Its almost November and Christmas is right around the corner, can you believe how 2008 has flown by?
For me, the holidays have always been a creative time when I look forward to giving my wild creations to family and friends.
Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been very busy gathering supplies and I’m about to [...]
I just found a great interview with Jake von Slatt (also known as Sean Slattery) of steampunkworkshop.com.
I love the quote where Sean describes Steampunk: “I like to call it the intersection of technology and romance, it’s a way of injecting some humanity back into modern life,”
I think that’s so true, there is a dark romance [...]
In the construction and creation of Steampunk Jewelry or any form of jewelry making, you may find yourself perplexed by the wide range of ways to connect your precious pieces.
Fear not, there is a great site called This To That which will give you the best adhesive to glue…you guessed it…this to that!
Be it leather, [...]

This does not really fit into the genre of Steampunk Jewelry but I think it’s worth taking a close look at the amazing imagination, artistry and skill of Stephane Halleux. The artistry, which has gone into these pieces, is wholly inspiring to me.
His work takes you immediately into another world, his characters and creations surely [...]
This Post is slightly off the topic of Steampunk Jewelry but there is a really great online movement called the Handmade Pledge and I am keen to spread the word.
In the most basic of explanations, you can take an online pledge to give handmade and request that others do the same for you.
Taking the time [...]
Again, I digress from making Steampunk Jewelry to enjoy well made distractions!

With the current fascination for Artists making Steampunk Jewelry, it really can be something else to when you see how some people think so much bigger…like a Steampunk tree complete with an extraordinarily detailed tree house!
There is a fantastic video on Boing Boing and if the child inside is screaming… guess what…it’s for sale…I’m afraid [...]
