Elena's Icicle Wig

I have been experimenting with making my dolls a wig out of glass beads - the "hair" and wig cap are all beaded. This is my first attempt. It's supposed to be for a fantasy Snow Maiden outfit I'm making for my Elena, and I wanted it to looks like icicles. (Sorry it's a little bright, I took the photos in the sunlight to show how shiny/sparkly it is!).

That's incredible!

It does look like dreads to me - albeit dreads made out of ice and snow

Thank you! Well, as long as it looks like it's made of ice and snow, it's got the intended look ^-^

Thank you both!

haha It took a few weeks, but considering that I only could work on it for about an hour a day, it wasn't too horrible :D It was fun to watch it grow ^-^

That's fantastic! It's totally incredible--almost like a statue or ice sculpture, if that makes sense.
