A new line in the works...

Working out the kinks in my new casting studio has taken a considerable amount of patience and effort, but here is a glimpse at what's "flying" out of the flask these days :)

No real butterflies were incinerated in the making of these future hair ornaments! I sculpted each and every one of them in wax down to the last fiddly antenna and cast them in nice durable pewter.

I plan on keeping some plain and painting some realistically to create headpieces for all the spring and summer weddings coming up. Maybe wearing them will help counteract the wedding day "butterflies in your stomach"!
