Summer headdresses
Sorry for the long hiatus! Here's some of the newest headdresses I've been working on. And for those in the New Orleans area, 12 Mile Limit will be featuring some of my headpieces as part of their "Wig Out!" event this coming Tuesday (July 21). Check it out!

Spring Headdresses
A new batch for Fifi Mahony's. I've been playing with some new flower techniques, as can be seen in the first one. I love how three dimensional it is. Also, I found an amazing Indian textile shop online, and went a little crazy. But it worth it, because now I have incredible, elaborately embroidered trim and appliques to last me all year.
