This Friday, December 10th, is
Wear & Share Star Wars day! As you guys probably already know, this is in honor of
Star Wars Katie and her über cool water bottle. So, break out your Star Wars t-shirts, backpacks, earrings, or what-have-you, and rock 'em with pride this Friday! Also don't forget to donate a Star Wars toys (or other geeky toy, if you'd prefer) to your local shelter, hospital, or Toys For Tots charity.
And to get you in the Star Wars mood, here's some stuff to make you grin.
First, some rockin' art sent in by Daya:
Yep. This rocks.
This was a Star Wars Fan Club exclusive by Hugh Fleming all the way back in 1998. Happily, you can still snag the poster for less than six bucks
on Amazon
, though, and I even spotted it on a few t-shirts on
Ebay. So... I think I'm gonna have to buy one of those.
Another oldie but goodie: Steampunk R2D2

Ah, but it gets even better: have you seen the
updated version?
[drool] LOVE the improvements on R2's noggin'!
If you haven't seen the adorable Alphabet Star Wars prints by new parents Emma and Brandon Peat already this week, I'll just assume you've been living off grid in the wild somewhere. Still, for you campers, here 'tis:
Vader is my favorite. :)

Oh, and here's a time-sensitive deal: the Peats are offering a printed book of their entire alphabet set for $15
here - but you have to order it by midnight,
tonight! So, you know, hurry up.
While I was researching the links for that set, I stumbled across another adorable Star Wars alphabet - this one done Chibi style:
D'awwww. See the whole set
here on artist Joe Wight's DeviantArt gallery.
And finally, I have a little something to give away: a Star Wars Christmas t-shirt!
The give-away has ended. Winner announced below!
This is the Teefury design "Hothmas." I bought it last year, but it didn't fit. So, yes, you *could* see this as me just giving away my clothing cast-offs. Or you could see it as a generous act from a benevolent blogger just looking to make your Star Wars Christmas a little more Hothy. [grin]
The shirt is a girl's XL, but I discovered that Teefury shirts not only run small, they're also long and skinny (as you can see on the model, the printed design falls below the waist). So, if you're long and skinny and wear about a juniors' size L, this is the shirt for you! If you want it, leave a comment on this post by midnight tonight. I'll announce the winner here and on FB then, so be sure to check back.
Happy commenting, and MTFBWY!
UPDATE: And the winner is....Brilliantpants!! (I trust there's only *one* commenter out there with that name?) Congrats, and please e-mail me your mailing address, Brill.
