I was in the mood to do something crafty--and I've been wanting to make some steampunk goggles for art prop purposes. They're made from assorted pieces I picked up at the hardware store and suede.

I'll probably move to to my scraps soon enough.

The goggles look amazing :)

I was wondering if you'd be able to help me?
I'm making a pair for my school design project, what materials did you use for this?

Seriously, these are incredible!
A friend has asked me to do steampunk costuming with her for New Zealand's Armageddon in october so I'm trawling the internet for ideas right now.
These are definitely something I want to make!

Is there glass in these? Sorry to ask a weird question but how hard would it be to add tinted glass or plastic?

Thanks very much...these goggles are essentially made from trash...toilet paper rolls, scraps of suede, plumbing parts that I painted gold, and the lenses are just thin pieces of plastic that I cut off of a box....so I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to add tinted glass or plastic at all. I used the plans from this tutorial: [link]
but then deviated, of course. If you end up making some, be sure to send me a link so I can see :)
