember about six months ago, Richard wrote an article about some Jeans Boots. They were boots (kinda like Cowboy boots) made out of an old pair of jeans. It caused quite a stir, and people either seemed to think they were ultimately geeky or a horrible fashion mistake. Today I'm excited to follo ...
Leather USB Bracelet: Take Your Special Memories With You
The trend over the past few years has definitely been to carry our data with us in the form of wearable USB devices. We've written about a lot of them, and my favorite has always been the R2-D2 Flash Drive Cufflinks. Too bad I'm not a guy or I'd be all over those. There has been a lot of USB jewelry ...
Minimalist Art: The Walking Dead Gets The Minimalist Treatment
I love The Walking Dead. Tuning in to watch zombies get dispatched in multiple ways by a group of mismatched people all trying to survive is my kind of night in. For the most part, I like the realistic portrayal and reaction to a seriously extreme situation. Well, for the most part it's realistic. H ...
Etch-A-Sketch Belt Buckle Provides A Different Kind Of Fun
My theory is - Why carry something around in your hands if you can attach it to your body in another way? It makes sense to me. This Etch-A-Sketch belt buckle was created with that in mind, and I could totally get into this. My only question is, if your friend wants to play with it, doesn't that mea ...
Chalkboard Pad: A Nostalgic Design Inspired By The New iPad
I remember back when Apple announced that their next big product launch was going to be called the "iPad." Immediately everyone started making fun of that name, and all kinds of product spoofs immediately hit the Internet. We all giggled and wondered why Apple picked such a lame name. Now, a few yea ...

Etsy’s Growth May Surprise You: The Facts & Stats [Infographic]
I love it when the underdog surprises everyone and comes up from behind for a victory. Whether it's a person we know, a superhero from a movie, or even a website, it's always inspiring and motivating to see that when it happens. It teaches us a valuable lesson about underestimating the little guys. ...
Hunger Games Inspired Jewelry
The "movie of the year" opens in theatres this Friday. While I haven't actually read The Hunger Games, I've certainly heard enough about the series to want to see the movie. I know that it has something to do with a competition in post-apocalyptic earth where the last person standing wins.
It rem ...
Rad Steampunk Remote Controlled LED Light Up Club Shoes
We've written about shoes with LEDs several times over the past few years. Apparently designers really like to put those little lights on shoes. In my opinion, most of the shoes that we've seen with them in the past have been, well, ugly. They are usually boring sneakers lined with LEDs or something ...
Humanoid Decor: Hand Painted Robot Light Switch Covers
If you have a room in your home that needs a little jazzing up, sometimes it only takes a few minor changes to give it a whole new look. For me, that room is the bathroom. I like my bathroom to look a certain way, and I get bored with it easily. It's nothing for me to zip over to the hardware store, ...
Pokeball Headphones: The Retro Geek Way To Rock Out
Since we love music and gaming, it's really no surprise that we've written about a lot of different kinds of headphones on Bit Rebels over the years. My favorite ones, until today, are the Princess Leia Hair Headphone Covers that we featured about a month ago. They are guaranteed to make every Star ...
Geek Design: Starship Enterprise Inspired Coffee Table
As you probably know, we feature a lot about Star Wars and Star Trek on Bit Rebels. Even though we've mentioned before that it seems like there are more creative Star Wars designs than Star Trek designs, that is not necessarily true when talking about furniture, or at least that's what I've noticed. ...
Creative Valentine’s Day Conversation Heart Hats
Believe it or not, Valentine's Day will be here before we know it. One of my favorite parts of that holiday is getting conversation hearts. I don't usually eat them; I just like getting them. They've been around since I was a little girl, and there is just something about them that's nostalgic and f ...
I’m A Lumberjack: A Pillow That’s Really Ok
You know you’re ok. Your friends know you’re ok. But does the world know? Shout it to the world, baby. You’re a lumberjack and you’re ok, whether or not you like to press wild flowers.
As is the wont of British folk, with their pantomimes and long Shakespearean history of theatrical cross-dressin ...
Geeky Babies: Batman & Robin Crocheted Baby Costumes
There are lots of things new parents can do to be sure their newborn baby gets off on the right track in life. They can make sure their baby eats right, gets plenty of love, and has a comfortable place to sleep. Another thing new parents can do is be sure their baby gets a head start on being a geek ...
This Batman Ceiling Fan Turns Your Home Into A Batcave
This is without a doubt the coolest ceiling fan mod I've ever seen. It's also the only ceiling fan mod I've ever seen, but that's beside the point. If I could drive somewhere and buy these Batman fan blades today, I would. After all, everyone knows it's very important to keep the temperature in the ...
