"Black as Midnight, black as pitch, blacker than the foulest witch!"
This witch hat is far from foul, but I can never resist that line from Blix the goblin in the film Legend. Here is an ode to dark beauty, with layers of softness all in black. The rose was hand formed from georgette, working by candle to singe and curl the edges perfectly. Layers and layers of petals flanked by downy feathers and a sugar-spun swathe of delicate tulle cascading down to reach the midpoint of a witch's back.
What better way to highlight beautiful accessories than to combine them with their polar opposites?
Moonlight spiderwebs...and crystal beetles...
...wicked elegance at Mermaiden Creations.

In dewy webs and beetles trapped...in midnight gossamer I'd love to be wrapped ;)
Heehee!
Wonderful. I wish I had it to wear to the Wearable Arts Show in Wellington NZ this week. You should enter!
Now I must watch Legend again, it has been much too long! Amazing creations, as always.
The hat is stunning and that necklace with the moonlit spiderweb - it is just ethereal! Wonderful!
Gorgeous work- I love the simple elegance of the hat and then all those extra layers of texture......divine! And those beetles? Well they might have to be mine!
