LOTR-lovers!

I also plan to learn Tauriel's hairstyle for DoS and just because I like all of the elves' hairstyles, they're so simple and elegant Thought I'd post an image I found the other day that really gave me the inspiration to choose Tauriel's hair:

That's LaDollyVita33! She's awesome and her tutorial is really easy to follow.

Anyone else have any Tolkien inspired hair sticks? I have like 4!

I'm afraid all of my Tolkien-inspired sticks are actually swords, with one exception! I have Orcrist, Sting, Legolas's White Knives and Strider's Elven dagger. The exception is my custom Shadowfax/Rohan hair fork from GTS. I've been hankering after set of NightBlooming's stunning Simbelmyne hair pins along with the matching hair stick. So gorgeous! I will eventually get them.

Oooo! It's beautiful! I get a very Woodland Elf feel from it.

Here's my collection of LOTR/Hobbit goodies.

This was a 'cram all my swords in my hair at once' experiment. With the exception of the really long Narnia sword, all of them are LOTR-related.



My custom Rohan horse fork from GTS. I call him Shadowfax.

I think I was still working on my post when you posted your pictures. Whoops!

Adore your Evenstar stick! Every time NightBlooming puts one of them up, I have to exercise extreme self-control to not snatch it up then and there.

Legolas's White Knives and Strider's Elven dagger are both from United Cutlery and are hard to come by these days. They were part of a miniature sword line that was released during the initial LOTR movie era.

Orcrist came from the Noble Collection and I can highly recommend them for hair swords! They make quite a few LOTR/Hobbit sword letter openers and they are perfect cause they're not sharp, so no hair worries. They tend to be pretty long (between 8-9 inches, possibly longer) so beware if you don't like big, look-at-me pieces. (Though Sting is probably comparatively short.)
