Project level-Easy

Project List
String-strong enough to withstand bending and small enough to fit beads through
Beads
-dice
-wood
-acrylic
-metal
-glass
Acrylic bead flowers
Tassels
O-rings

This is an easy way to use up those left over scraps from projects. I played with this one night. Even though I have done these before
previous blog on bead hair falls
people.tribe.net/erikaschi...f071f585de
I wanted to keep playing with this idea.
I was also inspired by Lasair's Hair doodles
tribalcostuming.tribe.net/photo...b915c5

I just strung beads after tying off the the tassels at the end. Tied knots and then strung some more. I added some leafy acrylic beads and I thought it looked kinda like fairy wings. Tied loops on the top and thats it.

For vendors of hair falls
go to this link and the bottom has a list

My Testimonials

May 2, 2008
I have yet to meet Erika in person, but I can already gather that she is a sweet creative woman. She runs a business, but still finds time to enlighten us with her DIY projects (which are wonderful by the way). Thank you for always helping me when I got stuck on a project. Stay sweet and take care. Love ya!

Erika has some amazing DIY projects, with amazing results. I love her costuming, her use of colours and how she puts it all together. I also love that she has a Hugh Jackman fetish. I love him too. *smiles*

Finding one of her DIY projects on tribe, I looked into Erica's profile. Not only is she an interesting person, but she has a lot of GREAT ideas for belly dance costumes! I love her fascination for 'Wolverine'(which is obvious from her photos) but I love that she really gives great advice and seems to want to help. Go Erica! You Rock!

10 yard Tiered skirt Information

I will be making and selling colorful 8 tiered skirts.The hem will have 10 yards. I will post them on etsy.

They will be made from cotton,lurex and brocade. Each one will be different and unique.
They will be like my patchwork skirts I make for myself. I make them with an elastic waist and each skirt is sewed and serged. They have many tiers with patchwork.
Can be used for practice or as a costume piece.
Skirts must be dry cleaned due to the brocade fabric.
Serged and double sewed on each tier. Each tier has 3 to 5 rows.Three tiers total.
I even have decorated stitching on the two upper tiers.
$70.00 dollars each does NOT include shipping.
Jack's Love will be 100.00 due to more expensive extras on it like lace.

I will have the following colors:

1.Green/Blue(Irish Summer)
