Sizes and Names and Woods, Oh MY!

Happy Saturday Everyone!! its snoring here, meaning its raining and snowing all at once, i hope its better where you are LOL!!

We have had many questions on our sizes and names of styles of hair forks , so i am going to try and give a visual reference here. The pictures are of a couple different styles, with 4 sizes in each picture. 


 This picture is our Mermaids Tail Hair Fork. It is a 2 prong fork, and from left to right we show our original size, which is more for dreadlocks, or Extreme long thick hair. It is 7 inch FP length in this picture. We can use the tops of most of them to make any length of tines, except on the micros which are not in the pictures.
 This is our Wave style hair fork, and it comes in 2, 3,4,5, prongs. we can also make this with wider or narrower tops and different length tines, within the strength of the wood.
This picture shows my hand holding the original size wave to give a size reference. The topper on this one is close to 4 inches across. 

I did not have a Threnody in our original size here to make a picture . That style is the one with the asymmetrical wavy top. The Jugendstil is the carved petals , and comes in 2 prong or 3 prong. We also make a cyclops, which most of our micros are shaped after. 
we also make a scooped moon top on some of the Mermaids tail tines, and we have just introduced the Dune fork. This fork is not bigger than the Threnody topper, but in the pictures it must look bigger as many of you have commented on it! we are making it in a lilli and mini lilli size as well! 

We hope this has helped, and we will get more pictures for you and be glad to answer any questions you have about our sizes, shapes or custom orders! you can find us on Artfire, Etsy, and Facebook.

New 2012 Designs are coming..#1 Dune!

Happy New Year Everyone!! 
 Welcome to 2012, and in honor of a new year we have designed a few new items that will be coming out this month...the  first one is a new hair fork we are naming Dune!
This is a carved top that has an elemental twist in it, featuring a small area on the back as well that gives movement to the piece. Each wood is going to look different, and here we have started with 3 woods.
 The wood on the left is new to our studio, African Satin Wood. It is a pale creamy yellow with lots of chatoyance and wave. The middle wood is also new, Mun Ebony. It has dark green to black with golden tan colors in the grain. Stunningly beautiful in person. The grain patterns vary and some are quite spectacular!
 The last wood pictured is Maple wood. a classic that never goes out of style!
 This is the satin wood in action, these will be available in smaller sizes, this is a lilli size fork.
 The maple wood in action...
The mun ebony wood in action.

We look forward to unveiling our next new creation very soon, and hope that you will enjoy and soon be wearing a Dune piece of hair art in your updo !

Custom Orders are Open..YEAAA!!!!

 It is so good to be ready to open our custom orders up for you again! We are very excited for the creative ideas to come flowing in and to start a new holiday season with some new designs!

NEW GUIDELINES:

We’re making a few changes to the custom guidelines in order to be fair to everyone (Stacy included). In the past our custom orders list had grown to a point where wait times for customers were very long,  and we had no time for artistic freedom, much less maintaining a decent inventory for sale. We  plan to spend part of  our available time on customs, and part on maintaining inventory each day.
We will complete each custom order before we start on a new one, and will let you know how long we expect your order to take.
There will be a maximum of 2 items per order.  If you would like to order more items,We will place your next order at the next open place in the list, and complete your first order , move through the list and then when we get to your next request we will contact you for the deposit. By making these  changes, we’re hopeful that we can move through the list more quickly and allow us to not feel quite as pressed about not having time for our own creations to continue as well as your beauties!
 WE are going to require a deposit before we begin any custom orders over $100. There is also going to be a custom order fee, that we will add into your price quote at the beginning of the order. It will be $10+ depending on how we have to gather materials, come up with new patterns or whatever work needs to be done. We do love to make extremely unusual and cool items for you!!
WE have contacted most of the people who were waiting to hear from us, and are waiting to hear back from a few people, but right now we can start on who ever gets their order in first!
Holiday Orders: If you are out of the USA and want to get a custom order for the holidays, we will need to hear from you at the latest by Nov1. SHipping is much longer around the holidays and we need time not only to make your custom pretty but also to get it to you in time, so keep this in mind!!

We appreciate you all so very much and look forward to the exciting hair toys you have been dreaming of! Love and blessings to you all
