PROJECT Step 15. We’re nearly done. Now we are just accessorizing. I chose to have wings, for which I chose some pretty filligree metal pieces. To do the same, wrap some 24-guage wire around the base. I threaded the wire through the holes at the bottom of the metal piece and twisted the wire together; I then slipped them inside the back of my corset. They stay quite secure this way. Behold, the finished corset (above). I Step 14. Attach the ringlets to yourused black edging and gears. You canadd whatever suits your fancy, from lace to head.

When dry, I will cut them tothe desired length. Step 16. If you want permanent wings, after the wire is slipped inside the corset, you can use a slip stitch to sew them in place. If you want an even more secure wing, you can glue the wires to the back of your frock and then wrap your corset around. And voila—now you are ready to take flight! Ta-da! We are finally finished. You can see I also added tiny gears and bits and bobs to my gown. I even have a large gear as my bracelet. I hope you had fun going on this costume adventure with me. I enjoyed having you along for the ride.Remember, you are only limited by your own imagination, so be bold, be daring, be inventive, and embrace Steampunk.

FEATUREHaving tea has always been an opportunity to escape the daily grind for a brief time. Over the centuries the manufacturers of fine chinahave understood this longing and have catered to it with the designs on their pottery. Here we see The Aladdin Tea Cart snuggledinside of a Blue Willow teacup. There are almost as many versions of the Blue Willow legend as there are slight variations to the patternitself. Basically the simplified tale is one of true love, and this is one favored version: There was once a beautiful young woman whose wealthy father employed a poor male student to manage his affairs. The youngstudent accountant and the lovely young woman soon fell in love to the displeasure of the father who felt the student unworthy of hisprized daughter. The young man was banished from the grounds by the father, who then went on to build a huge fence around hisestate so the student would not even be able to see his love interest. Only a single guarded bridge gave access to the estate. The father then betrothed his distraught daughter to an older man whom he considered a more fitting suitor. On the day of the cere-mony, when the heartbroken daughter was to meet, wed, and accompany her new husband to a distant land, her lover took advantageof all the chaos of the banquet preparations and snuck into the household in the disguise of a servant. He passed unnoticed across the bridge and into the daughter’s room, where they embraced and vowed to flee and be together for-ever. But even before they were out of the estate grounds, they were spotted and chased across the bridge by the angry father, thegroom, and his guardsmen. Just as the lovers were about to be captured and the young man likely put to death, the gods, touched bytheir devotion to one another, took pity on the lovers and immortalized them as two doves eternally flying together in the sky.
