Greetings


I am happy to report that I have been selected as a vendor at TeslaCon 5 this November.

In its 4 year history, TeslaCon has won the title of Best Overall Steampunk Con twice, best performances twice and Best Tea Room, along with many other awards, it is now the most award winning Steampunk convention in the world according to Steampunk Chronicles Awards - 2012, 2013, 2014.  Each year TeslaCon has a theme.  This year is is Jules Verne's book, Journey the the Center of The Earth.   I will be bringing some work specific to that theme.

Princess Nancy & I will be traveling to Madison, Wisconsin for the event.  It will be our first time vending my designs in the midwest and we look forward to introducing them to a new audience!

Sleek SteamPunk Airship brooch completed!

It took a while, but here it is!

I think that it is one of my best.  The smaller of the two smoke stacks is the one that you saw me make and fit to the airship in my vblogs earlier this month.

Enjoy!    http://www.etsy.com/listing/190104252/sleek-steampunk-airship-brooch-pin
