You should make a tutorial for making them. They are wonderful.

You really don't see many girls dress like you or Emilie Autumn down here in Dallas, which sucks or if you do it's very very hard to come by. There is no real gothic, punk, Heavy Metal, or rock scene here now days. It's a lot of EMO and R&B crap.

Tee hee, I made these sooo long ago, I barely remember! Lesse *thinks*

I used thick wool yarn which I then teased and rolled in my hands to give it a more organic feel. I then braided it together including and weaving in bits of beads, coins, etc. At the top, I attached them (gluing and then sewing for extra reinforcement) to huge hair clips which I then camouflaged with large silk flowers.

Nothing too snazzy or complicated, but the flowers hide the clips very well so with a scarf covering your normal hair they blend right in.

Good luck!

Yup. Big clips covered by flowers. Epoxied and hot glued on...

Thanks!

These are just yarns with stuff braided and woven in. The fake hair falls I leave to the pros. I can recommend someone who does great synthetic hair falls if you are interested.
