Today, we've been getting all 'mad professor' in preparation for the Steampunk Extravaganza at the Cheese and Grain in Frome.
It's not until May but we are very excited about it, and have, in fact booked 2 tables!
Jez has been in the workshop, covered in cogs, nuts and bolts and all sorts of stuff and is currently working on his Victorian crazy inventors desk..........
We've got chemistry equipment, fans, crazy lamps and we will also be having boxes of bits for people to rummage through to steampunk their own stuff.
Steampunk sits between genres really. It is heavily based on Victoriana but with a modern bent. Is it 'vintage'? - well not really but it is very influenced by the past.
In fact Prada's last men's collection wasn't just nodding at steampunk, it was whole heartedly shaking it's entire body! Have a look at this picture to see what we mean...
We'll be bringing you more news as we progress into the world of steampunk.
