Progress shot of tonight's project

[cupcake_goth]

Firstly, I am hoping that I am merely suffering allergies brought on by yesterday's gardening adventures, and not coming down with a cold. I am spending this evening drinking medicinal absinthe, watching pirate movies, prepping tomorrow's new GCS post, and working on a choker.

Pink velvet ribbon, narrow ruffled trim, and silver vampire fangs. Completely ridiculous and over the top. That's the point!

And what look is Pete giving you right now?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Pete is at D&D, and thus cannot roll his eyes at me yet!

[smu.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, completely ridiculous. RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME!

[bijouxdejais.livejournal.com]

Ridiculous is relative, isn't it? :o)

[pandorasbox.livejournal.com]

That is about the most awesome thing I have seen all night

I'm so choking on envy of your choker right now. So much.
(Polite translation: That is a very lovely choker that you are working on and it will look darling on you!)

Where does one even go to procure vampire "grilz?"

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Ebay! Bwah-ha-ha!

(Tho' terrifyingly enough, a friend had linked me to an honest-to-goodness fang "grilz" thing, all silver with inset diamonds on the fangs, that was apparently meant to be worn over one's teeth. I closed the browser window and fled for my sanity.)

Scary enough I have a pewter colored set like that and I got them about three years ago at Claire's (yes the Girlie Bubble Gum Pop accessory store)

Can't wait to see the SFD pic!

Over the top???
I love it!!!

[strawberry-goth.livejournal.com]

^_^ Awesome.

[ditaykan.livejournal.com]

Very, very nice. How are you attaching the fangs, may I ask?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

I'm sewing them on with pink thread that matches the ribbon. If you look closely at the photo, you can see the areas where they've been attached.

[ditaykan.livejournal.com]

Ah! I can sort of see it now, thank you.

[tinkerbell86ca.livejournal.com]

Oooooooooooooooooo! Fuzzy ribbon!

[fenrirhyde.livejournal.com]

Such an amazing choker! So far, it looks perfect!! I hope you feel better. I usually try alkesetzer and lemon tea with honey.

It took me a minute to realize that this was a choker and not a garter.

Bad Daniel.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh. Why am I not surprised. ;)

[princekermit.livejournal.com]

I blame your brother. ;-)

[sistawendy.livejournal.com]

Medical absinthe, a liquid brier patch?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Well, kinda, but I do feel much better. And it was medicinal absinthe from Spain!

[silverhawthorn.livejournal.com]

Over the top in the most sublime way possible, you mean!

[spiderpiggle.livejournal.com]
