Fascinators..

A Fascinator is a headpiece. The word originally refered to a fine, lacy head covering. Bigger than a barrette, modern fascinators are commonly made with feathers, flowers
or beads.
In modern usage, it referes to a  woman's alternative to a hat for formal attire; it is usually a large hair decoration on a band or clip with elaborate trimmings and decoration like a formal hat and can incorporate a base to make a
miniture hat.
They can be worn towards the front of the head or
on the side.

These are my creations

You've done a lot of beautiful collages and hair ornaments. Everyone is so truly amazing.

Spring has come here to Finland, and as soon as the sun shines through the night. At night, should not be dark until August. I am writing to you as soon as possible.
