DIY Tuesdays: Leopard Accessories
>> Tuesday, December 22, 2009
I took these photos last night and had to use the flash, which I try to avoid at all costs. I feel like it makes everything wonky. For example, my hair looks way more red-ish then it really is. Bah.
Anyways, since I had leftover fabric from my DIY vest, I thought I would make a hair bow and peter pan collar! What do you all think?
P.S. Holiday Look #6 tomorrow!
What a wonderful idea.
I find leopard print can look harsh but making a bow and a peter pan collar softens it.
I love Phoenix espacially this song.

wow that collar looks so great, it's so very you :)

Wow Maria, the Peter Pan collar is wonderful! I love it so much (well, leopard print is one of my fetish fabrics, hahaha!)
I love both! Especially the peter pan collar, because I can see that working with so many outfits.

Very nice, I especially like the bow! And you look really good in the 1st picture, even with flash :)
The collar is such an interesting idea! Would love to see how you wear it and what you pair it with. On teh flash thing, I know what you mean. But at the same times it makes your hair look so healthy and shiney, so don't worry ;)
I totally agree with you about the use of flash....
The collar is very beautiful!its so "renaissance"!
You did such an excellent job! I love leopard print sooo much :)
You are so talented and cute!! I love the leopard bow. :)
Loving what you did with your left over fabric, especially the bow! Thank you for sharing the video, that song always stays in my head for the day! Fine with me! xoxo Jolie

Love this peter pan collar, it's a nice idea of fabric recycling!! :)
Your hair may look more red, but it also looks shiny and pretty. :)
Such a nice way to use up fabric scraps. Neither of these is really my style, but I love that you're reusing things to make something that looks so fantastic on you!

beautiful job, maria! these look like store-bought accessories. i especially LOVE the collar and black velvet bow.
oh, one more thing. the flash looks good here. your photos truly are magazine worthy.
Yeah the general rule is natural light works best, but sometimes the flash makes interesting results. You look awesome, just for the record, especially that facial expression in photo 1!
Phoenix? Hell yes.
i love how you've accessorized this outfit :)
very nice.

Ooooh I love the peter pan collar!
Oh, you look darling! I love that bow so much!
I'm in LOVE with Phoenix, especially 1901. Brett used to get so mad at me for playing it on repeat for hours straight.. I just love it! Great choice!
That bow is so darling!!!
i always try to avoid using flash too, it's too harsh sometimes. and i'm in love with that leopard bow. great use of extra fabric :)
I love this bow !!
So I'm completely with you on the "not seeing people you just plain don't want to see" i think that's for the best in some cases, i know it is for me too :)
loving the bow! it's so good to be back, and to catch up! i also LOOOOVE take away shows, have you seen architecture in Helsinki's on la blogotheque? brilliant, simply brilliant.
fondly,
Claire
Love it! The leopard print gives the collar a nice edge!

amazing! i adore that collar!
I think that boy is beyond fabulous. Get ready for lookbook pics of my plaid beauty soon!!
super duper cute! i love both!
I love it so much!! The big bow and collar you did:) Its so gorgeous. I really love it a lot.
Ohhh I have an idea,maybe to could starting adding peter pan collars of different fabric to your etsy store! I think it will be really so lovely.
Love love red lips on you and also for me its the opposite,I tend to use flash too much! I guess I have to try use natural lighting more often.
Big hugssssss
These are wonderful Maria! I love them! I also think you should make more collar and add them to your etsy store! :)

You look totally adorable no matter how wonky the flash was!
And I love how the leopard prints you incorporated in the bow and collar! I've been searching for leopard print stuff too lately:)
Have a great Christmas week, Maria!!

That collar rules! You should consider selling some in your shop, lady.
