AoB Inspired Super Awesome Hair Stakes
I am totally obsessed with Ascendance of a Bookworm. Because of that I had to make these hair stakes inspired by our favorite book crazed gremlin. The colors are dark and light blue and gold to represent both Rozemyne and Ferdinand's eyes and hair. There are 4 charms representing elements that had come up by the end of part 3. The Harspiel, inspired by the real life Bandura which is a traditional Ukrainian instrument. An open book with a quill in front. An open book with Bookworm above. Finlay a flying red panda bus.
The Total Length is about 12 7/8" long (length of sticks and tassel)
The stick is 9" long The color of the sticks are a light yellow with golden flowers for the top 2/3 while the bottom 1/3 is natural bamboo
The Tassel is about 3 7/8" and is comprised of 3 beads, 2 charms, and a pewter 12mm filigree ring.
Beads- The 2 on the bottom are an acrylic Light Blue flower and a small Amber glass roundel. The beads at the top are a Dark Blue glass coin.
Charms- are made from Thermoplastic and the art is hand inked onto each charm.
I over engineer theses stakes so they don't catch in your hair. What that means in detail is I counter sink the eyelet into the stick so there is no gap for your hair to get caught, for added security I E6000 the eyelet into place. The Bobble and Stick are connected with a split-ring; basically a miniature key-ring, once again so there is no were for your hair to get caught. And I wire wrap the beads and charms together. All this means that your hair should not get caught in the charms. It also means that it is very securely put together.
