Tabitha, both the hairstick and the bun look awesome. But you already know that I adore your hairtoy taste and collection
After seeing the lovers hairstick I had to ask Doug about one for me. I love gingko leaves so much and he accepted to make my a cloe style stick out of holly with gingko inlays made of malachite and a band of malachite at the end

Wow Tabitha, that is a really impressive, beautiful stick in a nice bun!
Beautiful stick, Tabitha!
Hah, that's funny -- I've asked Doug for something very similar, only mine is yellowheart with a leafy vine inlay in malachite. Great minds think alike!
Mine isn't a Chloe style though, but it does have design elements that are similar. We'll see how it goes.

Thank you, trollkjerring (and the same goes for your collection too! ) little acorn, Tangerine and Wavelength!
Neoma, I'm glad you had success with that bun!
trollkjerring and Wavelength, both of those ideas sound absolutely gorgeous and I look forward to seeing them when they come to fruition - I think a leafy design will lend itself very well to Doug's technique. I'm sure he'll do an fabulous job with them - he is so talented!

I just wanted to update that Doug and I are still collaborating on a design and I also inquired about a custom "lovers" design...
I guess I decided what I want for Christmas!

Neoma and Tabitha: Don't worry, when the stick is finished I'll definitely put up pics! Right now it's still in the planning stages.

Looks like Doug's getting busy! I hope it's not inappropriate for me to copy and paste this announcement from his Etsy shop:
He deserves to be successful, he is so nice to deal with and does such amazing work.TimberstoneTurnings's Shop Announcement
********** NOTICE **********
Effective 12/2/2009 we can no longer accommodate custom design requests until maybe after the first of the year. We're happy to customize any of the existing hair stick styles with selected woods and gemstones, however new design requests will be put on hold. With the Holidays approaching, and inventory which needs to be maintained, all combined with the fact that I have a "real" full time job, there just simply aren't enough hours in the day for me to dedicate much time to new design requests.
