Pink Turkish costume part 9: Fringe!

[mekyria]

 My hands have not been idle in the past weeks. I spent 20 hours on making the beaded fringe for the belt and after that I needed a couple of days to put the belt in my living room so I could stare at it in awe. It's so pretty and sparkly!  It also helps me to keep me motivated, as it will take a lot of hours to make/finish the matching bra. That's what I'm going to work on the next couple of days, stay tuned for more costuming posts.

with flash, late at night when I tied the last string off after a couple of hours of beading. The gold is more yellow in real life, Christa has seen it in daylight so she can attest :)

When you get a chance, can you humor me and take a couple photos without flash. I really want to see the details. ;)

of course I can! It might take a while though, have to wrap my head around taking pictures in daylight instead of late at night when I'm done beading/sewing.
