From robots, robots, everywhere, Doctor Who references round every corner, giant sculptures, motorized cupcakes, cardboard and duck tape village to more creativity than you can handle before you are are inspiration overload, Maker Faire is something you really DO need to see. For years friends have been telling me how amazing it was and now I wish I had listened the first time and that this wasn't my first go. So, so, so VERY cool! See more Maker Faire Pics here and our Mini Maker Faire pics here.

maker faire bound!



Last weekend mister participated in our local mini maker faire and this weekend we're off to see the sites in San Mateo for the main event. Here are oodles of photos from our mini maker faire adventure and if you are on instagram try searching for tinkers damn or SLOMMF# to see some fun pics of mister's ukes!

aren't they gorgeous?

From cookie tin ukes to knot tying to robot making to puppet shows, there was a lot to make and do at our fine mini event. We can't wait until next year, I'm going to join in the fun a well, what shall I teach people to make?
