Or should I say… Game of FOAMS?!

When playing the game of foams, you win or you die. Make sure to smell your best no matter where your loyalties lie.

STARK
Winter is coming… be the one true clean in the north by siding with the Starks.

Sigil: Grey wolf on winter white
Scent: Betrayal. A crisp combination of pine, cedar, and eucalyptus with just a hint of campfire to capture the essence of the wintry north.

or…

LANNISTER
Hear me roar and always pay your debts to cleanliness.

Sigil: Golden lion on crimson
Scent: Pride. A sweet, earthy blend of patchouli, plumeria, and orange; rich and manipulative.

Not a licensed or endorsed product. Fan interpretation handcarved with love. Both bars are 5.5 oz of 100% all natural and vegan friendly soap.

Clean of Kong: A Fistful of Bubbles GEEKSOAP Geek Soap

Posted in Showcase, Soap , on January 24, 2011

Introducing a new GEEKSOAP original! Clean of Kong: A Fistful of Bubbles!

Donkey Kong is one of the legendary classics in the video game world. Forget Billy Mitchell or Steve Wiebe… now YOU can beat the record high score for cleanliness and go down in history forever as the Clean of Kong!

This fabulous soap is an iconic homage to an arcade classic, based on the token barrels found throughout the entire game series. It was custom designed and created by me, so you can be sure your soap is lovingly handmade and one-of-a-kind!

These unique barrel shaped soaps stand approximately 2.75″ tall and are nearly 3″ across at their widest point, weighing in at a whopping 7 oz each! They smell of plump banana bunches with a hint of sweet coconut, and you’ll love that every bar is made from 100% all natural ingredients. As always, GEEKSOAP bars are also vegan friendly!

Baththulhu Cthulhu Bath Mitt

Posted in Crochet, Showcase , on July 5, 2010

Brace yourself for something beyond epic… introducing Baththulhu™ the Cthulhu Bath Mitt!

Live on the edge and shower with danger! While those tentacles may wish to suck your soul into Cthulhu’s gaping maw, they are made from completely harmless cotton. (Which may explain the look on Baththulhu’s face.) So instead of doing evil, those tentacles make for an excellent scrubby surface for soapy lather. Yes!

Baththulhu is a hand crocheted bath mitt pattern that I wrote; the first Cthulhu bath mitt in existence! I personally hand crochet each and every bath mitt for my customers from the softest 100% cotton I can find for a uniquely geek bathing experience. For a Cthulhu Clean you can’t get anywhere else, be sure to pair your mitt with the original Cthulhu soap! (#Fact, being Cthulhu Clean wards off horrific nightmares. Yup.)

The Baththulhu bath mitt comes in two mighty sizes and is crafted for right-handed souls by default, but never fear… a lefty-friendly version is available, too! Medium size fits most women perfectly, while Large is more suited for men and/or those with larger hands.

Use: Enjoy with suds in the bath or shower. When finished, rinse thoroughly and lay flat to dry. Made from 100% cotton.

Disclaimer: Not responsible for the loss of your brain should you get Baththulhu too close to your head. Available for purchase at geeksoap.net

Baththulhu is the fourth original Cthulhu-themed design I’ve created. Be sure to check out my Cthulhu toqueSock-Thulhu™ sock plush, and Cthulhu GEEKSOAP!

Are you thinking what I’m thinking? YES – I will be creating a matching set of a modified version of these as Cthulhu mittens perfect for winter wear this fall, so stay tuned and keep an eye on The Pink Toque shop!

Soapstone GEEKSOAP Geek Soap

Posted in Showcase, Soap , on July 2, 2010

There’s no place like home… and now you can bubble and hearth your way out of dirty, sticky situations with my latest GEEKSOAP creation: the Soapstone!

This fantastic handcarved soap is lovingly handmade one-at-a-time from all natural ingredients enriched with aloe and vitamin E. No two Soapstones are ever exactly alike, though all are intentionally designed to look realistically like roughly carved stone.

Each Soapstone bar emits a fresh & tropical coconut lime verbena fragrance that’ll bring the lush, clear water beaches of Stranglethorn Vale right to your shower, without the hassle of pesky jungle trolls of course.

Soapstones weigh approximately 5oz; they’re wrapped to seal in freshness and allow you to keep them on display until you’re ready to use them. And as always, GEEKSOAP is vegan friendly!

Disclaimer: Not responsible for your impending addiction to showering instead of raiding. (Sorry, guildies.) Once you smell the intoxicating awesome of using my Soapstone soap, you won’t be able to put it down, either.

Unlike the rest of the GEEKSOAP line, the concept of this soap design is not new. Special thanks to ManaPrincess/Ladykildare and Amethyst Soap for their inspiration & support as I set about to handcarve my own interpretation of what I thought a hunk of magical stone would look and smell like in their absence. This means I’m not competing with their sales nor trying to claim credit for their fantastic idea. :) Margaret of Amethyst Soap has been a dream to work with on creating my own unique version, and you should check out her amazing goodies on Etsy.

Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP Geek Soap

Posted in Showcase, Soap , on April 16, 2010

Relive your favorite classic gaming adventures in the tub with my Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP! This series of gaming cartridge soap packs 8-bit, 16-bit, or 64-bit power in every shower! Its natural companion is the Handheld Game Cartridge Guest Soap… the mini 8-Bit version that’s perfect for travel or your guest bathroom sink.

