Sparks & Steam
Battling blandness with badass art & wares!
Founded in April of 2019
Sparks & Steam offers unique products that are steampunk or cottagecore themed. Often our wares are beautiful, unique, or simply badass! These include original artwork, art prints, stickers, bookmarks, magnets, and more created and designed by artist Devin Wineinger. We are perfect for people who love unusual, creative, and high-quality artwork and wares from a small business!

Fan Art For A Cause
Using Art For Good
We want to use our art for good, so 100% of proceeds from the fanart we sell at Sparks & Steam is donated to World Vision. Just look for the orange "All Proceeds Donated to World Vision" sticker!
Now through May all the donations we collect will be given to World Vision's New Mother & Baby Kits. Each kit includes newborn essentials as well as infant care training. For more information on the kits go here.
Thank you so much for your generous support!

We aim to be a trustworthy business that treats others as we want to be treated. We donate what we say we will donate, we strive to keep deadlines as much as possible, and we dutifully collect and pay our taxes. It’s just good business!
