"Dazzling Diva" Barrette # Nine


Dazzling Diva Number Nine is complete! I decided to take a few photos of this piece as I worked. I am finding that prices on these barrettes are going to vary depending on the length of time and amount of detail that goes into each piece. This barrette took me about 5 1/2 hours of pure bliss to create. I find myself drifting into my dazzling diva world and cannot seem to stop until the barrette is finished.


With this barrette I decide to cut out some flowers from a printed fabric and embroider the edges.

Then I added some tiny glass seed beads to add some dazzle to this diva.

A little cross stitch on her dress because of the urge to zentangle today(O:

Then I like to finish it off by closing off the edges of felt with a beautifull rich color.

    Oh I love # 9 and the TRIO one as well!
    absolutely wonderful..and that you took the time to share your stages is great! all the crafting and love from the work of your hands....and in the end...it's definitely YOU....!

    with a style that runs through all of your creations, be they fabric works, paintings....what have you.... it is all uniquely you and so identifiable! great job! that, to me, is the mark of an established and true artist!

    ciao bella!

    Hi Rebecca, for a long time I was off hair ornaments, but your work is lovely - it might just go nicely with my wild curly hair :-)
