All Things Steampunk!

For a while I have been toying with the idea of starting a Steampunk blog. It's not something you hear of everyday and Steampunk is one of my favorite styles/genres.

So, I figured it couldn't hurt to have some more fun with the creations I make that are considered SP.

I make SP jewelry as well as crafts and other things that can be used around the house. It always seems to me that my SP stuff gets lost among the other creations I have and are not given the proper attention, so this blog would be the perfect way to show SP just how much I appreciate it!

To highlight my first post, I am featuring my first mini Steampunk top-hat! And you'll never guess what it's made out of! Go ahead, guess....toilet paper roll! (I like to recycle things)

It wasn't that hard to make, but it turned out to be one of the coolest things I've ever made off the top of my head.

I plan to attach it to a hair clip so it can be worn without falling off!

I added the small feather to give it more a pimp feeling and I think I did rather well.

It is so light that I am almost afraid that I'm going to break it.

Through a series of unintentional events, I found out this little guy is very strong and so, though it seems small, it is very fierce.

         

There you go, my first post and an equally worthy project. Perhaps one day I will post a tutorial as to how exactly I made this hat. Would anyone be interested in that?
