BONNET OFFICIALLY DONE!!! loving how it looks with the dresses, i feel like the belt adds an extra 1830s touch to the outfit which is appropriate. though of course historical accuracy wasn't the goal

(close-ups + "before" pic of the hat under the cut)

#outfits to hook up with anne lister for one night and immediately part ways because i'm not rich #every time i finish one of these flower things i go “phew that was overwhelming. not gonna do it again”#then some time passes and i go “okay but i Need 4 more of these. and twice as big”#though this time the hot gluing wasn't as tedious or time consuming as painting the god damn roses #but yeah otherwise it was fun!! the construction was fun the sewing was fun #the fake straw was a fiend i wonder if real straw would've treated me better #and the tutorial made it look way easier than it was for me but i did choose to measure and pre-cut stuff so some of it's on me #mari makes #mari looks #bonnet #crafting #diy #upcycling #millinery #hat making #vintage fashion

I was recently inspired to get off my ass and start embroidering again and I’m super excited because I’ve missed it a ton. Mom let me look through a bunch of Grandma’s embroidery floss and I grabbed anything that was DMC (and thus I could definitely get more of) and I’m currently putting the new ones in my box of colors.

there's a dnd event this month that i plan to attend so i made some goat ears to go with my horns to let people know i'm a satyr and not a tiefling lol

#gonna be coughing up fake fur fibers for the rest of the summer (yes i did wear a mask)#a bit too plush toy for my liking but they are cute. but i don't see myself wearing them often. but learning new crafts is always fun!#may make a tail to go with these too if i have the time but i've had enough of this damn fur for now #mari makes

won't have time to take selfies before tomorrow's lewis carroll themed historical dancing party so here's the costume preview!! i'm a card

"oh i'll just throw together a costume from the things i already have" *makes the shorts* *makes the hat* *makes the tights* *makes the rose pins*

#going as a follower and making every guy who invites me for a dance subtextually gay #(which i think they'll sense. i don't expect to be a popular choice. which may be for the best considering my stamina)#oof these clothes are gonna get so sweaty. but it's fine #mari makes #mari looks

guess who's still chipping away at that vertep project... mary and joseph are all done! (ft. matchbox for scale)

(i know blue is more traditional for mary. i just happened to have ribbons and silk in pink)

#they (me) did goldwork on a grape. and beading. and embroidery. uh. i did my best #chort and witch next!#ugh maybe i should invest in like a light and a tripod for taking pics #mari makes

she is..... done, i think? looks kind of plain but to be honest i'm also pretty done with chainmailing for the time being lol

i had planned to follow a more interesting historical pattern for this with gores and such, but had to minimize the number of rings on the outer perimeter in the end because the v-shape doesn't look as nice when it's not strategically stretched out

#*makes an extravagant accessory that's pretty much unfit for casual wear* idk too plain for my taste :/#would love to add like. a zigzag edge. like a jester's collar vibe. alas it would mess up the tension and look floppy #and i'm not sewing a lining for this #maybe i'll go the pinterest route and add shoulder chains some day #mari makes

costume event coming up so i finally dolled up the holster i got months ago, hehe

*i bought a bunch of stabilised moss way back and have since learned it's bad to buy stabilised moss. don't buy stabilised moss

#'oh i'll just stuff a bunch of dried florals in there it will be a quick and easy project'#(spends the entire evening strategically shoving rosebuds and alder cones around so they don't get covered by the straps)#mari makes

off to another con! and with fresh horn doohickeys, too!
