We’ve been hiding out on Ahch-To and have fallen in love with the Porgs. Since we feel the need to carry them everywhere, we made cross-body pouches out of felt. Read on if you already need more Porgs in your life and can’t wait until December (or even Force Friday II for that matter). We […]

How to make Star Wars X-Wing crayon party favors
One of our favorite little Jedis celebrated his fifth birthday recently and we wanted to make something fun for his goodie bags. We found this post about making recycled crayons into X-Wing shapes and decided to give it a go. Our crayons are made with solid primary colors for the preschool set, but you could […]
Yummy Yoda meringue cookies
Write this post in Yoda-speak we will not. At least we’ll try. Oh wait, there is no try. Whew, now that the Yoda jokes are out of the way, let’s talk about meringues. They are an incredibly simple and underrated cookie. We found a great recipe for double vanilla meringues here, but you can use your favorite […]
Princess Leia Buns for Beanie Boos
Everyone in our house is excited about tomorrow being May the fourth, even the Beanie Boos! This bunny wanted to try out Princess Leia buns and we couldn’t say no. You will definitely need a glue gun for this one – the pipe cleaners won’t stay curled for long enough for regular glue to set. […]
Matching Star Wars outfit for girls and American Girl dolls
This is definitely the droid fabric you’re looking for. We found it at our local Jo-Ann Fabrics and immediately had to jump in line to buy enough for our little Jedis and their American Girl dolls. We combined two of our favorite quick sewing projects to create these outfits. You will need about a […]
Simple BB-8 Clay Charm Video Tutorial
Yes, it’s another BB-8 project. We just love the simplicity of this droid’s shape and couldn’t resist making one out of polymer clay. All you need are three colors of clay and some simple jewelry supplies. Both are readily available at craft stores (such as Michaels) or on Amazon. This time, we’ve created the tutorial […]
Just Ewok It (or How to Make Anything Into an Ewok)
Last week Disney released the new Star Wars Tsum Tsums. They are predictably adorable and we immediately ran out to pick up a couple. When we hit our local store around mid-day, they still had tons of everything except Ewoks. We were lucky enough to grab two of the last four and then started thinking […]
BB-8 Star Wars Valentine Card Tutorial
BB-8 + Galactic Glitter = love 4 ever! It’s already mid-February and we’re finally busting out the scissors. With very few materials and a glue stick, you can have these cute valentines ready for your favorite Wookie. To get started, we gathered some pre-made cards with envelopes, orange and grey paper, and black brads from […]
American Girl Doll BB-8 costume tutorial
Guess what. Dolls love Star Wars too! At least that’s what we’ve been told. Of course they love wearing matching outfits, but they also like having complimentary costumes when it’s this obvious (here is our Easy 30-minute Rey costume tutorial). The only thing cuter than BB-8 is a doll or stuffed animal dressed as BB-8. […]
Easy 30 minute Rey costume tutorial
I have to admit something. We have seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens four times. That’s not the confession. The confession is that by the second time, I found myself getting distracted during the movie thinking about how to make a Rey costume. I took mental inventory of what we had at home and what […]
