All geared up

I'm never quite sure where the borderline between vintage and steampunk lies (nor that between vintage and shabby chic on the more feminine end of the spectrum) but I tend to work on the theory that if you throw enough cogs and gears at something, it makes it into steampunk. I'm sure devotees of the genre, complete with top hats, owls and goggles, would disagree, but we'll just have to agree to disagree!


As usual, my camera hasn't coped well with the dark coloured card. The bits that look black are actually dark blue. I keep fiddling around with lighting and settings but the camera always seems to get its own way in the end!

I am sharing this with

Just us Girls - Brown, Navy and Rust 


Watercooler Wednesday - masculine anything goes
