Appeal To Your Inner Nerd By Revamping Your Pad With Geek-Chic Decor!

I may be the ultimate fashionista when I'm out on the town (ha!), but behind closed doors I'm a total nerd. Beyond my pile of shoes is a neatly-arranged collection of Nintendo DS and Wii games (not to mention tons of movie musicals on DVD), and slightly obstructed by all those unpacked shopping bags is a whole Sanrio store worth of Hello Kitty collectibles that I definitely bought in the most recent quarter of my 23 years. And since my working life largely revolves around a computer (and it's hell on my vision), I've recently joined the "four eyes" club with my new eyeglasses that I can't even watch "Project Runway" without! I thought my geekdom was complete... that is, until I stumbled upon all this cute nerdy decor! I don't have an iPhone, but these App Coasters are still an adorable addition to any tabletop, and these Tetris Wall Decals are a fun and colorful replacement for that "Battlestar Galactica" poster you have hanging in your home office. And now you can sing a tune-deaf ode to your favorite periodic table element while you wash up in the shower. For more geeky-chic additions to your home, check the slideshow!
Hot In The Hive: Space Invaders Gift Wrap

You might think it's what's inside the wrapping paper that counts (and the thought behind it, of course), but when it comes to making the distinction between one seriously awesome gift and the other seriously awesome gift right beside it under the tree, presentation is crucial! This Space Invaders Gift Wrap may be called "Dude Wrap" (maybe in an attempt to motivate your boyfriend to help you wrap presents, and not in newspaper), but I think it's totally geeky-chic! Even if you have two left hands when it comes to wrapping presents, the gamer-themed paper is cool enough to make even the most wrapping-challenged gifters want to whip out the tape and scissors and toss out the gift bags and tissue paper! Of course, you might want to practice with something cheap first, because at $4.50 a sheet you'll want to make sure the pixelated print doesn't go to waste!
Price: $4.50
Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add the Space Invaders Gift Wrap to the Hive.
