Today I use many different materials to embellish a basic bamboo and cotton hand fan, turning it into a metallic gothic inspired accessory to use with my Cicada gown Victorian costume projects! I sculpt, sketch, paint, and sequin away here to complete my first project of 2021.

Some hand fans that inspired me can be found on my crafting Pinterest board here: / crafting-ideas

But wait there's more! A PO BOX finally wahoo!
First, a disclaimer: So many of you have kindly offered to send me things, including vintage items you may have inherited, and I am so honored you would think of me and of course I do adore vintage treasures, however, unfortunately I only have so much storage space currently! So there is a chance that if something just wont work for me, or doesn't fit me etc, that I may not be able to keep all of your lovely things. Please only send things if you are okay with the possibility that I may donate items I just cannot keep. If you would prefer I put things that I can't keep into the TCH Etsy shop to help raise funds for me and the channel, please specify this in a note or letter in your parcel. Thank you so much!
