Extreme Crumb-finding

While finding sources for a post on Extreme Knitting (much like Knitting Crumbs a couple days ago), Inkblot discovered an exciting new/old blog. The site is well-established (been at their new website for almost a year but has had a blog for several years) but Inkblot has never seen it before. How exciting! The site is called Extreme Craft. And, of course, they showcase crafts and crafters who are doing new and exciting, and incredibly offbeat and wild things. Their latest post discusses a website (tamponcraft), focusing on the Pan Pipes made from tampons that actually play IN TUNE!! Looking at a few of the more recent posts, Inkblot noticed that Garth (the blog's brains) posted about the fabulousness that is the new Simpsons movie website. Inkblot discovered that site a few days ago, and hadn't had a chance to post about it. I'll tell you, it offers a host of fun time-wasting activities, including the freaking amazing character creator. You can go in this character creator thingy and practically draw your own Simpsons character without having to do any drawing! You just choose the sex, coloring, hair, mouth, nose, eyebrows, clothing, etc. Put it altogether and then save it to your computer or link to it from your blog/site, whatever. So adorable. Anyway, back to Extreme Craft... Garth's older posts seem to be a tad more on the chic craft side, though they are still nice and wild. Have fun perusing! Much love,
Inkblot
