<p>Buying from independent designers means you know exactly where your items came from, you get to speak to a real person, and most of the sellers allow you to add your own personal touch to your purchase.</p>
<p>Some of the items are really beautiful, and others are&#8230;a little odd. Take the Tech Head Fascinator on the right from <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=922X484378&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffolksy.com%2Fshops%2FHatastic&sref=rss" mce_href="http://folksy.com/shops/Hatastic" target="_blank">Hatastic</a>. Created using USB cables, it&#8217;s not exactly the usual head furniture you&#8217;d see at a wedding or the races.</p>
<p>Saying that, at least it would be a decent ice-breaker. The designer of the item was so proud of it she&#8217;s they&#8217;ve shared the <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=922X484378&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffolksy.com%2Fmakes%2F95-Tech-Head-Fascinator&sref=rss" mce_href="http://folksy.com/makes/95-Tech-Head-Fascinator" target="_blank">step-by-step tutorial</a>, so you can create your own.</p>
<p>Folksy is full of tutorials to give you a little inspiration when you fancy a bit of crafting. Just head to their <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=922X484378&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffolksy.com%2Fmaking&sref=rss" mce_href="http://folksy.com/making" target="_blank">Making section</a>.</p>
