Week 37, can this be forgiven?

TOTAL.  FAILURE.
I have lots of excuses, but none of them are good ones.

Regarding a Memory Like a Thing with Holes in

I haven't given up on this project, really.  I just never find the time to post.  And since this is the only way I keep track of what I've made (or attempted) each week, the fact that it hasn't been updated in three months means several Things will have slipped my memory.  I will do my best to fill in the blanks and to update weekly from now on.
Week 24 (April 4-10):  Hemp necklace?
Week 25 (April 11-17):  Unidentified jewelry object?
Week 26 (April 18-24):  Hair cuff
Week 27 (April 25-May 1):  Hat for Sac Steam Ball
Week 28 (May 2-8):  Vacuum-formed keys and gears
Week 29 (May 9-15):  (This was the week of Jimmy's graduation.)  Total failure?  I have vague memories of pain and exhaustion that argue against my having started something in the car at the last minute.
Week 30 (May 16-22):  "Teacup" for SSS Picnic
Week 31 (May 23-29):  SSS Flyers
Week 32 (May 30-June 5):  SSS Bucks?
Week 33 (June 6-12):  Hat stand
Week 34 (June 13-19):  Half-cake
Week 35 (June 20- 26):  Shrug
Week 36 (June 27-July 3):  Origami fireworks

Week 23; an April Fool, me

I made myself a cunning disguise!
First I sculpted it from air-drying clay:

Then I vacuum-molded plastic over it:

Then I cut it out:

And for the final step I painted it with acrylic paints.
Then I took it to the Sacramento Steampunk Society meeting and took pictures of all the attendees (and the owner of the Karma Cafe) wearing it.
Speaking of which, since neither my father nor Admiral Macabre were in attendance this week it fell to me to make our April Fool's Day meeting interesting.  So I replaced our regular "Steampunk Meetup" sign with this one:

I also had everyone fill out Steampunk "Census Forms" in lieu of a sign-in sheet.  I think they found it amusing rather than tedious, so, mission accomplished!  Also I printed out ten forms and we had exactly ten people at the meeting, so hurrah for my estimating skillz!

Week 22 quick post

I was going to make a corset belt, but got lazy.  So I got out my button maker instead to make button earrings with the Sacramento Steampunk Society logo.  Still not done, so no pictures.

Week 20 quick post

This week ended with the Nova Albion Steampunk Exhibition, so what with scurrying to get ready for that I didn't have much time for doing a Thing of the Week.  I ended up making it at the convention.  My brother wore a moose hat to the convention, so I made a little bowler hat for the moose to wear.  It was made of air-drying clay, with a pin on the bottom to attach it to the plush moose head.  However, the clay didn't dry quickly enough so the pin broke off when he tried to pin it on.  I also have no photos and am unlikely to get any, as my brother took it home with him.

Week 18 quick post

Results:  It was meant to be a cloche, but for some reason several people said "pith helmet".

Week 19, for the silver screen

I've been putting off posting for so long it's getting ridiculous.  So I'm just going to post what I've got as fast as possible.
Results: On Wednesday night I was thinking about what to wear for the next day's Steampunk invasion of an Alice in Wonderland screening.  It occurred to me it might be appropriate to make some concession to the titular heroine's iconic hairstyle (which I haven't actually seen on her in any of the production stills. . . but that's neither here nor there).  So here is my version of "Alice Bands".  I deliberately made little attempt at neatness for a bit of a mad look.

Bonus:  I used what was left over of the single scrap of faux leather I had to make a matching wristband.
