gin bustle inspiration
so, I'm going to do this frock properly and start with some inspiring pictures, instead of just pitching in like I did with the absinthe fairy. Ok I don't believe a word of that either, but here are some lovely pics of the era I'm aiming for anyway...
aha, well it's funny you should ask my dear friend... I was thinking a nice rotating key to wind the gin dispensing lady up would go down rather nicely on this one, what do you think?
I'm a costume designer, author and jewellery maker living in the UK. I live in an old cottage in Derbyshire, with my hubby, my house-bunnies Dan Hare and Digby a pussycat called poppy, lots of crafts materials, & a good supply of cocktails & chocolate.