NEW in the series: Retro 2600 Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP bars… a parody replica rom cartridge of our favorite 1977 console.

NEWER in the series: Classic SG 16-Bit Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP bars. The 16-bit equivalent from that other console.

Bonus: you won’t need to blow on these cartridges to get them to work.

GEEKSOAP Game Cartridge bars are handmade one-at-a-time from all natural ingredients enriched with aloe and vitamin E. The grey bars are generously scented with an incredibly refreshing lime mint fragrance while the black bars are scented with a sultry unisex black amber musk fragrance, and all bars come shrink-wrapped to seal in freshness and allow you to keep the soap on display until you’re ready to use it. GEEKSOAP is vegan friendly!

The molds were custom designed and created by me so you can be sure that your soap is lovingly handmade and 100% one-of-a-kind. You won’t find soap like it anywhere else!

The 64-Bit Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP bars weigh a touch over 5 ounces and have the dimensions of 4″x3″x1.1″.

The 8-Bit Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP bars weigh a little over 9 ounces (That’s nearly double all of my other GEEKSOAP bars!) with the dimensions of 4.25″x5.5″x0.75″. These are HUGE!

The 16-Bit Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP bars weigh around 8 ounces (That’s pretty darn big!) with the dimensions of 5.25″x3.5″x0.75″. That’s like 2 of my D20 Soap on a Rope bars!

The Handheld Game Cartridge Guest Soap bars weigh approximately 1.5 ounces and have the dimensions of 2.25″x2.5″x0.75″.

The Retro 2600 Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP bars weigh around 5 ounces with the dimensions of 4″x3.25″x0.75″.

The SG 16-Bit Game Cartridge GEEKSOAP bars weigh approximately 5 ounces with the dimensions of 4.25″x3.25″x0.75″.

These bars are 100% solid soap through and through, which means the soap versions weigh more than the real thing… but good luck telling the difference between the soap and the real cartridges!

D20 Soap On A Rope GEEKSOAP Geek Soap

Posted in Showcase, Soap , on March 29, 2010

As seen on CRAFTzine, GEEKOLOGIE, and Wizards of the Coast (THE DnD Website!) just to name a few… introducting D20 dice soap… ON A ROPE?! *head explodes* Yes, this is full of awesome and win you can’t get anywhere else.

My D20 Soap On A Rope always scores a critical hit against bad body odor. Because even D&D players need to pull themselves away from the game every once in awhile to bathe…

D20 GEEKSOAP On A Rope has the giant dimensions of 2.5″ x 2.5″ and weighs 4oz. (This ain’t no tiny dice soap!) This large, one-of-a-kind solid soap features 20 sides of cleanliness with a sturdy hand-crocheted cotton rope that makes it convenient to hang in your dungeon… erm, I mean shower!

GEEKSOAP is handmade from natural, pure vegetable glycerin and moisturizers, enriched with aloe and vitamin E. Soaps are lightly scented with an invigorating smell guaranteed to woo the opposite sex, but can be made fragrance free. Your D20 GEEKSOAP On A Rope comes shrink-wrapped to seal in freshness and allow you to hang the soap on display until you’re ready to use it. GEEKSOAP is vegan friendly!

The mold was custom designed and created by me so you can be sure that your soap is lovingly handmade and 100% original. You won’t find soap like it anywhere else!

The AWESOME dice bag you see in the photos are handmade by @GeekyLyndsay over at http://dragonchow.etsy.com – she makes the most perfect flat-bottom drawstring dice bags in a variety of sizes to suit your personality and all of your dice sets. Be sure to stop by and show her some love and grab a bag or two while you’re there. Tell her GEEKSOAP sent you!

Mustache GEEKSOAP Geek Soap

Posted in Showcase, Soap , on March 28, 2010

You have to admit, mustaches are the epitome of geek cool. Ok maybe not, but they are pretty darn awesome. It doesn’t get much cooler than your soap sporting a ‘stache, though.

GEEKSOAP is handmade from natural, pure vegetable glycerin and moisturizers, enriched with aloe and vitamin E. Soaps are lightly scented with a clean, invigorating smell and come shrink-wrapped to seal in freshness and allow you to keep the soap on display until you’re ready to use it.

Size: 5 – 6.5oz bar depending on shape, with varying dimensions of at least 3″x3″x1.25″

Crochet Cthulhu Toque

Posted in Hats, Showcase , on February 20, 2010

This is a 100% original crochet toque (hat) of the mighty Cthulhu! The hat design and pattern were originally designed and made by Lesley A. Karpiuk… accept no cheap imitations or look-a-likes by others that have started cropping up! This is THE original of its kind.

Made from soft worsted weight yarn, this toque will surely make you the talk of the town during your next outing. This item is handmade and features Cthulhu tentacles, wings, and sewn on buttons for eyes. Due to the button eyes, this product is not recommended for children. The baby version features sewn-on felt eyes instead of buttons or safety eyes.

Note: Wearing a Cthulhu on your head is indicative of a coolness that cannot be surpassed. You know you want one. Pattern copyright to Lesley Karpiuk of the Pink Toque Craft Blog. Available for purchase in The Pink Toque shop.


Cousteau Cowl

Posted in Knit, Showcase , on February 20, 2010

This is a knitted cowl pattern that I created in December 2009. The cowl was created to match the Cousteau Hat that I knit for my husband at Christmas, so my cowl pattern was inspired by the Cousteau Hat pattern by Typy on Ravelry.

The pattern is available for free on Ravelry.
