pixel people portraits possess plenty of pizazz

Looking for a really cool family heirloom? Look no further than these handmade pixel cross-stitch portraits.

For just $30 bucks, crafter Rubykhan will create a teensy, tiny pixelated cross-stitch likeness of you and a loved one (and Fido or Fluffy too).

Ready to have yourself immortalized in pixels? Then head on over to Rubykhan’s Etsy shop, plunk down your cash and send her a couple of snapshots for inspiration. Within about 2 weeks, she’ll work up your custom-made personal pixel cross-stitch. She’ll also do larger group portraits on a special order basis.

Ruby also makes some brilliant pop-culture pixel peeps inspired by the Craig Robinson’s Minipops – but alas, they’re not for sale.

You can check out more of Ruby’s wonderful pixel people cross-stitchery over on her Flickr gallery.
