Fancy a little Steampunk for Christmas?
You may remember, earlier this year, I was privileged to attend a book launch for Steampunk Apothecary? It was a wonderfully fun occasion for dressing up and eating lots of cake.
The authoress, Jema Hewitt, is a hugely creative and multi-talented lady, who works extremely hard at making a living, and always with a smile. Today she is at Waterstones in Bradford, signing her books and demonstrating jewellery making. I wish I could be there, but this post will have to be my contribution.
Maybe you have a daughter or niece who would like something from her Etsy store? I know there are a few pieces I wouldn’t mind. And you can buy the book on there too. The recipes are unique.
Mr. Woppit is adorable! Do you remember him?

A page from “Steampunk Teaparty”. The red-haired lady is my daughter!
Another beautiful Jema creation.
If you ask for the book at your local Waterstones, even if you don’t buy it, the store will register your interest. Every little helps! I can claim no credit for the photos. They are all from Jema’s Facebook page.
Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend. Many thanks to Cate for hosting Six word Saturday. As usual, click on the links for more details.
What a wonderful occasion Jo. You certainly have some fun events over there.
I know a lot of people who are endlessly young at heart, Michelle. I try to be one of them 🙂
And you take me to some really interesting places!
It is a shame you couldn’t attend as I know it had to be a delightful occasion.
I saw some photos of Jema making “octopus tentacles” for the children, and wearing a flame red wig! Never a dull moment, Karen 🙂
