Steampunk hats

I had a Mad Hatter's inspired party that required an outlet for all the creative impulses I wasn't able to indulge after breaking my arm, which is where the hats come in. Inspiration came from a number of tutorials, including here and here.

Gathered fabric flowers

In the continuing forays into hair accessories, I tried my hand at fabric roses, based off of the tutorial here. Mine weren't nearly so well put-together, but I think they worked out well.

I added some lace to the purple flowers and sewed a bit of ribbon on the back of each flower so I could attach bobby pins.

The flowers in a Gibson Tuck.
They were exceptionally easy and very quick to make, only five to ten minutes each, so I'll definitely be making more.
