Cute Hedgehog Cell Phone Cozies

GeekSugar — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 03:00:53 -0700

I'll admit it, I have a thing for hedgehogs. Maybe it's remnants of my childhood love for Sonic the Hedgehog, or maybe it's just the fact that they are so cute, but I tend to gush whenever I see them. These Hedgehog cell phone cozies from Etsy are no exception. They were designed to "eat" i-Pods, cameras, cosmetics and even gum, and are made out of a Japanese-style handmade fabric "Sakiori." They cost $42 and come in a variety of patterns.

After PetSugar purchased the hedgehog with hearts laptop sleeve from Barry's Farm, I couldn't help but keep Barry's Farm and all its cute products on my radar. Well they've done it again with their latest adorable additions, the unicorn and owl sleeves which only cost $35 each. Made from durable canvas and lined with soft flannel and foam padding, these sleeves offer both protection and personality - Aren't they absolutely the cutest cases you've ever laid eyes on?!

Barry's Farm Robot Laptop Sleeve

I found a selection of adorable laptop sleeves from Barry's Farm a few weeks ago and PetSugar actually purchased one with an "awww" worthy hedgehog print, prompting jealousy from all the gals in the office. I'll admit though, the designs I showed you were a tad girlie and a few male readers emailed asking if the company has anything for those with more masculine tastes. Boy do they ever! The Barry's Farm Robot Laptop Sleeve, $40, features a cute robotic figure and customizable phrases like "Zorp!" on it.

Vintage Geek: Sega and Harrison Ford

Described as the "world's foremost celebrity painter," Brandon Bird has garnered attention for his hip, vintage-inspired pieces and keen sense of pop culture. His piece, No One Wants to Play Sega with Harrison Ford, reminds me of a time when Sega was the coolest console around and Harrison Ford, aka Han Solo, was a hero to geeks around the world.

I am a Nintendo girl, but I always had fun playing Sega and thought Super Mario could get a good run out of Sonic the Hedgehog.
