#32. White Lacy Mini Ears

A similar pair to #29 that got sold at A Little Bazaar yesterday.

I've had quite a few requests for my first pair of lacy ears so I thought I'd start with some mini ones first.

These are "learner's" ears - much smaller than the usual, to help you feel comfortable wearing some before graduating to the larger ones. Like those wheels on your first bicycle.

Product Information:
~ All Empress Dowager's New Ears are 100% handstitched with a lot of love
~ Fabric used: 100% cotton white crocheted lace on the front and 100% cotton drill on the back
~ Each ear measures approximately 7cm from top of head to tip of ear
~ Plastic tortoiseshell hairband included

Price:
~ GONE! Given away to a bride-to-be to wear on her Hen's Night. Tee hee hee.

#26. My Happy New Ears - SOLD

I made this to wear to the Finders Keepers Markets together with the matching Empress Dowager's New Jewels.

For luck. And also to play the silly twins game with Ms Carpet.

A customer fell in love with my New Ears. A really sweet older gentleman who wanted to buy them for his daughter.

I said I would make him another pair using the same piece of fabric but he insisted on having my pair.

I sold them to him after the markets.
