Steampunk Faerie Time Travel Contraption


The chair was made from a collection of broken doll's house furniture! I added wire arms and a butterfly back.......Also some steampunk style wings, which were quite fiddley to do, but I am  glad I  finished them! The whole contraption is linked with pipes and glass tubes, Goodness knows how it all works, but there are maps of all kinds to help this time traveller!

I had been meaning to do a steampunk themed minature for some time, and whilst looking at my 'bits and bobs' decided on a time travel device! In this piece, I used part of an old brass gramaphone, beads, watches and collage sheet with dials on........

Toadstools,flowers and moss have completely taken over this little cupboard!

Those Pesky goblins!

The pot of gold, jewels and an old shoe!

Those Pesky Goblins!

The top of the desk, showing the big book that the goblin's write down all the names in, of faeries and pixies that owe them money, or of those they have stolen from! There is a set of scales for weighing gold and jewelery and an ink well......As soon as I find one small enough, they shall have a quill to write with!

The drawer of the desk, containing gold and jewels.........

Those Pesky Goblins!

I wanted to make something that included Goblins and since they are known to steal, decided on transforming a small corner desk. At first I thought of a bank, as Goblins do like thier money! But realised after some research , that they will steal almost anything! On this desk , they have clearly taken gold, eggs, jewels and even shoes!
