In Which I Write Things Down

My mother has opened an Etsy shop for her steampunk jewelry.

If you've seen my corduroy traveler's skirt, with the map insets and the dangly chains, or the earrings and pins I wear with it, you've seen her work. Unlike a lot of sellers, she takes watches apart down to the gears and base plates before reassembling them. I've never seen anyone with a design aesthetic quite like hers. She wires the bits together, which means they are sturdier than if glued and that they retain freedom of motion. (The gears spin, dude.) There are a few pictures of my personal collection underneath the cut.
If you or anyone you know wants some very distinctive steampunky accessories, please check her stuff out. I love it to pieces.
