Steampunk dress & hat.

I everyone, i'm back after a short break,

My son-in-law is in hospital, but i'm glad to say he's on the mend.

I've kept myself busy with various projects,

I'd like to share my latest creation with you.

I had some fabric left over from when I made my curtains,

so I decided to dress my dress-form,

I bought it in a charity shop for the princely sum of 50p.

 

 

The top of the hat is a bottle-top.

 

I made the belt with left-over leather & peel-offs.
