Steampunk brooch- it's Lydia again!

Lydia spent too much time in the saddle, now she's so bow legged she doesn't think her legs will ever straighten again! OUCH! But she still loves riding the pony!

Steampunk Brain Drain

Daily tasks just drain your brain, by placing her head in the Brain Rejuvenation Helmet, Audrey is able to continue with her day. With all the new found energy she's ready to climax! She can do multiple orgasmic activities now- shopping, junking, dancing, party and play! The CLIMAX tin tag is from the late 1800's~a true antique. It's a tobacco tag for plug tobacco. A vintage glass watch crystal and old watch maker's brass parts box make up her helmet. Inside, a beautiful pewter face and multiple watch parts.

Green Earth Friendly Transportation

Steampunk Bicycle Necklace Going Green is a priority for Louise. She sold her car and bought a bicycle. It's a steel frame with no emmissions! How great is that? The bummer is those rainy days but she's still working on that problem. Large bicycle pendant made of steel>? not sure, it's very old and lost like it is die cut. I think it was part of an old sign. The metal tag- EMMISSIONS- is vintage, from an old control panel. Dangled from the bicycle is a drop of new and old beads. Vintage china with flowers in yellow, and a pretty yellow and pearl flower. The chain measures approximately 18 inches with a lobster closure.

The Watchmakers Wife

The Watchmaker's Wife He works day and night making watches for his clients, barely making enough to feed his seven children. He has a good, solid wife and she deserves a beautiful piece of jewelry. He scrimps and saves but everytime he gets some money to buy some gold to make her a piece one of the children needs shoes or the roof begins to leak. While digging through his parts box he found some wonderful junk, things he couldn't use in the expensive watches he sells. The thought came to him to assemble them together for his wife, she would know it was made with love and see the hard work he did for the family through all the tiny parts incorporated in the design. Ingredients: Vintage chain-20 inches long old watch parts, gears, pocket watch case, the number "77" from an old game, Tibetan silver bees, lampwork bead with a sterling silver center, faux pearls and an antique tobacco tag from the late 1800's. It has the number "48" on it. They were used on tobacco plugs to advertise the maker. The watch case is glass on both sides so you can see into it either way, it will always look good even if the pendant flips over while you're wearing it. There are 14 drops hanging from the upper pendant and a beautiful lampwork bead dangle from the chain.

Cowboy Country

I had so much fun making this guy. He's been on my worktable for a month, I kept waiting for him to tell me what he needed. I finally finished him today when I found that left hand. It was perfect for him to pic a rip.

Big ol' cowboy hat with a gear. Vintage key and token on the back for support. The token says, "NO CASH VALUE" so I guess he's not interested in playing for money, must be doing it for love. The guitar is just too cool, I found it in a box of old jewelry I had sitting in a closet for a year and haven't ever looked in.

AN EVENING AT THE OPERA

Years ago, a woman wore this stunning rhinestone brooch, before carefully placing it in a fine linen hankie, tucking it away in the back of her drawer. Along side it the key to the gatehouse with the pearl earrings she wore to the opera. The need to hold the memories being stronger than the fear of discovery.
