Fairy hair accessories!

I decided that my masquerade mask shop was getting too busy with fairy winged hair accessories and floral hair wreaths so I moved everything fairy themed over to a new shop on Etsy.

If you want to find my masquerade masks they are still here in Etsy.

If you want to have a stroll through a magical garden please take a wonder over to Bolshie Alice where you will find all my fairy Alice bands and flower wreaths plus my Vampire Halloween bats range, they all look so much nicer together!

I hope you love the way I have set the shops up, please enjoy visiting them both!

Masquerade masks

I have been busy making my masks and I have done some hair accessories with cute bat wings perfect for vampire/gothic/halloween fans! 

I just finished and listed this lovely mask with a music theme, you can find it in my shop

It is pearl white with a philharmonic orchestra decoupage picture and shiny gold foil edging, it ties with long grey ribbon and is perfect for all masked events!

If you love bats and like something a little different take a look at my hair bands, you can find them here!

They are suitable for all ages apart from young children due to small parts.

I have magical fairy themed ones too!

Why not pop over to my Etsy shop where you can see my full collection!

Dark Fairy Queen hair accessories

On the darker side

As promised ..here are some pics of my Dark Fairy/Vampire hair accessories

I have made them using charcoal coloured reindeer moss, black lace, ribbon roses and cute little bat wings!

They look fabulous on and are available to buy from my Etsy shop! 

They come in a variety of designs and on different coloured Alice bands.

They are the perfect costume accessory to wear for Halloween parties, Goth events and festivals.

Light weight and comfortable to wear, these are suitable for teens to adults, not for small children as they have small parts and are a delicate item.

Something Wicked this way comes!

Here is a selection of Witch's hats, perfect for Trick or Treating, fancy dress parties or wearing to the shops! :) 

This one is pre-made and all sparkly, I have decorated it with metal charms,feather and spider ribbon, it is set on the angle and comfortable to wear.

These are smaller and are pre-made from felt and I have decorated these with gems,feathers,lace and sequins ...this first one is SOLD! 

This one is all hand made (apart from the velvet Alice band) ..it stands taller and is more pointy with the took crooked, it has a feather, cobweb ribbon and a metal crow charm dangling from the point.

I have set it on the angle and it is suitable for teen to adults.

Finally ...we mustn't forget the black cat, every witch has a black cat ...these cute eats are made from real leather and have cute bows for decoration!

All items are available from my Etsy shop

Mask making for Halloween

In my last post you saw that I had started on a leather mask, I had cut out my design (my fingers were very sore!) ...since then I have wet molded, dried and painted the mask ..here is the end result! 

This is a (luminous)glow in the dark mask with a spider nestling on the side, the glow has to be activated by bright lighting :)

If you love cogs and a touch of Steampunk ..this one is painted copper and pewter and looks very dashing!! :) 

You can find all my masks in my Etsy shop! 

Halloween Masks

I love Halloween and all the effort that goes into the fabulous costumes!

I have been busy making some Halloween masks, here are a few pics for you to see what I have been up to!!

This a traditional style masquerade mask in a nice purple, decorated with hand painted webs, cobweb ribbon, feathers and metal charms, it looks fab on and would be perfect for a masked ball!

This is a shimmery black fabric mask, with feathers and a big spider nestling in the cobweb ribbon, an elegant mask with a spooky twist! 

A witch's hat Alice band, how cute? 

Set on the angle and comfortable to wear!

How about spikes?

This is a black hand painted leather look mask, encrusted with gold spikes, it ties with black organza ribbon and is comfortable to wear.

Perfect for a rock chick or punk themed Halloween!

Zombie Alert!!

This is hand painted and is perfect for men but can be worn by ladies too! 

I t even has a few stitches and a little trickle of blood, fake of course!! 

Just love this one for the men!

Someone commented that they love it because it's a little bit naughty #50shadesofnaughtiness

It is a metallic pewter and has silver coloured spikes, it will be great for Halloween or a masked ball event.

And ..last but not least is this one, I think it has a touch of "The Crow" to it, but it will be very fitting for a Halloween party or any masked event, it ties with long black ribbon and is hand painted.

So that is a selection of my latest makes, hope you love them and are on your way over to my Etsy shop to view them all in more detail! :)

My latest project is a real leather mask, I am going to make a "Devil" and paint it red with a touch of black, here you can see that I have cut out my main shape, next I will wet mold it ..can't wait, this is my favourite make!! :)

I will put up pics soon of the finished mask!!!

Where has the year gone?

This year is flying past and already we are into September, ..almost time for my weekend at the National Space Centre Creator Fair 19/20th Sept

I love this event, as all types of crafters will be there ..from Jewellery makers to electronic! 

Here are some of my latest makes, the masks above with the metal cogs has now sold and so has the bronze powertex cat just below! :) 

This mask is gorgeous and even better still in the fact that the butterfly is fitted with a flashing LED

I also love making or decorating these little hats, the little bowler hat was pre-made, so I decorated it with net, feathers and ribbon roses, it has a crocodile clip so you can attach it to your head on the angle ...looks so sweet!

I just love my mini top hat, I made this one myself and covered it with this super skull fabric, ribbon, roses and feathers, it is attached on the angle to an Alice band, is very comfy to wear and looks fantastic!

This is my summer garden mask, isn't it pretty? 

Last of all is the mini witch hat for Halloween, this was ready made blank so I have decorated it with feathers, spider ribbon and witch themed metal charms.
