Silk veils for sale

Hi Ladies:

as of Jul 17, I have relisted these veils for sale on ebay with starting bids of $29.99 and buy-it-now at $34.99. If you are interested, you can see them at:
http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZmoenkopeQQhtZ-1

I make these, and they are 6mm silk habotai, 3 yards X 45", fine rolled hem in silk thread, dyed with jacquard acid dyes for silk, so they are brilliant and permanent.

Colors are: Lemon/lime, purple (3 of these), firey red-gold, deep muted teal/blue (pics below)

Also bright turquoise / royal blue, and a purple fading to deep turquoise. (pics at the link above)

In general, my dying style is to achieve a random, organic, watercolor or marbled effect with the chosen colors. I usually do NOT dye the veils while they are folded or pleated, so they will NOT have lines or bilaterally symmetric blobs of color. The exception to this is the firey red-gold one in this batch, which was dyed on a pleated veil to achieve the look of flames licking up the veil. The veil that fades purple to teal and back to purple is neither marbled nor folded; the colors on this one are more or less solid colors fading dark to light with as little co-mingling of the colors as possible.

questions, please email me.

Hi Slinks:

I haven't shipped to Australia before; if you can tell me what service is best I"m sure I can. The pricing will depend on what the shipping cost. My $40 pricing is for 1st class with deliver conf within the US, which is only a few dollars.

Contact me when you want to buy and I'll let you know what I have in stock. If I don't have what you want I can probably make it.

Half circle

Hi Sedoniaraqs, Those are really beautiful veils, do you have true half circle veil in those colors? If so what, what are the prices.

Hi Yasmine:

Thank you! Right now I don't do half circles. Those require 55" wide silk bolts in order to be true 3 yd half circles, which I don't have now, plus I'm not very excited about hanging and reshaping half circles, or doing a rolled hem on a curve and across the bias. Hemming the short edges of the rectangles is enough of a chore.

I have done a number of custom orders and so far my customers have been very satisfied. I have had people just generally describe what they want, send photos of a costume to match, or send fabric swatches from a costume. I even did a veil recently for a dancer who sent me a video clip of a dancer she saw once at a hafla-type event -- that one was tricky because the dancer never stopped moving, but I got a sense of how the colors looked in motion and created depth.

Of course, I won't knowingly copy another artist's designs but I will work to create the customer's vision.

OOOOH.

I will be sending you a photo of my new dress as soon as I receive it.


Those are beautiful and I MUST have one!!!

You are an artist!

BTW... post editing -- I added you to my favorites -- you do absolutely beautiful work and if I had seen the purple one prior to purchasing my last veil, I would have bought from you definitely!
