Art For Your Head "Chanteuse"

Well, "Chanteuse" has sat staring at me since last November and I have finally decided that there is nothing further that this beautiful hat needs.  I did create a hatpin to go with it, as it seems apropos and any hat that is worn at this dramatic an angle should have one.

Here are some of the final pics.  More can be seen here:  http://DreamWoven.com/AFYHChanteuse.htm

"Azure" - Art for Your Head

Art for Your Head "Azure"

About the Headpiece:

This is an exquisite headpiece of hand dyed and hand felted wool, embellished with vintage art deco buttons, matching glass beads and tassel.

Azure is perfect for the woman who wishes to make a statement. Her colorway is rich in blues/greens/violets . Reminiscent of turban style hats, she has folds and ridges. She is a regal and dramatic piece. She is one of a kind and perfectly suitable for your special days as well as a blustery day in the cold. More pictures can be seen here: DreamWoven

"Simone" came to See Me!!!!!!


She had arrived. Standing in the doorway, elegant as usual, she greeted me with the side of her cheek.

She talked of her train ride last evening and how patiently she had waited at the station. All I could think of was how the moonlight must have looked on her, glorifying this beautiful creature. I asked if she ever worried about traveling alone and she told me, "No". And in that one word I saw the appreciative glances she had gotten from every man and woman on that train.

But I knew, Simone being Simone, that she had ignored them, and stayed intent on watching her own reflection in the dark glass as she sped to see me.

The Women of Wynter

This is one of my favorite seasons. Winter….. when the air is cold. Where every gust makes my skin feel alive and where blankets on my bed are de rigueur. I awake refreshed and excited, ready to experiment with whatever the day brings. It is my favorite season, truly.

Sadly I live where triple digits scorch three months out of the year… usually more. The triple digits infiltrate everything. They suck the air away from me, they dry me out, fry me and rile me. I feel tired and uncomfortable, useless and slow. But then I wonder….

I wonder if the simmering that occurs may not be my ‘baking time’ for creativity. Months of slow boil, softening and melting. Where the juices of my ideas are blended and heated and the special aromas of my yearnings are thrown into the mix.

Ideas having congealed, lend themselves to my mind and fingers. Where the wind caresses my neck and makes my hair fly out behind me, this is where these delicacies are born. Wishful thinking coming to fruition with that first taste of cold. A summer’s fast becomes a Wynter’s delight and I am hungry now for the next creation.

And…..

This year is no different. The “Wynter Whispers” Collection is being served. Each piece holding its own. A palette of nouveau couture, paired with an eye towards fantasy and only the best aperitifs.

Please take a peek.

Until my hunger is sated, more will be added.
