Happy tiara Tuesday! This is more of a hair clip based on Madame Morrible. Mine is a little more bling due to the fact that I didn’t want it to get lost in her hair. It is quite a small piece in the back and hair will cover some of it up.

Gold and red hair piece with filigree and red crystals. A copper hair stick on the bottom.

Showing the piece on a flocked black skull on a black background.

Clip from Wicked showing madame morrible’s hair piece among her silver hair.

Last week’s tiara was a commission for Halloween.

The hair clips left over from Armadillocon.

A bust with three sets of hair clips. Purple hair clips with purple wings and clear green leaves, pink hair clips with pink and purple wings and flowers with gems and moon hair clips.

Happy (late) tiara Tuesday! This weekend my tiara was a bit harder probably because I started making it later in the day. I do so love a good Halloween theme!

Silver tiara with a large moonstone in the center, a skull hanging over the stone and hands on either side.

Aw thank you! I do like whimsical art.

Sara Felix @sillysarasue.bsky.social · 28d

Someone else mentioned that too!

Sara Felix @sillysarasue.bsky.social · 29d

I haven’t! But you aren’t the first person to mention it, I am going to have to read it. :)

Sara Felix @sillysarasue.bsky.social · 29d

He is on a book too! It is just really hard to see. :)

Sara Felix @sillysarasue.bsky.social · 29d

Thanks :)

Vincent Villafranca held a sculpting workshop at Armadillocon. Went with Teddy Harvia and he sculpted too. Here is mine with Teddy’s and Vincent’s pieces.

Octopus, wingnut and abstract piece of wax clay on a table in front of wax paper.

Thanks! It was a fun piece to make and a bit different than the stuff I have been doing.

Was goh at Armadillocon this weekend. This was the art for the poster, souvenir book cover and Tshirt.

A watercolor piece of blue space with four planets and a small rocket ship being piloted by an armadillo. It says armadillocon in a handwritten title.

Omg I didn’t even post my Hugo photos? I have been distracted with life more than I thought.

All the bases- a shelf with four hugos and a bronze telescope in the center. On the left is a lamp and three pictures.

@armadillocon.bsky.social is where I will be this weekend, sometimes with a tiara on ;) but you can also find me crafting with cocktails or teaching others how to make their own tiara. Or just hanging in the art show.

Sara Felix @sillysarasue.bsky.social · Sep 11

And I guess I didn’t post last week’s too! This one I liked in concept but not wholly happy with the execution. I think the silver needs to be black as some people suggested.

Silver blue tiara with rocket ship and orange.

I need some pretty in my life this week. Purple flowers with spider hiding among them.

New pendant. Trying to figure out how to add the starfield behind a rocket. It worked!

Happy tiara Tuesday! A friend is opening a candy store so of course I had to make a candy tiara ;)

Thank you Catherine. It means the world to me!

The speech I made for the Hugos in a nutshell.. I am amazed by this community and the love and support I received after our accident. The fan categories are so very important to the Hugos and should be celebrated! Last year was an amazing labor of love and I am so proud of my work on Glasgow.

Sara Felix @sillysarasue.bsky.social · Aug 17

Tiara kit for Seattle! The mid pieces for some of the different metals are a bit different but this is the overall look ❤️👑
