This got me thinking about Victorian and Steampunk kits. We all love Steampunk and Victorian items so I thought how lovely and fun it would be to gather together a fun kit of Steampunk and Victorian inspirational craft items. New and old. Fill an A5 envelope OR if you like depending on shipping costs, a school box or cigar box of goodies. I am requiring at least an A5 envelope due to international shipping costs but that doesn't mean you have to stop there. This is an international swap so keep an eye on your shipping weight. 4.9 or higher rating, no one's unless you convey me first. You will have about 1 month to build and mail your kit. Include at least 10 different items. Some ideas might include:

Old book pages Antique photos and images related rubber stamps, ink pads and stamped images clock and watch gears lace ribbons jewelry notions, chains, charms buttons beads ephemera tags tickets, library cards, trade cards millinery supplies paper and silk flowers related crafting and scrapbook papers little vials of things, glitter, gears, ect doodads-bottle caps, scrabble pieces, dominoes keys, metal tags industrial found items-vacuum tubes, springs, rusty items Tim Holtz stickers, vintage mailing stamps pretty little boxes and bags tassels chip board and punched images pieces of silk, satin, velvet and related fabrics sea glass, sea pottery specialty pens, markers pretty buttons and hat/ corsage pins
