Colorful Ceramic Pots, Inspired by Tetris
During a ceramics course in the Estonian Academy of Arts, French product designer Stéphanie Choplin decided to get creative with Tetris shapes and came up with these 3D Ceramic Tetris Pots. It's such a shame that these beautiful indoor or outdoor home accents haven't made it to retail outlets just yet, because I could see them being a hit with both geeks and nongeeks. As you can see, they make the perfect planters, and if you're not the green type, I think it's safe to say they'd double as decent chips, salsa, guac, and sour cream bowls!
The Tetris Bracelet Is For the Disco Geek
So this geeky bracelet is not Hermès. It's also not $567.
Instead, this Tetris Bracelet ($70) is pretty cool and while exceptionally geeky, it's not unwearable.
Edible Geek: Scrumptious Tetris Brownies
Tetris; So colorful, so challenging and so creatively inspiring! From the Tetris Quilt, to the Tetris Magnets, the Tetris Skirt and even the Tetris Wedding Cake, DIY Tetris creations are out in full-force. But you just have to check out these Tetris Brownies which I came across on Craftzine — aren't they the ultimate geek treat?
Dork Alert!
What do you do when playing Tetris on a Saturday night is no longer the thrill it once was? Throw some arm wrestling into the mix! Tetris + arm wrestling = Tresling.

Tetris Ice Cube Trays: Love It or Leave It?
My first thought when I saw these Tetris ice cube trays was — do I have glasses big enough to play Tetris with my ice cubes? Dubbed Tetrice by Martin Zampach, these are a little more fleshed out than the Instructables version that yumsugar featured, but it's only a concept for now. Lets see, you could play a really freaking cold and low-tech version of the game, or pop 'em in a pitcher of drinks for your geeky guests, but I don't know that I'd buy these when I know I can make them.

Tetris Quilt: Love It or Leave It?
I seriously thought that the Tetris wedding cake took Tetris love to a whole new level, but after spotting this Tetris quilt, I'm beginning to sense a Tetris-obsession trend. Amy, the geek-chic mastermind behind this creation, credits the game pattern to her boyfriend Steve, who is quite the avid gamer himself. Gotta love how she can literally wrap herself in her own geeky creation.
