I R CRAFTY LOLI
Jun. 30th, 2007 10:34 pmI R CRAFTY LOLI :D
So, the other day, I was flipping through some gosu-rori mooks, and I thought, Hey, it would be really great to have a bonnet to go with my music note jumper :D The one in volume 8 has three pin-tucks on it, just like the tiers of the dress, so how perfect is that?
Well, I can't finish it yet. I need interfacing. BUT, I needed to visualize how it went together, so I cut out the pieces from some crazy south-west themed fabric I got from a friend (which look scary-good together O_o; ), stitched it up, pinned on the proper bows and ribbons, threw on a wig and took some pics to see how it looks :D
Now, please to be keeping in mind that these are without flash and my camera gets really blurry with no flash. Since I have no hair left, the bonnet looked pretty silly. So I'm wearing a $10 halloween wig I purchased YEARS ago that Nicole is going to kill me for ^^; But I did brush the visible parts at least, which improved it 600%. I've decided that I'm going to wear a wig for EVERY loli dress I wear now; not only is it nicer than my real hair (when I still had lots of hair), but it makes it SO MUCH EASIER to wear headdresses!! They tie down under your chin without having to go behind your ears and be all itchy!! Next mission: acquire loli wig!
I shall be very pleased when this is done :3 It's going to be super-cute!

I'll have to keep an eye out for some cute loli-ish wigs for you. Just in case a gem pops up somewhere. Any particular colour?
