GeekyU and Me
One of my favorite aisles to walk down at comic conventions is the “craft” aisle. You know, the aisle that includes handmade hoodies, cards, art, and those plushies that are just too cute to pass up. Every year there seems to be more and more and this year GeekyU really caught my eye at the Big Wow Comic Fest! From afar, their stuff looks very eye catching – screen printed skirts (such as this Stormtrooper one that I’m wearing), Zelda tops, Doctor Who tees, and a few Star Wars inspired pieces. But then as I looked at their Zelda backpacks and ewok purses, it was hard not to notice the incredible details that went into every piece. Sure, every piece is handmade extremely well, but the fabric choices and textures that the designers chose was what really impressed me (check out this amazing Harley Quinn dress). Each piece is so unique and so incredible that you really have to see for yourself. Check out their Etsy store and follow them on Facebook – you won’t be disappointed!
