| Black and White Harlequinn Fascinator |
This is a recently finished project for my steampunk collection.
This little beauty took me six months to finish, give or take a few days. Not because I'm particularly slow but shortly after starting I had to move so she was packed away half finished and it took me a while to get to the box she was in. Then after she was sewn I was having a hard time finding the perfect little chotchky to make it something special.
You know what I mean?
As it happens a couple weeks ago on some random urge I stopped by the dollar store. They were getting ready to close and I had about five minutes to shop so I went sprinting through the store like a madwoman. I'm rushing, I'm hurrying when all of a sudden I caught a glimpse of something white out of the corner of my eye and I stopped dead in my tracks, the shopping cart wheels made skreechie noises and everything. I turned. I looked and a choir of angels began to sing as destiny laid a hand upon my shoulder and directed me toward the chotchsky of my dreams. A cute little harlequinn mask bedecked in black tulle! Squeeee!

I was ever SO happy to finally finish my cute little hat, I think she turned out quite lovely.
