So I need some Dr. Who craft ideas for a guy! I want to make my husband a Dr. Who themed care package and I need some ideas!!!!! He loves David Tennant and I want to maybe make him a journal that looks like a Tardis. I also would like to make him a guy like bracelet out of black cord, and somehow maybe put, "you never forget your first dr." and put David Tennant's name on it after that. So how could I do that? also any tutorials you can find would be great! I have been looking and have a couple ideas, but need more help! thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so there is a project called Magic Boxes that was popular not that long ago on this site. There was one version that someone did that looked like a TARDIS...I'll go find a link and paste it here.

I have a male friend who loves doctor who too, so everytime I see a doctor who inspired craft I favourite it. Here's what I have lurking in my favs:

Tardis plushie:

Tardis notecards:

As for the bracelet, how about some kind of flat circlar medallion with holes in 2 ends to attach it to the cord. You could use polymer clay or shrink-plastic and paint/write on it.

thanks girls! I want to try to make a tardis box, but out of wood, and I saw an awesome sewing box (that would be for me) that someone made, but I want something a little more simple. I like the idea of the plastic! I will look into that!

@Libby, have you made the fleece tardis? I wonder if it is hard to do? I LOVEEEEEEEE the notecards! thanks!

My husband and I both love Dr Who. I love the Daleks haha His Dr is David Tennant, I personally like Christopher Eccleston! haha he is my Dr. But Tennant plays it well!

I was also looking at the Dr Who tardis bag that is on here, and I want that for me, wonder how difficult it would be!?

I haven't made the tardis plushie Im afraid (or even looked that closely at the tute). I've never really made a 3D plushie before but its probably like most sewing: make sure the measurements are right and everything else is a doddle.

Have you seen the dalek cookies someone has just posted? Look great, shame the tutes in spanish.

I think I did see the cookies! That would be something cool to make with my husband but I would be afraid to send in a care package. I wouldn't want them messed up! Then they would be "exterminated" daleks hahahaha

I havent uploaded it yet but I made a tardis plushie for my boyfriend for christmas.
It took a very long time, but that was making the pattern, cutting it out and hand sewing it all.
I ended up making a cardboard insert for it as it didnt stand very well.
Ill try and remember to upload a pic of even the project after work as Im literally leaving in 5!

As promised one picture of a tardis!

Eeeek sorry its so big, I cant seem to edit it

If you'd be open to food-related items, I've seen Adipose marshmallows before. Super cute. :)

that is cute Lisa! I was actually going to make one, I bought the fleece awhile back, just havent! haha

at Emmy, wow, super cute! :) I looked them up!

the tardis river song journal would be good there is so many turtorials for felt, leather and fabric ones or the bbc site has a dowload of a book cover paper version

oh and theres a cute k9 pillow pet on deviant art with a really simle pattern

thanks! I will have to check out that k9 pillow! I hadn't seen that yet! :)

heres the link: http://rythela.deviantart.com/gallery/?q=pillow#/d30jiob

thanks! totally cute! :)

DAVID TENNANTS THE BEST DOCTOR...he was also my first but anyway...
FANTASTIC. thats just the 9th's doctor's thing to say.
BOW TIES ARE COOL. - 11th's doctor's thing.
I know somebody made a card that looked like a tardis and inside it said ' Be my companion' but that's for the guy to give for a girl so idk:/

-Make a weeping angel out of clay or adipose.
-Wrist band that says DON'T BLINK or count the shadows or Knock four times
-Tardis out of cardboard
-FISH CUSTARD,11ths dr's fav(ive never tried it...have you?)
-Make a bowtie

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww I will pass on the fish custard! hahahahaha

but thank you for the other ideas! :) those are great!

ive seen custard cookies - just custard falvoure cookies but fish figer shaped and crummed (with cookie crums) to look like fish fingers

LOL apparently fish custard just taste like fish...and custard. The tastes doesn't mix together when you're eating it. Well that's according to my friend. I've never tried it, but i will...ONE day.

I. Love. Doctor. Who. And. Matt. Smith's. Hair. Is. Magical. Ok, I am sorry, his hair is magical. But, I made a project that I never posted and it was uber sweet. A long time before that I had drawn a very cartoon-y Doctor who (10th) with the fez and the bow tie and the ugly vest thingy. So I drew and colored that. A few months later I had to make my sister a Christmas gift so I decided to make Doctor Who Nesting Eggs. Although I planned on making the tardis, the doctor, Amy, Rory and river I only got the doctor and the tardis but they turned out fantastic. But my sister was a brat and didn't care how long I put into then which resulted in them now living in the back of the top of her closet. But I painted the biggest one blue, added the "windows" in black, wrote police box on the top and let it dry. For the doctor I did his magic hair as a mostly side part, his red fez, green on the sides for his coat and buttons including suspenders, a hinge nose and smile and dot eyes. I based him off of my drawing. I think they still turned out well, even if my sister did not think so. Hope I gave you an idea :)

you could make adipose from polymer clay :P or even make a dr who chibi from clay, a dr who scarf. quirky bow tie necklace, darleck waste paper bin, tardis t-shirt the list is endless :)
