some of my treasures :)

went through my closet today, then through my hair accessories. i realized there is a few things that i have to find a good home for. all of them are in excellent shape - some are new and bought by me, some from trade on lhc, some are gifts. i love all of them, but they simply do not work for me. i have very slippery hair and quite fine as well, so take it into consideration... i can either swap (would love some hairforks as i am posting here 2 out of three i have, hairsticks - preferably wood - but try to tempt me with other things as well . selling - concealed cash in letters worked well before... i do not have paypal.

ETA: could not make pictures smaller for some reason. also, i have only positive ratings on lhc. i believe 5 or so...

1. selling this one breaks my heart. i have a few things from Willowthewisp (TheHippieChick) and love them all. well made, beautiful design - this one was a special order for me made with Maple and Manzanita and... some Asters. it is 6 in long and 2 in wide, has 5 prongs. holds extremely well, it is a bit too big for me and my hair (slippery and fine) spits it out. :o it comes with the original wooden box (also with asters) and was only tried on few times. the original picture

2. a set of two pins from Heavenly Harvest. made of horn, hand carved. these are squared at top. about 5 in long, top about 1.25 in wide. tried on only few times - again the same problem will not hold because of my hair type. one note - the prongs came a bit rough. it is not very bad but you may want to smooth them a bit with sandpaper (should not be too difficult).

3. QueCraft BAMBOO Hair Stick / Pin / Pick BUFFALO HORN - Hand Carved - 14 cm long. i got this one in swap on lhc. a beautiful stick - and yet again too slippery for me.

4. a hair spray - from a swap. a beautiful little toy. a bone stick about 4 in long with pearls on top. holds well, looks gorgeous. my problem - fine flyway hair. somebody with heavier smooth hair will be extremely happy though.
