coins and filligree

Red Tapestry

So I started yet another costume! I was in a creative rut on the others, so instead of wasting time, I thought I would start working on another. I bought this red tapestry fabric at the same time I bought the coin costume fabric over a year ago. I am going to add some coins to it, still deciding on the design. I want to wear this for the RDC Drum Circle Bash this year, so I only have 3 weeks to complete it.

Peacock

Updates on Peacock costume

seashells and peacocks....

All my shells finally arrived. I am still unsure of how I want to design this, so in the meantime, I started working on my other costume. I found a wonderful teal colored fabric at the fabric store that is perfect. (The color is a bit off in the photos)

Turquoise Bella

Anyone who knows me knows that when I go to the salon to have my hair done, I always, and I mean ALWAYS do a photo shoot. When will my hair every look this great again. LOL. Seriously! This is my new Turquoise Bella I got a few months ago.

new costume

I started making a new costume last week. I actually have 3 ideas for costumes I want to make. I planned for this one to be a seashell mermaid costume, but after looking at my pearls last night I am having two many creative ideas. LOL.
