As if things couldn’t get any better than our adorable and popular Super Mario Brothers Mushroom Candy and our imitation retro-controller Nintendo Power Mints, behold our motion sensor powered Wii Controller gum tins that are pretty much the same size as the real ones, but lacking the ever-important safety strap. After you’ve finished off the peppermint gum you can use the case to store useful things like pens, DS cartridges, memory cards, ball bearings, or any small thing you need to tote around inside a Nintendo controller.

If you’re feeling of a particularly DIY spirit you can attempt to mod the case into something useful like a toothbrush timer, pre amp, actual remote control, or any of the other projects featured over at Make.

Pink Nerds are Cool T-Shirt
The absolutely essential first step in proclaiming your nerdy allegiance is to rock a t-shirt that shows the world what you think is worthwhile proclaiming to the world. This pink faux-vintage tee features a distressed graphic featuring Nerds—as in the cartoon versions of the Wonka-created candy—romping around an exuberant statement of the cultural significance of technologically sophisticated individuals. Check it out. $20.

Estrogen Necklace
Nothing says “girl” and “nerd” quite as beautifully and literally as this sterling silver necklace featuring the estrogen molecule. And, not only is estrogen essential in making a girl into a woman, it also influences bone density, body temperature, cholesterol levels, and skin and hair health. Who knew girlie stuff could be so useful (and totally nerdy at the same time)? $40.

Smiley Necklaces - Sterling Silver
As anyone who works with computers and language (including computer languages), text and western punctuation are great for conveying logical instructions and data, but expressing emotions require a more artistic approach. However, we’re lucky to have a system to communicate emotion with common ASCII punctuation–Smileys. Why not express yourself in a totally geeky way with one of the many options in the silver Smiley Necklaces. $65.00.

Credit Card Organizers - Pink - 6 Card & 12 Card
This neat gadget holds 6 credt cards that correspond to each of the switches on the top. If you want to grab your Visa, just push the VISA switch and that card gets nudged out just enough so you can grab it. When you’re done, just put it back in the slot and you’re ready to go. No more leafing through your wallet at the store while the crowd behind you in line gets angry! $39.50

Diskette Handbag
And here’s a cool way to tote around your new pink credit card organizer, along with your essential gadgets, make up, keys, and the like. This black pvc handbag features six real floppy disks on each side, and the inside has pockets to carry around the essentials, and enough interior space to stash those less essential things. Totally geek chic. $55

Floppy Disk Earrings
There’s no way to undermine how nerdily-cool floppy disks are. Entire operating systems and programs used to be distributed on floppy disks, but as time and technology progressed, floppies were superseded by CD-ROMs, then USB and high speed internet connections as a way to distribute data and programs. However, when cast in silver, they make very cool earrings. $40.00

Customizable Dot Matrix Wrist Cuff - Pink
Hacking and DIY go hand-in-hand. Just check out MAKE Magazine and all the cool projects they have for modifying everyday objects into increasingly useful things. So why shouldn’t your fashion accessories represent your DIY spirit in a way that wouldn’t warrant a visit from the fashion police? Grab yourself a blank Dot Matrix Wrist Cuff and punch out the dots to spell a word, acronym, or expression in pixelated form by punching out dots on a 5 x 30 grid to form words or patterns. Here at Fractalspin we’ve provided templates so you can easily express your geekativity with patterns like “WTF,” “MYSQL,” “APACHE,” “</ARM>,” “LINUX,” and more. Check out either of these templates we’ve made to help you out [1] and [2], choose your favorite, punch away and out your closeted nerd self. $30.

So your mom can program in assembly? Or maybe she’s just really into totally unique jewelry? Either way, we’ll help you find a nice Mother’s Day gift for her that she’ll adore. For instance, check out these Estrogen Earrings featuring the estrogen molecule cast in sterling silver. There’s also a matching necklace to complete the “feminine” look.

Your mom loves to travel? Why not get her a matching set of Circuit Board Luggage Tags? The bright red ones will make her suitcases stand out in a crowded baggage carousel so she can grab them quickly and get on with her trip. Pick up a matching Circuit Board Notebook so she can keep a journal of her journey and jot down notes. And surely she’ll meet interesting fellow travelers along the way and want to stay in touch. A Circuit Board Business Card Case is just the thing to hold her calling cards.

She won’t believe that the pretty teal “beads” on the Teal Triple Capacitor Necklace are actually real capacitors until she sees them up close. For the less-nerdy moms out there, just tell her to flip the package over so she can learn about how vital capacitors are in most electronics. And to complete the look, get her a pair of matching Teal Capacitor Earrings.

Most women have either a handbag or shoe addiction (or both!), so why not get your mom a cool purse? She’ll flip when she sees the Diskette Handbag that has six real floppy disks on each side. And for nights on the town, she’ll appreciate the use of duct tape in the Duct Tape Purse and Starburst Duct Tape Clutch. Remember when mom would put little notes in your lunch? Write her a note saying how great a mom she is, and then hide it in one of the pockets for her to find–it’s totally sweet and it’ll make up for all those times you forgot to call. :-)

Here’s a few more of our choices for nice gifts for mom.
