| Captain Electric and Battery Boy Captain Electric and Battery Boy is a heady fashion project with electronic elements in the clothing that respond to the actions of the wearer. The three dresses in the collection, Itchy, Sticky, and Stiff, each create a different thought provoking paradox.

Crinkle Square How-To I just finished up a lovely, crackly treat for my 9-month-old using this great crinkle square tutorial.

My son loves anything that makes noise and chewing on ribbons is also a favorite, so this is right up his alley. I just wish I'd made it months ago.
