Sneaky Peak
The fair I'm doing a stall for isn't that far away so I thought I would share a few, and I really mean a few of my pieces for it.
Lots of other pieces in store and also two more custom orders which will have their own post

Overnight Haul
Beginning to despise download, That said I never liked the scene in the first place. I got another order... after vowing to never do rush orders again. Foolishly I decided that - as it was a favour for a friend - I would take on the order.
The set in question was not for a friend of mine but a friend of a friend and I had only two days to do it in as she had to get them installed for download. Instead of saying no and letting her down I resolved to get the dreads finished which meant staying awake throughout the entirety of an evening to finish them off.
Which I can say I did. Now, for those that do not know I am living with my partner who - instead of going to bed like I advised him to - became adamant that he was going to stay with me the entire night because he had the next day of with the excuse that 'he didn't want to sleep upstairs on his own, he wanted to be with me.' Thus grabbing his pillar and quilt reappeared downstairs and fell asleep on the floor next to me whilst I finished the dreads.
The finished set I am happy with, it was my own blend of browns to match the girl's hair and off/creamy white in solids and candy cane dreads. pencil thin and 24" long.
The result is as follows;

Stalls
This year, I have my own stall at Birmingham alternative and burlesque fair at the end of june, specifically for hairpieces and ravewear.
Exciting stuff, myself and Cai have been working on getting everything organised and he seams fairly positive about it, more so than me. This has kick started me back into making creative hair, I had a bit of a lull with it recently, concentrating on more clothing and corsets as well as act designs but never mind.
I'm glad I have him by my side.... right enough of the mushy stuff, what can you expect from me this year ? well dreads,,,,lots of dreads. As well as hand made fringes, extensions, wigs, lox, gauntlets, Rave clothing, corsets, masks, lolita wear.... quite a lot really. Just as well I'm a fairly craft orientated person. This will be so much fun. Hope to see you there soon.
On a side note I took on two custom orders so update on them coming soon.
