Over winter break (which was... four weeks ago), I had some time to experiment with something I'd been wanting to do for a while.
From scratch, I made a mini Lolita hat accessory.
An earlier photograph, from after I had already made the base shape and covered it with black cloth:
I had leftover lace in my closet, which I excitedly used to embellish my hat.
Playing around with my materials, I found I really liked the soft, pink beads, and happened to have a nice light pink fabric (originally from a cake-wrapping, actually). You can sort of see a size reference; compare the hat to the spool of ribbon at the right of the photograph. I could hold the hat in the palm of my hand.
A top view of the finished result:
And finally the full frontal finish.
