Steampunk Metal Man Box

You already know I love creating crafts with a steampunk look. This time I thought why not take it a little bit further and create a 3D craft which will have a steampunk style. Since I've been creating Father's Day videos all week as part of a DT assignment I got that theme stuck in my head and decided to create a masculine project.

I first covered a chipboard box with torn pieces of patterned paper. Then I started working on the steampunk metal man. I used an old car light bulb for the body and some flat head screws for the legs. I attached it all together making sure it's balanced so the metal man could stand.

I created the head from a bottle cap and the face from clock parts. I attached the head to the body and let it dry. Then I added the hands from the same screws as the legs and embellished the body with more clock parts and gears.

After the metal man was ready and dry I attached it to the cover of the box and added more embellishments to complete my look.

Check out the step by step video tutorial with the complete supplies list to see the entire process.

Have fun creating!
