Space Invaders Gift Toppers Ready to Land on Presents Everywhere
June 24th, 2012
Don’t these paper Space Invaders look amazing? They are all rainbow and pixelly just how I like ‘em. Perfect to put on top of a gift or just hang up on the wall. These bring back good memories of blasting aliens to smithereens. Plus, the handmade touch makes them much nicer than just plain old Space Invaders wrapping paper.
They were made by Kate of Minieco who is a very talented paper knitter. I don’t think I could have done anywhere near as good of a job as she did, but if you want to try your hand at making these, she has instructions on her website.
She suggests using them as gift toppers instead of bows, which is a great idea, but you could use them in any number of ways and they will look great. These are so good I can already hear the sound effects of the game rattling around in my head.
