Defiant Damsel

Arts and crafts suck for the most part, unless of course you can do the double cobra lanyard stitch, and everyone wants to trade you for Warheads. Peddling the second-coolest arts and crafts wares ever: Defiant Damsel

DD's a collection of movie- and pop culture-inspired cross stitch artwork ready to hang next to all the other cross stitch artwork on your wall, sewn by a Jersey girl who learned the craft from her mom and now spends "every non-working hour with a needle in her hand", also a lifestyle Bubbs returns to once the Whitey Sale's over. Block-quoted works include the Hedberg nod/lime-including "Saved by the buoyancy of citrus", Run-DMC's "Me and my Adidas do the illest things" (stitched in red and bordered by three black stripes), and Anthrax's "I'm so bad I should be in detention" above three hands throwing horns, also the original name of the album by Live, before they realized people were way more into conductive ductile metals. Movie-centric stitches are highlighted by a black and gray Donnie Darko portrait, a full-color Robert SmithEdward Scissorhands scene, and a sewn-up rendition of Blade stuck to a refrigerator magnet -- appropriate, given Snipes's upcoming trip to the cooler

There're also some not-easily-categorized bits like a red/black piece titled "Ninja Please" and a stencil of a dude with a spiked mohawk, and if there's something you'd like to see, she "loves custom orders", although those'll probably run you some full-size Laffy Taffys and maybe even a bag of Swedish Fish.
