Instead of powdered hair these wigs are
hand crafted with
Handmade French Paper...
Each one is a sea of rolling curls and
piled a high 36 inches tall!

Jeff's challenge was finding a way to

to sculpture pieces that look light & airy.

ReplyDeleteAnother paper cut artist I really like is Rob Ryan. Have you seen his work? He collaborated some work with London's Tatty Devine a while back. The birds necklace is so pretty & cute!
We decided to do Romantic Gothic photoshoot first this coming Saturday because Melbourne has been raining non stop and it's quite windy these past weeks.
Yes, my parents came!! Papa left early as he gets cranky if he doesn't work =) but mama is still here and hasn't stopped cooking delicious food for us. Not to mention a very clean house with fresh flowers everytime I wake up in the morning. I'm loving it...love her! ^_^
