Maker Faire 2010

We finally made it to the Maker Faire this year.  We've been trying for the last 3 years to go.  What is the Maker Faire? It's an exposition with workshops and 6 pavilions, and 5-acre outdoor midway, over 100 exhibiting Makers, hands-on workshops, demonstrations and DIY competitions held in San Mateo, California.

    It looks so cool. I really must look into checking out the Detroit venue (2 to 3 hours away, but looks worth it).

    I"ve been aching to check this out for a couple of years now! Dratted work... ; )
    Love the pics!

    I recently discovered that I am a closet Steampunker... I have to live vicariously through my dolls... sigh... lol!

    Trying to finish one up now, so I can submit her to a couple of things- online doll newsletter and a book based on Steampunk. Keeping my fingers crossed!

    Take it easy Aileen!
