Welcome to the Steampunk Home Christmas List, Edition 2009. There's a section of my personal selections, one chock full of Etsy finds, some things for the steampunklets in your life, and some Christmas things.
I tried to keep it relatively economical, so very few things here will be more than $100.
If your recommendation didn't make this list, I tried to add it to the
Kaboodle list or bookmark the larger sites for a future post of their own.
My FavoritesThis section is my personal gift list -- the things I really want for Christmas!

I can't afford an Eric Freitas clock, but this
print of his Mechanical Clock Number 6 fascinates me. $20.
Think Geek's Molecular Gastronomy Kit. Not very Victorian, but these edible chemical experiments in the kitchen would be a lot of fun. $59.99

I cannot wait to read this design book. $29.70 at Amazon.
Zeppelin Tin Toy, $10.98. My zeppelin obsessed steampunklet is *so* getting this. Tin Toy Arcade actually has 4 different zeppelin designs.
The Private House![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_u26MbTtduy6l8Cd2Awo_PdANxJrpXKiBrRy9e4wiUAR4c0J2fv5SFcmkuJOCPp1AWzqI71__uaA0CwOvX31KYJNmB_8fQtwqTnJUaObUlMMMwupUJExg9QKYMG7BJ8uImDoy5M621e6A=s0-d)
is the prettiest home book I've read all year -- full of antiques, natural materials, and simple yet elegant rooms. Nothing explicitly steampunk here, but if you like my taste you will probably like this book too. $37.50.
