Beautiful eyes… Hidden by a mask

This mask is actually not my design, it’s Zoe’s. Also made when Clio was here earlier this year.

I included Taylor Swifts song, “Beautiful Eyes” because it seemed fitting.

Your beautiful eyes
Stare right into my eyes
and sometimes I think of you late at night
I don't know why
i want to be somewhere where you are
I want to be where...

You're here, You're eyes are looking into mine
So baby, make me fly
My heart has never felt this way before
I'm looking through your
I'm looking through your eyes

I wake up, I'm alive
In only a little while... I'll cry
Cause you're my lullaby
SO baby come hold me tight cause I-I
I want to be everything you need
I want to be where...

You're here, You're eyes are looking into mine
So baby, make me fly
My heart has never felt this way before
I'm looking through your
I'm looking through your eyes

Just as long as you're mine
I'll be your everything tonight
Let me love you, kiss you
Oh baby let me miss you
Let me see your eyes
Dream about
Dream about
Dream about your eyes
Eyes, Eyes...Beautiful eyes

~ Taylor Swift, beautiful eyes ~

The dress is a “hand-me-down” from a friend. The earrings I made, Mask is a home made paper maché in the shape of the mask.

A secret Affair

Once apon a time, a girl fell in love, her name was Juliet. She fell in love with a man named Romeo. Their love was forbidden, so every other night they snuck out to see each other. They then married in secret. This worked wonderfully until Juliet's father arranged a marriage for her and she took a potion that made her appear dead for forty-two hours, Romeo was to be informed of this sneaky plan but he heard of her death, not her plan. Out of despair he drank a potion to take his like. When Juliet is revived she is distraught to find her lover dead beside her and proceeds to stab herself with a dagger….

Now picture this as a modern day story with miss Juliet as a very fashionable and beautiful girl who will not let anything get in the way of her secret affair….

New day Juliet was prepared for the troubles she would face meeting with Romeo in secret. So she disguised her weaponry as a hat. This hat was designed to kill but it was also incredibly sophisticated.

 

This hat is a favourite of mine. Made with 4inch long nails, red tissue paper all on an Alice band.
