Steampunk is a hot trend in fantasy festivals, retrofuturistic gatherings are in fashion and we can see often examples of Steampunk in ads and videoclips on a regular basis. :) And one of the most iconic accessories for streampunk garments are the goggles. I happen to know personally a friend that handmade really lovely ones :) They sell via his facebook site for 29 Euro each, and are really well made. He also offer some other steampunk accessories. He is based in Spain but feel free to contact him through his personal fb site. Soon They wil be also  listed in etsy and I will update this article, but so far I wanted to share a picture and where you can buy them :)

Oh I want one of these... aren't they cute?

TARA from USA based Sandala Moon The perfect pouch for urban  or pixie pixies and fairies. Made combining different patterns, fabrics and finishing it with a professional serger. They LOOK AMAZING! and certainly they are a bit pricey but also hand-made, one of a kind items made for a long durability. Sandala moon also have some cute tribal bracelets and hair accessories but I wanted to highlight how extremely cute the pouches are. :), wearable, comfy, useful yet fairy :) and meant to last many years. :) Me wants, sigh! It makes me thing of a sunny day in Faerieworlds fest.

Eliu´s store creates jewellery and accessories inspired in pagan, celtic, and fantasy. Each piece is handcrafted and designed by her. The designs are entirely original (except for some special comissions). She offers circlets, crowns, necklaces, earrings, and almost a forest elven fairy could ever imagine to wear. :) Best of all, aside of looking gorgeous they are indeed rather affordable.

She has two ranges of tiaras, and even some aluminium made cheaper versions for those with tight pockets. But all of them really lovely.

And not only crowns and circlets but also all kind of complements, many of them one of a kind. I highlight this lovely half mask

To order any piece or even commission a custom order all you have to do is to email her at Eliudrae@hotmail.es

There is also a facebook  page where you can see most of her catallogue and also contact for purchasing http://www.facebook.com/elius.tienda

Nedda is a fantasy fairy illustrator (that I had the pleasure to meet personally past faerieworlds 2008). Since then aside of her own artworks she´s been a busy crafter and  has also  been selling some lovely hand made pendants, including some lovely fae necklaces in her store Enchanted leaves.

Among my favorite pieces, those featuring leaves. I do love the following :). They are made out of real leaves  electroplated to be preserved they  look  so fairy! Also since they are made out of real leaves there are unique and one of a kind and never two the same.

As I'm often obsessed with moths, they have also some lovely wooden moth and butterfly pendants :), very fairy. I like the moths in particular. One of my favorites.

Above: Oak Hawk Moth (Marumba quercus) necklace. The pendant is laser cut from wood, and it features a vintage illustration and  has been varnished and sealed.
