Right now it looks like a bird filled with glitter, gems & everything pretty has exploded in my art room. Jake is loving the mess and has already run off with a couple feathers in his mouth. Chris thankfully hasn't seen it, and I'll be keeping the door shut to avert his judging eyes. But, the craft day with Mo was a great success!
My visit to British Columbia has left me with an obsession for feathered hair pieces. They are so pretty and paired with glitter, pearls, mirrors, gems and/or flowers can make them adaptable for any season.
My inspiration piece whenever I dive into making feathered hair accessories was bought in a little store outside of Victoria called Baja Rosi's. I love it! And any excuse to wear it, it's in my hair... no matter what the occasion.
These pieces, I made with Jaclyn. She has made some really pretty ones too.
All of the brown based, pearl & shell pieces I sent to my sister as a "back to school" gift. Plus I felt bad that I couldn't help her with the move out to her school-time home.
Today's hair pieces are going to be kept secret for a little while. Mo & I have big plans on how we want to present them... and possibly make a lot more. Our theme for this batch is "holiday cheer"... hence the sparkle explosion. Some of the pieces will be gifts for some of the loved ones of Mo & me... the others we are still debating on what to do. Hopefully they are liked by others as much as we adore them. xo
