Fandom Mania March Break!

March Break was a week of Fandom Mania. Throughout the week teens participated in a library Fandom Time scavenger hunt, a Fandom Games night featuring Doctor Who Guess Who and Harry Potter Guess Who, Fandom Concentration, Zombie Nerf Target Shooting, a Fandom Trivia Night, a viewing of Princess Mononoke, and a Cosplay Fandom Party.

A huge thanks to the teens who helped make these programs awesome and Domino's Pizza for donating pizza for our teen Cosplay party!

 
Games and decorations included The Walking Dead Zombie Target Shooting, Make Loki Smile ("Pin the Mouth" on Loki), and other "fandom" posters.
 



 
Check out my "health" and "mana" cups!

 
Almost everyone came dressed up in Fandom Gear or in full Cosplay!
 
 

Everyone was invited to make figures or items from their favorite fandoms out of Fimo. Check out the tiny Pikachu below!



 
My favorite part of the night was watching all the cosplayers play Just Dance on the Wii!

Fanclub: DIY Sonic Screwdrivers

We made Sonic Screwdrivers! Eleven awesome teens showed up tonight to make Fimo Sonic Screwdrivers and other awesome geeky accessories. A great tutorial on how to make your very own Screwdriver can be found at here Doodle Craft.

 
All the pictures used in the tutorial should be credited to Doodle Craft as do most of the instructions.

 
I pinted off a few other ides of "fandom" Fimo crafts.
