       (NOT LEGO) Star(bucks) TIE Fighter Christmas ornament.

       Hey guys!
       There is a Christmas ornament making contest at one of the
       Starbucks near me. Part of the criteria is that the ornament has
       to use at least one of the four materials they give you: A dome
       lid, two halves of a straw, a handful of coffee beans, and a
       little felt thingy that has the word Christmas written on it in
       glitter glue.
       Well with the help of my sister, using two of the dome lids, a
       handful of straws, a ton of the drink sleeves, some tape, some
       glue, some paper, some paint, some cardboard, a bunch of sticky
       snow flakes, and a ton of Nerdiness, I have the perfect
       Christmas ornament!

       I don't know... I think the contest ends on Christmas day
       though.
       And... You hate STARBUCKS?  :o >:( :'(
       I live in the land of Starbucks. There are literally dozens
       within an hour of my house. We also have the big headquarters in
       Seattle (which is only a ferry ride away) and the Pike Place
       market where Starbucks was born!
       :P

       I like Peets coffee.. slow roasted.
       Starbucks flash roasts.. tastes burned sometimes.
       The guyw who own SB used to work for Peets... based in the SFBay
       area. Peets said NO to flash roasting even tho it meant more
       profit, so the SB guys left and started SB.
       They were prohibited from building a store in CA for 10 years,
       and Peets agreed not to build OUTSIDE Ca.. but they did mail
       order and web sales and out sold SB every year of the ten.

       I HIGHLY recommend Major Dickason's Blend...

       And there are a brickzillion SB in Oregon too...

       That's pretty nice, we don't have Starbucks in Europe though.
       And I don't drink coffee.

       Thanks guys! I had a lot of fun making it.
       @MsRowdyRedhead: That's very interesting, I don't think I have
       ever even heard of Peets. To be honest though I don't really
       drink coffee either. I rarely go to Starbucks, and when I do, I
       usually get a cold drink such as a Frappuccino.
       Btw, I love that word "brickzillion"! :P

       Hey everyone! The contest that I made this ornament for ended,
       and it seems the force is strong with this one. My ornament won!
