Does something like the 3 items from a hardware store, or 3 items of your choosing, count for 1 item, as it's one bullet point on your list, or does it count for the total number of items you used form that location. Apologies for being a bit dense  . P.S. Does a craft store happen to count as a hardware store >.> |

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

Ignore the 2nd "3 items from a hardware store."
Sulecen- 3 items from a location mean 3 different things from one place, so you will have a total of 3 items to use in your creation from the one point. I hope that makes sense. And no, craft store is not a hardware store.

Does leather have to be leather-leather? or can it be fake leather?

Oh for another three weeks to make the stuff i need to for the Asylum steampunk weekend. Unfortunately I will have to decline this one as I have more outfits than one can shake a stick at to make for the Lady Inkerman for the aforementioned gathering of notables. It really is a shame because I had a great idea for something (which I will now have to keep under my hat for another time).

Would absolutely love to do this, and if I can whip something up whislt in Alberta, I will post a picture, but I put no promise upon anything, for I am out visiting relatives. However I will have access to a large pile of semi working automobiles for a few days. I intend to steal as much as I can from them. WE SHALL SEE.

I really want to accept this challenge, but I am not sure if I will be able to do anything.
I am out of my own country until Aug 23, and leaving the country again on Aug 29, which gives me less than 1 week to put something together.
What I heck I accept. this gives me 2 weeks to plan and one to build.
Quick question, does it have to be for my noggin, or can I make something for the Wife or possible my kids?
