Getting out into the great wide world!

We were interviewed today on Steamed by Miss Maeve Alpin, who is the author of four Steampunk novels! It was so awesome! Please please please go check it out!

Besides that I have been working like a mad woman!! our dear friend at Airship Horizons is be so very gracious and giving Live Steamy a spot on his table at each of the up coming cons that he and his crew are attending! I'm preparing the first box of merchandise to be sent off to him now. So though we cannot be there in person at least we will be there in steam spirit. (ha! I honestly couldn't resist)

Then we have another event in March. We will be selling at this event http://yknotevents.com/coming-events/ It will be our first convention that we've ever sold at and I'm bursting with excitment but also totally stressed. I've been making things like crazy but even after so much time I still feel like we just don't have enough merch. But I'll keeping working on it until the very last minute! Guess that's just the way of it.

As a side note: if there is something in our etsy store that you have been eying I would really suggest digging in and getting it now! Our etsy is going to be totally barren during these events and those things you love may not come back. So get them before they are gone forever!

MM and New Bottle

So if you are new to Live Steamy's awesome, wonderful and incredibly fascinating blog *:) every Monday... ha! ok, ok, most Monday's we join in a linksy party called Musical Mondays hosted by our dearest miss Angie of My So Called Chaos (button to her blog at bottom!).
For this weeks song I picked a new country song I heard while driving the moving truck down to Florida and country was the only station I could get. But I totally adore this song. So cute.

"Mama's Broken Heart" by Miranda Lambert
She sings another song I really love and I'll have to post that sometime. Not Steampunk at all but sharing music is one of those things that shouldn't be limited!!!

So our second order of business is my goal of completing a project every day. And today's project was more of those little bottles but this one is so great!!!

Check it out here https://www.etsy.com/listing/123383025/original-stamp-poison-bottle and if you would please please please let me know what you think of the item but also the description I wrote for it.

Awww. I love you forever Steamy Fiends!!!

Thank you Angie for the linksy!

Today's Finished Project

So today's finished project is the flower covered mini top hat I've been working on.

The idea was to be kinda Alice in Wonderlandie and somewhere down the road do a shoot with big hair and really bright make up. I don't know if I personally like it but someone who really really loves gardening might.

I just took a pic of it on my art desk so you can't see a lot of the detail but there's the jist. I'll put it up on etsy when I can get some good photos.
