Makin’ it official
There are legs everywhere at LwT HQ lately. Legs on the work desk, legs in bags, in boxes and in any tiger-proof container we can dig up. Some legs even went walking off on their own, thanks in part to Moo the intern. What’s all the hubbub? It’s restocking season, that’s why! The long, cold … Read More
Swim against youself?
I wasn’t sure how to start this post today. Originally, I was going to start off by talking about how wonderful this holiday season was for Life with Tigers. Craft fair sales have been excellent, new ideas are brewing and new opportunities to expand our little furry empire are on the horizon. In general, it’s … Read More

From the land of mega coolness, here are the promotional postcards for the Comic Con “Indie Toymaker Roundtable: Turning Characters into Toys” panel on October 14th, courtesy of Wendy at I Heart Guts. Even more fun is this blog update Wendy put up last week. Look, I’m a robot! Woo hoo! Now, back to leg … Read More
Stop it, you are making me plush
I was concerned that I was turning the corner into serious geekdom last year when I opted out of my AT&T iPhone contract to get my hands on the Droid R2-D2 phone (this IS the droid I’m looking for). Even more so when I realized I know what a Browncoat is (gratuitous Firefly reference). But … Read More
Robots and Fire and Circuits = Fun
I took a short break from sewing mushrooms and legs this weekend to slip in a visit to the Maker Faire at the New York Hall of Science in Queens. Part Burning Man, part science fair, part DIY mega paradise, this is THE event to go to when you need your fill of robotic technology, … Read More
