Peek-A-Boo in the Yarn Shop

In Scale Necklaces

I made a few necklaces that are up for sale on the DOA forums, so I thought I'd share them. I'm considering better pictures soon. Now, so far these haven't sold as well as I might have hoped, so I ask, what do you think I should do to improve them? Better pictures? Different designs?

I have a fascination with hats. I can only wear certain kinds--my head shape is all wrong for many. However, through my dolls I can make and wear any kind I want. So far I have only created ladies' top hats in a Victorian or steampunk style. I'll start with my first which is on sale on the DOA forums. I called it the Ianthe . I love this pose. Very Michael Jackson. The second hat I made was much simpler. I took some hot pink tulle and painted it black, then went with a steampunk vibe with the gears near the back as embellishments.  The third and final hat I made was for a steampunk swap on the boards. It's my favorite in a lot of ways, but it was given to my partner in the swap. I did manage to get these pictures of it before I shipped it.
