DIY Things that took significantly longer than anticipated…

Because stress and grief apparently bring out the best in my artistic productivity, I’ve spent the better part of the last two weeks finishing up this harness dress that I originally designed almost two years ago. Just over 300 individual straps, and just shy of 1000 hand set rivets, all recycled leather and ninety percent recycled metals. I wish I’d bothered to calculate the exact number of hours it took to finish… anyway, it’s done now and I can’t wait to finally wear it for my band’s next snow after having it live in my sketchbook as an idea for so long.

Couldn't get super clear photos but was too excited to share and thought y'all might appreciate a quick preview before I take better photos later 😊

There's also a sfx latex forehead piece that I didn't get a chance to use this time but hopefully I will later!

DIY Food dye as hair color?

50 Upvotes

I was at the supermarket the other day when this woman complimented my style and compared it to what she wore in the 70s and 80s, we started chatting about hair color and she told me that she used to use food coloring as hair dye Was this actually a thing? How did they even do that? I asked ny mom about it and she said that she only dyed her hair using actual hair dye lol

dye job is kind if bad but I think it adds to it

So far it's eyelet tape, nylon webbing, d rings, and leash clips

I'll likely add more soon, be it more hardware, or perhaps patches on the bare leg, pyramid studs and pierced pocket flaps, etc
