Show Us Your Accessories! <3

Everything on here is so lovely, especially the hair accessories, but then I am a bit nuts with hair. ;)

OMG I'm in love with the skirt!!!(and still dying to get shoes like this! But my feet hate ballerinas :( )

Oh and i'm trying to make my first pair of seeweed earings, bu I can't find the pearls on a tread. Can I get it anywhere online?

Updated my shell top with fake starfish :)

Thank you! :D <3

Wow, people have really beautiful accessories!
Here are two of mine- not as stunning as the jewelry, but I'm a practical kind of mer :D

Attachment 12466

The belt used to be a fugly all-black scuba dive belt.
It's now dark green, with stuff sewed on, and neon green netting to let the water flow from the three compartments.

The bag is a really tightly woven net, which I usually attach to the diving belt.

I also have lots of necklaces and armbands not photographed yet;
my resources to make them are a bit limited though, since I won't use real animals.

crafting like crazy over here! Please check out what I have? http://mernetwork.com/index/showthre...GHT-IN-THE-NET

anyway, here is a matching headdress and necklace I've been working on:

http://mernetwork.com/index/attachme...4&d=1346694680

I'm still working on adding more crystals and pearls to both, but the headdress is tricky because the chain mail links I have are just a tiny bit too thick for anything to fit on properly.. so I'll have to devise a new way to attach them. I've been making it all up as I go, never worked on jewelry before!

I love that headdress. I've always loved circlets a bit more than tiaras.

I kind of want to put pearls on everything :P

---

I agree about the pearls. I'm more drawn to pearls as being part of my future accesories than any other decoration.

Pearls...they are just so elegant, beautiful and yet oddly simple in design.

Here are some pics :)

Wow! I love those far more in a top than average shells!

Beautiful stuff everyone! Those are awesome fake starfish; they had me fooled. Where did you find them? I have been looking for a source but can't find any :/

My current new clip. ( I will be selling the big one from a previous post. :-P )

The one in the back is my personal clip and the itty bitty one in front is for sale. I just can't find a picture of the one by itself.
