Steampunkery

Getting into the whole Steampunk spirit as I get ready for Dragon*Con we are inspired to redecorate the den in Steampunk chic. While I was looking for inspiration one day in Hobby Lobby I hit the mother load! Hobby Lobby has all kinds of steampunkery items to really finish out a room.

(Please excuse the photo quality - I only had my cell phone to take pictures with.)


Great faux leather and wood decor boxes.


It looked like a mini trunk!


The frames have that warm antiqued gold look and the Victorian decor. Perfect accent pieces!


More good wall decor.


A multitude of clocks to choose from!


I'm a sucker for analog Roman numeral clocks or watches.


This pedestal clock was soooo cool! The clock face spun around to a barometer on the other side - how very scientific.


More awesome Victorian-esque clocks.


A nice occasional table. The wood was a nice rich looking cherry. The drawer and doors opened for fashionable storage.


An antique map lamp.


An antique globe lamp!


Nice brassy desk lamps.


Fun shelf decor items. Globes and a mounted pair of binoculars.


Almost Deco looking desk tool set.


Small desk telescope.


Nice amber ginger jars.


The same ginger jars in ruby.


A cabinet for curiosities. Closed.


Open. Three glass shelves for display items. I actually bought this cabinet. I have almost filled it up with our various curiosities.


A matching desk organizer. I was trying to figure out how to mount 2 or 3 on top of each other.


Pretty decorative ruby glass bottles. Nice colour punches for a dark vignette.


More lovely Victorian-esque accent pieces.

I wanted to buy it all! But seeing as how we don't have the new furniture for the den yet, I couldn't justify getting all that and not know what I would need where. Just waiting to be able to go shopping.
