Hi, thanks for stopping by.
I'm Andi Child from Chasing Whimsies.
I have been making one of a kind pendants, keepsake boxes and various other Steampunk inspired items for quite a while now but I recently (at the suggestion of one of my best friends) decided to sell my creations on the internet. You can find all of my items for sale at Etsy.com.
I am still testing the water so to speak and at the moment I have only listed a small number of items to see what people are in to, but hopefully if you are reading this you might find something you like !
I suppose my first exposure to Steampunk was back in 2003 when I went to see "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen". I was transfixed at the remarkable inventions, fashions and creativity in front of my eyes and I knew I wanted to be part of it.
I spent many months researching everything I could about the Steampunk genre but, as with many things, life got in the way of what I really wanted to do. I am now in a position to pursue my creativity and, after making items for my friends and family, I feel I am now ready to offer my creations and projects to the general public.
So why "Chasing Whimsies" ? Well I have spent many years doing just that.....chasing one whimsy after another so I thought I would name my business after what I do best.....chasing whimsies.
My interests range from animals to music, theatre, shopping and my ultimate favourite......films. I find myself completely transported when watching a good movie and you will find some of my work is very inspired by films I see.
The purpose of this blog is to show you any upcoming projects I have on the go, finished items and general opinions I may have on anything that takes my fancy !
Until the end of April I am offering Free Shipping on all items, no matter how many you buy
Here are some of the items I currently have on Etsy :
Well, I hope you have enjoyed your 'taster' of Chasing Whimsies. Please stop by again and, if you feel inclined, treat yourself to one of my creations ;)
Andi x
