[lace] Hairwork (hairweaving) info and resources
Dear Arachne Friends, I had taken a short course in hairwork at a museum conference I attended several years ago. This book was the one we were also told was a good resource. http://www.hedgehoghandworks.com/catalog/BKWSD001.shtml Amazon also has this book. We used horsehair which we purchased at http://www.hitchingpostsupply.com/pilot.asp?pg=horsehair It is also used in equestrian jewelry for show horses, bows for violins, flies for fishing and various art crafts. a couple more horsehair sources but I haven't tried these: http://www.thetailstore.com/horsehair.htm http://www.horsehair.ca/ Some other sites with info: http://www.hairwork.com/ http://sohe.wisc.edu/depts/hlatc/pixelsexhibit/hair.html http://www.costumes.org/store/100pages/BOOK19TH.HTM I have 2 pieces of hair jewelry and they mean a lot to me because they represented a person's love for someone very close to them. Hair does not deteriorate because it is not a living thing and so will last indefinitely. I have a lock of hair attached to a Civil War ambrotype picture! (1860's) http://www.common-place.org/vol-02/no-02/fried/early-photography.shtml I'm sure this is MUCH more than you ever wanted to know but I hope I have helped a little. Now back to lurking, SHIRLEY PRIMAVERAnear Green Bay, Wisconsin USA where we got another inch of snow and the temps don't want to get out of the 20's. We are hoping for some thawing this weekend. - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
