    Default I am not my hair...

    This is my take on Aisha Lumumba's I am not my hair. Small wall hanging, gifted to a dear friend.

    Very cute and sure to bring a smile whenever your friend looks at it. A very clever gift.

    Very unusual and beautiful. Is that beadwork? I like the way is shimmers.

    Thank you! It's a combination of beadwork and buttons. The bodice is two buttons I modified, and the earring and bracelet are beads. The top part of the dress has a thin line of beads also.
