New Supplies Part II

So on my recent trip to Houston I picked up some new supplies. I am not sure what to think of them quite yet.




A good thing is that they are not real gears but have a nice heft to them and come out cheaper for customers than real gears would. These are the first two pieces made with the new supplies.

Dastardly Demon Doodads




These are some shots of the earrings, necklace and lapel pins.

Dusty the Steampunk Watch Dog


Hmm, the photos make him look a little scary but he really is a sweet little pup.
Eats even less than his big brother Rusty the Steampunk Cog Dog.
He is a little timid around Penny and Time but he loves adventuring on his own or exploring with Rusty. Sometimes I find him asleep inside a bottle cap all worn out. He is just so adorable then!

He is made completely out of real watch parts.
(Some not so clean as you can see by his face; what does that boy get into?!)


I was able to round the boys up for a family photo.
This also gives you and idea of Dusty's size. He can fit inside a bottle cap.

Real Clock Parts Necklace #2


This is the second necklace using clock parts and chain from the abandoned warehouse in Amarillo. The main chain and magnetic heart clasp are not antique. The heart is bronze colored and everything else is a gold color.

New Necklace: Real Clock Parts



I won't be making many of these but this is one of the designs I have had in mind for the past two weeks while I have been on vacation. (More details on that later...) :D

Meet My Cat: Time the Klockwerk Kitten

Between his mechanical mews I first heard when hunting through the warehouse and Rusty the Steampunk Cog Dog's nose, we discovered this tiny treasure. He was hidden in a corner playing with a line of string that had been attached to one of the old pendulum clocks. He is a native Texan, found in an abandoned warehouse in Amarillo.
He left us a note one day saying his name was "Tiem the Klockwerk Kitten" but for convenience I spellchecked the first part. For his own sake I left the rest of his name as he gave it. He's pretty clever and plays well with others. Won't you help Time find a happy home where he can play with all the string he desires?

Meet My Dog: Rusty the Steampunk Cog Dog


Meet my new pup. He doesn't eat much and his barks are quiet. I think he's adorable down to his button noes and his clock part toes. He helps me scrounge up spare bits at the clock yard. His favorite toy is his old crusty dice he found at an abandoned warehouse. (That is actually where I found him wandering around in search of a good belly rub and an oiling.) He is a native Texan from an abandoned warehouse in Amarillo.

I received a package of old spare clock parts from an estate sale and today is his birthday. I planned him out last night for the most part and got him put together today.

I'm really happy with Rusty. Won't you help find him a good home?

My cat Jules is looking a little jealous. He makes a good watch dog though...

Simple Antique Clock Keys with Leather Cord

So many people at the Steampunk Ball liked the regular keys on the leather cord that I decided to post some of the clock keys I have available.
Unfortunately I did not grab shots of the other keys before I sold them. They went quickly!

(This is the only one that is sized as a bracelet.)
