World of WarCrafts: Banner of brutality

Every Thursday, Shelbi Roach of The Bronze Kettle guides you in creating WoW-inspired crafts using real world mats with World of WarCrafts.

Show the world where your loyalties lie with this horde-riffic signage. The bold red backdrop is guaranteed to garner attention while the blood spatter technique would make even Thrall proud.

Here is what you will need:
  • Wooden Frame (I used a Make Me Frameous frame from Michaels)
  • Wooden Letters (I used Provo Craft Carved Letters from Michaels)
  • Acrylic Paint (deep red, black)
  • Fine Red Glitter
  • Krylon Crystal Clear Acrylic Spray
  • Paint Brush

World of WarCrafts: Light switch cover

Every Thursday, Shelbi Roach of The Bronze Kettle guides you in creating WoW-inspired crafts using real world mats with World of WarCrafts.

While it may be true that us geeks typically prefer the dark, it might be worth turning on the light just to show off one of these totally rad WoW-themed light switch covers. Take a screenshot of your character decked out in epics or your favorite NPC. You can also use a shot of your preferred locale, such as The Dark Portal, Zangarmarsh or Nagrand (as pictured).

Here is what you will need:
  • Light Switch Cover
  • Printed Image
  • Paper Cutter (or Scissors)
  • Clear Acrylic Spray
  • Mod Podge
  • Paintbrush
  • Xacto Knife
