World of WarCrafts: BlizzCon photo frame
Every Thursday, Shelbi Roach of The Bronze Kettle guides you in creating WoW-inspired crafts using real world mats with World of WarCrafts.This year I was fortunate enough to attend BlizzCon, and while my experience ranked right up there with getting a Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas, there was one thing missing. A picture frame.
How Blizzard forgot to include such a simple product in their stores, made to protect our memories of such a grand event, escapes me. However, this oversight has allowed me to craft a frame reminiscent of the icy chill soon to takeover what's left of our social lives, Wrath of the Lich King.
Here is what you will need:
- Unfinished Photo Frame
- Balsa Wood Sticks
- Wood Saw
- Spray Paint (you may have some leftover from crafting the Cataclysm's Edge)
- Blue Glitter Flakes
- Photo Paper
- Overlaminate Sheet
- Mod Podge
World of WarCrafts: Raid art
With Wrath looming over the horizon, the instances we currently spend all of our time inwill become obsolete. The dusty halls of Karazhan will be forgotten and we will never have another chance at obtaining an Amani War Bear.
So, here's your chance to commemorate the good times with your fellow guildies and spruce up your WoWspace.
Here is what you will need:
- White Cardstock
- Color Printer
- Scissors
- Paper Cutter
- Xacto Knife
- Double Sided Tape
- Photo Frames (8x10)
- Matboard (3 for 8x10 frames)
World of WarCrafts: Conjured photo frame
Mages deserve some love. Providing hundreds of biscuits and polymorphing adds for your raid is sure to take a toll on even the hardiest of magi. Not to mention removing curses, stealing buffs, and making everyone temporarily smarter. Oh yeah, there's that damage dealing thing they do too.
So take some time to express some gratitude for your under-appreciated arcane ally by conjuring up this custom photo frame.
Here is what you will need:
- Scrapbook Frame
- Acrylic Paint
- Soft Glitter Paint
- Scrapbook Paper
- Fine Glitter
- Gems (also used in the Voidwalker Doorknob Hanger)
- Mod Podge
- Wooden Letters
- Wooden Sheep Shape
- Ribbon
- Scissors
- Xacto Knife
- Paper Cutter
- Pencil
- Toothpicks
- Paintbrushes
Rumor: Wrath of the Lich King Collector's Edition box
Here's some good Wrath of the Lich King rumor-juice for you tonight. Pictured to the right is what has shown up on the internet as a Wrath of the Lich King Collector's Edition box. I for one think it looks real. It was posted on the Paladin Schmaladin blog two months ago, although reader Allen just tipped us to it this evening.The poster over there notes that the box comes from her friend Gene, who supposedly works at a printing facility. Gene couldn't get one out of the printing factory, so instead he snapped an image of the box with his cellphone.
Through Paladin Schmaladin, we're also told that the printing press had the WotLK box orders pushed back four months. This could be an indication that Lich King will be coming out later than expected, although since Blizzard hasn't really announced a release date, we'd probably never know the difference.
Nonetheless, enjoy your nightly WotLK rumor. It looks to be a good one.

This summer, from the producer of The Odd Couple, and the director of The Crying Game comes an experience you'll never forget - Patrick and Kyle's WoWspace!Okay, maybe not earthshaking, but I do find it interesting that it's a shared space. Do any of you share your WoWspace with another? If so, send it in! Here are the details:
Patrick and Kyle's WowSpace from Southern Wisconsin.
Characters from Left to Right
Gorgas - Level 70 Warlock (Skywall PvE)

Budenhagen - Level 70 Rogue (Arathor PvE)
Delicious Hordecake

This is certainly the best WoW-themed edible item I've seen yet. What impresses me is that even the wood-looking part of the shield is edible -- that can't have been easy. Apparently the person who made this has a habit of making awesome cakes, which makes sense; you wouldn't expect a cake this nice from a noob cakester. She's been dating a WoW player, and made him this for his birthday. I wish my girlfriend was this supportive of my WoW habit...At any rate, head over to flickr for a few more photos, including really big ones if you want to print out a life-sized version and pretend.
Seen any other good cakes lately?
[thanks, Nelson]
