Well, you haven't heard from me in a while! I've been insanely busy trying to keep up with orders, get ready to take a few weeks vacation in North Carolina with my family, and organize and condense my gobs of craft stuff so that it fits in the front closet, so that I can turn my craft room into a nursery.
I've also finally managed to train my friend on making the cowrie braids. I was immensely pleased and somewhat surprised to see that she is just as picky as me - I picked up a bunch of them from her just the other day, and each and every pair was perfect, and it felt great to think of all that work that I wasn't doing myself, lol. Oh, and I've dyed 3 shades that aren't on the website yet - burgundy, dark teal, and dark purple. Pics coming soon!
My sister and I are going to be working on bra and belt sets. We will start with the simplest first, so she doesn't get bogged down -

there's the original sketch of my design. Bra will be bikini style halter (not triangle) top with soft cups, and they will be available undecorated in all the fabrics that match the pants.
There is going to be a change in time for custom made costumes. I'll keep my time for hairpieces down to 1-2 weeks, but larger items like pants and renaissance stuff will now take 4-6 (which seems to be the standard elsewhere) instead of 3-4. I will do my utmost best to finish with the orders I've already gotten within 4 weeks, and if you have a performance that is at least 4 weeks away when you order let me know and I'll probably be able to fill it.
While I'm in NC, I will still be doing any headdress orders, and I'll also bring the fabric to make any orders I recieve prior to leaving. I'll be back within 4 weeks, so I'll be able to finish with any orders I recieve while there upon my return. Just keep in mind that rush orders are not available for the month of September. Thanks!
Ooh, by the way, my sister and I and our friend are going to a renaissance festival later today, so we'll be sure to get lots of pics and post them!
Happy dancing everyone!
