Fur-tastrophe!
Okay, so about 2 days prior to me travelling to the con, I was having a serious, stress-inducing problem with my fur collar.
The fur I had brought was too short and I wanted something longer. It looked stupid with it being ridiculously short.
So, I sacrificed colour for length and got some new fur. It's very rough in this shot but I personally think it looks much better and considering what I had available, it turned out pretty well.
Tea-Stained Fur!
I've managed to buy so lovely fur fabric for Snow's collar, but it was a little too light. My first idea was to tea-stain it/soak it in tea for several hours, but I was doubtful it'd work (because of the synthetic hair etc.). Luckily, however, it's worked! It's now much more of the colour I want it to be.
I'm still planning on adding a little bit more to try on the tester strip.
Fabric
So the previous journal was so old that the fabric I wanted was no longer available at the fabric store I was going to use.
SO! I've had to resort to buying pieces of chamois leather (used for cars) and sewn them together, which I've lined out in the picture. I've also stained the material to make it look for weathered and distressed, which I've shown in the picture as well! :)
Fabric found
Found some pretty damn good fabric at the local shop so hopefully I can make a start on the leather top.
