Steampunk Overload

by MissMalaprop on January 5, 2009

We’ve become a little obsessed lately with all things steampunk around my house. Suddenly my boyfriend is really into the whole thing – he even dragged me to Joann’s Fabric over the weekend to pick out patterns for vests and jackets he wants to make! And he’s started watching Threadbanger for more DIY steampunk ideas!

Just a quick search of Etsy brought me TONS of cool handmade steampunk gear. Check out some of the many amazing shops I found carrying loads of goodies for those in search of sci-fi meets Victoriana accessories to complete the ultimate steampunk look:

Impressive collection of steampunk finds! WOW! I’ve been a fan of Catherinetterings.etsy.com for a while, but I haven’t done much browsing any further. Thanks for such a great post!

COGnitivecreations pointed out to me that a lot of the sellers mentioned here are actually members of The EtsySteamTeam. Pretty cool!

jennine, who says you can’t? I’m sure you could find a way to work steampunk elements into your personal look. Sometimes the things you think up, style-wise, amaze me! And thanks – I’m really liking the new look myself!
