Couldnt resist making hats to match the books in the previous post. Really pleased with them.
Will also make more without the eyes and try and make them more floppy.
The faux leather book i'm really pleased with and will now make some more now i'm happy with the surface.

LOL Nikki Love the Dragon Hats and the New Book. I bet they've taken ages, all those little bobbles all over them. Brilliant idea. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the wonderful stuff that is going to Kensington. Clever little Witch. xxx
ReplyDeleteFabulous, fabulous, fabulous! I LOVE them! WOW! I don't have a favourite colour, but fantastic idea's! On my list of wants. ;o) Many thanks for the KDF details, just what I needed to know, will email you later.

Oh oh!!!! I shouldnt have looked...... I NEED these!! they are wonderful Nikki :o) I had no intention of going to Kensington on account of being almost penniless, but I think I am gonna have to now, I am in love with your Dragon hats. x
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely wonderful, Nikki! :-)
ReplyDeleteAh! The Dragon hats are as cool as the Mushroom hats...luv 'em!! Did you make a "texture template" for the dragon skin or is that all done individually for each item?
ReplyDeleteAnd is that real metal hardware on the book? I bought some like that for the doors on my castle great room but the lady who sold them is no longer in business and I do not remember the manufacturer... I really like the idea.
Ooooh drats....wish I could go to Kensington. I know I am going to the International Show in Chicago in April but Nikki won't be there :-(

Glad you all like them!
ReplyDeleteThe hardware is real on the book, just bent it and sanded to fit.
Want to try and make a clasp on another book to match.
The bumps are all done one by one and have not used a template. Takes ages but is worth it.
Wish i had another few months to get enough made.
