Tauriel – The Hobbit

In some respects Tauriel was a really odd choice for me as I really didn’t like her character in the films! As a real Tolkien purist I didn’t like how her character changed the story but I Loved the design of the character. I used suedette for the tunic and corset, making the pattern myself! My bow was crafted from PVC pipe bent, wrapped in Worbla and then painted. The lace front wig I wear with this is my favourite wig or all time and it makes a change to not be doing another black haired character!

I wanted to formally ask my bridesmaids and maid of honour-to be to join my bridal squad with bridesmaid cards. So I had a load of fun crafting, using almost entirely things from poundland!
