I’ve added photos of all of the newest Pirate Hair Jewels to the site. They’re gradually going up onto Etsy, and I’ll have the photos linked to the Etsy listings soon after they’re listed. Most of these strands were made with pieces from the ridiculously big bead order I got last month! Some of the color combinations are ones I’ve never done before; some strands remind me of honey, others remind me of the ocean.

If you’re without television channels like I am and missed out on any Super Bowl parties, you probably also missed the new trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Thankfully the folks at Disney are kind enough to put it up on YouTube for us to watch!

Only two weeks until the opening of the 2011 season of Sherwood Forest Faire! If you haven’t already bought tickets, buying them online can save you a few dollars. Check out the tickets page on Sherwood’s site to view prices and buy tickets online.
I’m keeping myself busy sewing away at cloaks, and I can’t wait until the gates open. Iris Adornments and Apothecary is sporting a new layout this year, as well as a new artist! We’ll have some beautiful hand drawn and painted maps by Jacqueline Shivers.
Remember to come by and say hi when you’re at Sherwood!

For the Cap’n’s new hat, Eric ordered a black felted wool hat blank. When it came in, I got to take him shopping for the decorations to be added! After purchasing a ridiculous amount of feathers and some trim that would match his vest, we spent a few hours putting these together and onto the hat.
Eric worked on the trims, while I dealt with the feathers. The top of the brim has a burgundy braided trim attached with fabric glue, while the bottom of the brim has two black braided trims glued side by side. After the trims were set, he stitched the right side of the brim up to give it a cavalier look. Meanwhile, I hot glued the base of the feathers together to make sure none of them could fall out when worn.

Medium Pirate Hair Jewels $16
Long Pirate Hair Jewels $20
Long Pirate Hair Jewels are remaining the same for now. Specialty Pirate Hair Jewels will also be increasing based on their length; short will increase by $2, medium by $1.
