In addition to my own jumble of odds and ends, my Dad recenly presented me with some stuff he had. What am I doing with all this?
I had everything spread out here trying to get it all cleaned up to make it suitable for more steamjunk, er, I mean, steam
punk books, of course. As you can see, I've got quite a supply of odds and ends...considering each book uses only a couple bits, this stuff will keep me going for a while. Here are a few new ones - I particularly like the one with the old telephone piece on the front.

Lucky you! I love the look of all that "junk" - it really depends on the eye of the beholder, doesn't it? The books you are making with it are imaginative and very collectible I think, and I'm sure they are fun to make.
You have a great eye for taking a single piece of hardware and integrating it into the structure of your books! I look forward to seeing more!
thanks carol and laura! yes it's lots of fun making these, the possibilities are endless :)
Your dad must really think a lot about your work to think of you when he sees stuff you might use. I bet something in that pile sparks your imagination.
Wow, super cool books! Good job.
One mans junk is another mans gold.
What an awesome pile of gold you have there. Looks like a perfect stash for 'altering' alcohol inks, acrylic inks and the like. Polish, sand and paint.
Congratulations on a great stash and love what you are doing with it so far.
Hugs

I think I may love your Steam Punk journals most of all.
Oh wow...these are so brilliant. Defiently thinking outside the square.
thank you Dolores, Kristin, Billie, Jennifer and Merry!
Very excellent. I know I asked this in email somewhere, but how on earth did you get the bits and pieces to stay on the covers?
