New Stuff for 2009

I haven’t written in four months.  Wow.  But then, that’s about how long I’ve been UTTERLY SICK of hairsticks.

I clearly need to diversify.  I’m investing in half a dozen books, all on different techniques, and plan to make a piece in each, even if I don’t immediately fall for it…I need to think of new and interesting ways to do hairsticks, and more than that, I need to come up with other exciting hair accessories…I REALLY want to develop a sexy/cute line for short-haired women.  And when I say short, I do mean even SUPER short, right down to a pixie cut.  Even little pixie girls want cute hair accessories, you know!  So, starting January 1 I will be ordering those six books, and hopefully they’ll have something workable that appeals to me, that I can use to develop these new items.  Hairbands, snap clips, folding clips, hairsticks, hair floaters…maybe even a few new and unusual earrings or necklaces (I have no use for bracelets or brooches so I just can’t dredge up any interest in them.)

I may even have a go at rings, after I get the 2009 supply order…I think I’ll be getting some metal clay along with it.  That should be an exciting new turn.

Once I get some new stuff on the go I hope I’ll be able to think of things to write here (and show in photos!) more often.
