Ok, so I failed on December’s challenges — blame cancer & trying to get my life back together after chemo. Blah blah blah, sick of excuses & sick of being sick! But that’s mostly behind me now, so onward & upward. We’ll take a month off from accessorizing & start the new year with all new challenges \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

January 2014:<\/em>
\nHair & Wigs<\/strong> \u2013 Style a wig, hairpiece, or your own hair into a historical style to suit your outfit.<\/p>\n

February 2014:<\/em>
\nJewelry<\/strong> \u2013 Bling it up! Add some sparkle to your ensemble with necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, & more.<\/p>\n

March 2014:<\/em>
\nGloves & Mitts<\/strong> \u2013 Elegant or practical hand coverings have been used across time.<\/p>\n

You can always check the main Accessory Challenge<\/a> page for updates & details on how to play along, who’s participating, & more.<\/p>\n

I’m excited about these three challenges because they’re some of the most fun things to make! Hair & wigs can seem hard, but once you get started, you’ll find they’re very satisfying & rewarding. Jewelry is dead easy to make, it can be amazingly inexpensive compared to stuff you buy pre-assembled, & you can turn out things that look spectacularly historically accurate. And gloves or mitts, well, those can be as complicated or as easy as you want — feel free to start with vintage gloves & deck them out, it’s a fabulous way to get a period look too.<\/p>\n

Here’s to a new year filled with cool new accessories for all!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
