To celebrate the release of the seventh and final season of “The Shield” on DVD, we rounded up the coolest crime and punishment themed handmade goodies we could find!

With wickedminky’s mini mustache necklace, you can bust out your cop ‘stache at your own convenience!

The Riot mobile by SaltyandSweet is sure to bring you sweet dreams.

This cop car tee is screened by hand by ArturoClothingCo.

Delicious looking soap in the shape of a cop’s favorite snack! (Donut soap by LoveLeeSoaps.)

Mouse and Squirrel play a dangerous game on this messenger bag by skirt.

This silver handcuffs bracelet by BrooklynThread might be a little small to use on an actual perp.

There probably would have been a lot less bloodshed on “The Shield” if Mackey and Co.’s greed could have been satisfied by cupcakes. (Burglars and Cupcakes illustration by tamaragarvey.)
