OH MY GLOB! Can you tell I am ubertastically excited for this pink hair?! I've wanted to do this for years, but haven't had the guts to until now. Living the dream!
If you are curious, I bleach my hair three times to get from black to a light enough blonde for this pink. I took at least a week and a half in between each bleaching and on the last I used a bit of toner to ensure the pink wouldn't be too peachy. I am blessed with very thick, strong hair- I didn't end up with any breakage or loss of hair, with that being said I do NOT recommend doing this if your hair is thin, wispy, and dark. Bleach is harsh and it can really fry the heck out of it, not to mention the risk of losing hair in the process. In between bleaches I also made sure to do a few deep conditioning treatments which also helped insure my hair stayed healthy as possible.
I did a lot of research before deciding to do this, one of the best references I found was on one of my favorite blogger's site, Annika. Click here for the link!
This bodice is perfect for my modest bust. Defined lines and curves, I really want to experiment with this form of bodice on the next dress I sew.
Both the earrings and the necklace I made with resin, stickers, glitter, and sprinkles.
I intensified the levels in this image so you could get a better view of the wonderful detail in the skirt. I absolutely adore the embroidered hem!
Aren't these blue hedgehogs just darling?!
My favorite place in the entire world is a field of flowers where the sun is shining.
