Rare Bird Finds

I love you I know Blue Crane Teacup and Saucer Set

Vintage teacups painted with those favorite phrases would make and awesome wedding gift for the fan in your life. It would also make an awesome housewarming gift, or...pretty much an anytime gift. I'd add some fancy coffee or tea, or, if you are giving them to an actual scruffy nerf herder, maybe some booze...or dish soap. $60 at Geek Details. 

Hex Colour Leggings

Hello, leggings! I'm not really a leggings kinda girl, but I am really digging these Pantone leggings. Awesome! $75 AUD with free international shipping at Black Milk

Birds with Crown Necklace - Sale

We love our birds on Rare Bird Finds! And this is a great deal - a birdie pendant and bronze chain for only $5! Choose from 6 different bird designs. $5 at Marsbar

Petunias T-shirts

I don't want to say too much about this shirt, because if you get it, you probably want it. And if you don't get it...well...you have a lot to learn about life, the universe and...everything. Including petunias, whales and t-shirts. $19.95 for this style from iscahdesigns on zazzle.

Custom Video Game / DVD Covers

I stumbled across these video game covers and had to do a double take. What a way to class up your game and movie shelves! Done in the classic Penguin style, your silly little video games suddenly become rather high-brow. You'll have a good two or three minutes of fooling people into thinking you smarter than you look. Actually, I'd think you were pretty smart for these. See? You win. $6 for 3 custom covers.

Octopus Duvet Cover

Linens can be so...boring. And difficult. Especially if you have a partner that doesn't share the same frilly taste as you. Often all you can find are flowers or solids or, if you are really lucky, some generic pattern that is so inoffensive as to be offensive. But what if your bed could be covered by an octopus? Or, at least, your duvet cover could be. Pretty spiffy, eh? $300 for a queen cover at 2Modern.

DIY Glitter Shoes

The holiday season is coming up and what better way to bring in the cold months than with some sparkly shoes. What's even better? Making your own sparkly shoes! I stumbled upon this blog post that gives a nice diy tutorial on how to transform a pair of shoes into a glitterbomb with just glitter and Modge Podge (found at craft stores like Michael's). Read the tutorial on RookieMag.com

TMNT Shredder Krang Painted Flower Pot Set of 2

This place could do with a little sprucing up. Maybe some plants? Maybe some plants in some cool pots? Maybe some meat-eating plants in some...ok, let's stick with plants in cool pots. Nothing girly though. $24.00 for this set of two at Ginger Pots.

Release the Kraken Boxer Briefs

Take these boxer briefs how you will. We all know that any boy would be flattered by them...I think. And we all know that even if we say it isn't funny, it is. We also know it would be just as funny if the image was printed on the rear. $16.99 at Jinx.

Hand Painted Xbox Bra

Ok, I guess I'm on some weird clothing kick the past few posts but how can I resist.   Sometimes it's hard going into those extremely sexy lingerie stores, everything looks painful.  But how about something sexy, where your guy can push all the right buttons?   Then try out this hand painted Xbox controller bra!  There are many many styles to choose from if the video game controller is too much for you.  $40 at Sceene Shoes.

Wolverine - I Don't Kill Easy, Bub

There are easily a dozen posters I like in this shop. I am choosing this particular Wolverine poster to show you with many urges to please go look at the others. This one is awesome, but so are...all of them. I chose this one though because I know you love Wolverine. $15 for an 11x17 print seems very reasonable to me. You can find them at Big Bad Robot.

Star Wars Glowing Lightsaber Ice Pop Maker

YAY! You can now make your own lightsaber ice popsicles! The hilts look real and they even light up with LED lights. You get two Luke and two Darth hilts.  So fun!  $34.99 at Think Geek

Fabric Acorn Lavender Sachets

So adorable! These aromatic lavender sachets are made with real acorn caps, and are the size of real acorns. Totally cute and totally perfect this time of year. The shop also carries acorn sachets with different fabric patterns. In fact, check out the entire shop for all its cute handmade woodland goodies. $10 for 10 at Thimblewoods

Star Wars Death Star Tea Infuser

So, you don't like Earl Gray, hot? Maybe you prefer a different sort of tea experience. Perhaps you find the lack of flavor from a teabag distubing. You could infuse your own tea with this moon...I mean space station. Great detail on a great collectible for a little bit of refinement for just $19.99 at Think Geek.

Whales A3 Canvas Poster

I've had this lovely poster on my list of things to...post...for a little while. And this week I have seen it pop up all over the blogosphere, so I am posting it now both to get in on the action, and allow you to consider gettiing in on the action before it disappears, or becomes too trendy or...whatever. Because it is just gorgeous. Seven beautiful whales printed on cotton canvas for $45.00 at the ARMINHO.

Gummy Bear 3D Anatomy Puzzle

You may be familiar with Jason Freeny's art. Maybe you've seen his slightly upsetting anatomy drawings of beloved figures. Well now you can own a puzzle based on his Gummy Bear anatomy. I find it alternately terrifying and hilarious. Make of that what you will. But I am pretty sure I won't ever eat a Gummy Bear again. $41.99 at Perpetual Kid.

Ugly Christmas Sweater

It's only November 1st, but it's time to start thinking about Christmas!  Not just the shopping, but what you are going to wear to the office Christmas party.   Look no more...although it was hard to pick just one to show you.   Get yourself this Ugly Christmas Sweater and no one will ever forget it.   This one has everything but the kitchen sink on it!  This one is $33 at Keriblue4.
