Hello All! Welcome back to day TWO of my feature of the amazing Esther at Once Upon a Bustle! Today, Esther has decided that she will be amazingly generous and is giving away a personalized, custom-made hat for one lucky follower of this blog! Let's take a moment to look at some of the amazing hats that Esther has created before.
a Rafflecopter giveaway
This first creation is a hand-decorated beauty called the Steam Victoria. It is a mini hat, made of black woven straw and looks like a mini fedora or cowboy hat, perfect for any genre of Steampunk fan, whether you lean more towards England or the American West! I really like this because it's so versatile and will fit with almost any Steampunk costume. Plus...it's adorable!
And let's not forget the Time Traveling Gentleman of those Steampunk fanatics! Here we have a very cool stylish and essential Derby hat.In Esther's words, every man's hat has a story to tell...it shows where you have been and where you may be going in your travels through time. Why not make those travels all that much more stylish? As for me personally, I actually like the derby hat much more than the sophistocated and stylish girlie counterparts. I guess my inner Tom-boy is showing...Think, where would Captain Jack Sparrow be without his hat? Nowhere...that's for sure...
So do you want to start your Steampunk costume out right? Or maybe you just need that little extra flair for your next Steam Con? Or perhaps you just think Esther's hats are pretty (which they certainly are). Well you are in luck! I am giving away a custom creation by Esther to one lucky follower. Just enter in the raffle copter below and good luck to all of you!
Also remember! That for the GRAND PRIZE GIVEAWAY of Let's Get Steamy, Esther will also be making a custom made vest for the winner! So keep commenting, keep tweeting, and keep coming back to check out more awesomeness in the world of Steampunk!

Omg! That last hat is so cool! I'm going to the World Steam Expo in May/June and I would LOVE to have a chance to win a hat like that!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's an awesome hat!
ReplyDeleteLove the Mens Victorian or Steampunk Low Cut Double Breasted Vest, even though I am not a man.
ReplyDeleteI love it too Ricki! And the best part is if you win the Grand Prize, Esther will customize the mens vest for women! So keep your fingers crossed chick!
DeleteI love the hats and the pirate costume! *_* Please enter me in the giveaway only if it is international. Thank you!!! :D

ReplyDeleteI love the Steam Victoria hat. But I love all of her hats :)
ReplyDeleteI am digging the Lost In Time pin on her Etsy site. I love it. And I really want my hubby to get a vest from her. So lovely. :D
ReplyDeleteI really love the women's hats she's made. Really awesome stuff!

I loved everything, but the hat in the top right corner and the comb with the clock face from the interview post really blew me away! Great interview, I love reading about people following their passions and being able to make a living from them :)
ReplyDeleteI love the hair-comb too! If I had any spare cash you know that's what I'd be getting! lol
DeleteWhat a artwork is really existing in the same source! I have found the exceptional featured hat from this source. It's authentically looking one of elegant source for me. I am totally surprised to see this one. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe first hat is really pretty but I kinda dig the Derby hat more.
ReplyDeleteI know! I'm actually more of a Derby fan myself...I guess I'm at least part of a Tom-boy at heart...sort of...kind of...If Tom Boys also like stilettos...lol but yeah...I like the more...rustic feel to the derby!
DeleteThe derby is amazing, I would love that!
ReplyDeleteI like the Steam Victoria. It would go perfectly with the theme and colour scheme of my bedroom... and I'd wear it once in a while of course :) However, if it's possible, I love the headband on her Facebook I'd wear that every day if I had it ;)
ReplyDeleteLOve them both but My fave is the 2nd one Time Travlin :)
ReplyDeleteI love the brown derby hat. Ever since reading Scott Westerfeld's Leviathan series, I've wanted a Lady Boffin hat so much, and it would go perfectly with my steampunk librarian costume.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE any of the beautiful and amazing hats! The brown derby hat is so fantastic;) It would be such an honor to own of these time pieces in my collection! Thanks so much for having these fabulous giveaways! I just LOVE your blog;) I really appreciate the chance to enter such a fun giveaway!! Thanks so VERY MUCH for everything! smiles, LuAnn
ReplyDeleteYou did a fantastic job on her interview! How interesting and a fabulous article to read. I just LOVE all of your interviews that you have had. I also enjoyed your steampunk article with Marelle. Both were out of this world.....THANK YOU so much.
