Little Beaded Tiara



This little tiara has been stiffened using hairspray. It wasn't stiff enough and so I sprayed it again and it made a big difference. I will spray it one more time just to see if it makes it even stiffer!

Thank you both for your lovely comments. In the past I have always covered the wires in white tape and then glued the tatting onto the wire. This time I encapsulated the wire with tatting and then tatted directly onto that. I think it looks better.

You never cease to amaze me. It is gorgeous. Do you have a special purpose for it?

This has been made as a sample for my local hair dresser to have in the bridal corner of her salon. The next item that I shall make for this corner is a veil with a beaded tatted edge and a headdress with my own beaded bridal flowers.
