One of the hardest things about making hair jewelry is locating options for metal closures to fit and complete the pieces I make. In Victorian times, you could get a catalog from a jeweler and order from their popular pre-designed 'findings' (jewelry term for the metal parts). There isn't anything equivalent to this service anymore, especially since this type of hairwork art is rare to see these days. All the jewelry I've created thus far has re-used an antique setting, or they've been custom-made for my braids.
So you can see why I am very excited to be able to help revive this art and offer these antique-inspired jewelry findings for hairwork. So you can finish beautiful pieces for yourself at home.
To be clear, this listing is for the metal finding only. You must DIY your own hair braids and glue or epoxy them into the findings to finish your piece of jewelry. I will be posting/linking to my suggested patterns and releasing online tutorials soon!
