Horns

I made these a while ago and they're due for an overhaul, but I thought that, as I have two photos to hand, I might as well post them.  Constructed from circles of corrugated cardboard strung onto a folded length of wire with spacers in between, each 0.5mm different in radius, curved around, coated with plaster-of-paris fabric and smoothed with an extra coating of plaster, then stained with tea and mounted on a wide hairband.

If anyone has any more photos of these, I'd love to have them.

 At a steampunk convention with Scary, hideously hungover, taken by some passing photographers.  Scary doesn't normally have sideburns like that...  

Late-night costume prep pic - fear the effects of the pirate corset coat.  Which I really should get pics of.

Papercut note - mixed flowers

What are you supposed to bring to an engagement party?  I went with a note...  Well, went overboard with a note.


1 sheet of A3 + ikebana image search + a craft knife + several hours = a very fancy note.


Was really happy with the way it turned out.  Didn't have any coloured paper to back it with though, so went with a dark blue napkin at the event.  


 The recipients seemed very pleased, and say they're going to get it framed.  Woot!
