Turkey Napkin Holder

I have been feeling quite festive lately, and so I made a napkin holder that looks like a turkey. =P I know the head/face is lacking a bit, but I couldn't figure out how to make it look quite right! This is one of my first builds to feature micro k'nex, actually, because I couldn't find any regular pieces to accent the face.

Knex Photo Frames

This build is easy enough for pretty much any age! You can make these with your kids, and then they can pick out some of their favorite photos to put up in their bedroom or playroom! Knex photo frames are fairly easily customizable to whichever size you need. I found that Wal-Mart's photos are weird sizes (the middle two frames). I am thinking a collage frame would be pretty cool made out of k'nex as well, but I am trying to figure out what exactly that should look like. So, I may get around to doing that a little later on. Without further ado, here is today's knex creation:
Four frames I made using random old pictures I found.

 If you've got ideas for new, creative, interesting, or ingenious builds, just let me know! Also, I am looking for builders to guest on my blog! So, if you've got something ingenious or useful you'd like to share (no matter your age!), just send me a tweet/message/e-mail/comment!

Knex Napkin Holders and Coasters

Greetings, readers! My builds today are small, but I thought they'd be rather fun. For those of you who don't personally know my hubby and me, our house has K'nex builds all over. It's become our own personal "style." Yes, yes, we're quirky and fun like that. =P I've got quite a list of things I'd like to make out of knex. Today, I present knex coasters and napkin holders.





My husband and I have three cats, so I thought these napkin holders would go just right in our house.

Of course, they could pass as foxes, too.


Stay tuned over the next couple weeks! I will be building an electric train to go around our Christmas tree. It's always so much fun. Come along for the ride! =D

K'nex Shadowbox for Small Gaming Characters

For a while now, my husband has been wanting a shadowbox or display case for his gaming action figures. I was going to buy him one for his ...
