I have officially had my first really fun assignment for my costuming job. I got to trick out two costume top hats for service as pieces for steampunk doctors. Well, not exactly steampunk, more post-apocalyptic-meets-traditional-Caucasian, but borrowing from the concept of thematically appropriate embellishment from the steampunk aesthetic. I bought some tiny glass potion vials to evoke medicine, and got to break a pair of spectacles apart withe a pair of pliers for component parts. ANY project that lets me break out the pilers is a win in my book, and it allowed me to put one lens on to evoke a monocle or a lens a doctor might use in examination, and my repurposing of the ear pieces suggests a needle. Add a little hot glue, and presto!

And I did this for my JOB. That I'm getting PAID FOR. HELLS YEAH.
