MMP and Steampunk, two great tastes...
Dec. 27th, 2007 06:10 pmI know a number of people reading this are going both to MMP and to the Steampunk Ball. Would any of you be interested in doing some steampunky craftwork with me while we're in Denver? I've got gears to spare in a variety of sizes, leather scraps and leather punches, glass beads and pieces of polished semi-precious stone, and some medium-sized bits of velvet, along with glass/metal epoxy and beading tools (good for affixing gears to things if you don't want to use glue). I think I have some very simple handsewing supplies (like needle/thread and pins) too, though I'd have to find them and confirm. (Nothing you'd want to sew a garment with, but enough to make, say, a pouch, or to stitch gears onto an existing piece.)
Among my projects will be retrofitting a hideous parasol into a steamy parasol, making some jewelry pieces, and making over a Duck Hunt gun into a pirate's aether pistol (not to self: find small glass globe; if you'd been thinking, self, you would have grabbed a couple of clear glass tree ornaments when they were on sale, but no such luck). (If I can find an appropriate stick for it, I'll also be making![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jmpava a walking stick, but no luck so far on that either.) I'd love some company!
