Crafty

I mentioned, a couple of posts ago, that I made some celtic knot barrettes. There was some interest expressed in seeing them, so here they are:





I think this one is my fave:




...and all four.


These were actually an experiment - something I hadn't tried before. They are made of paper and coated in polyeurethane, glued to french barrettes. I'm happy with how they turned out, so I think I'll make more.

  2. You should be selling these online or at RenFair for much loot. People WILL buy these. If possible, reproduce the print and sell en masse.

    Now!

    Mike - Yes, you may call me Celti. lol I'm getting a ton! It's pretty wild.

    Spirit - Welcome & Thanks!

    Denny - thanks! I'm actually considering it.

    Michael - I'm wearing that one today. :)

    Omega - Thinking about it! thanks!

    Just Me - No idea how much I'd charge. How about I make one for you? Gold or Silver and what's your fave color?

    Vicki - thanks! The bigger ones are about 3" and the tree one is about 2 1/2"

    Jas - thanks!

  6. I'm going to agree with everyone and say they're great because I know you're talented. Unfortunately, my browser won't bring up the pictures. Maybe it will play nice tomorrow.

    However, if they're as cool as everyone says, I might be interested in commisioning one for my wife. She's always wearing barettes to pull her hair back and it would be nice to get her something different and unique.
