HOW TO ORDER: Email me and tell me what you would like me to make. You can describe something on this page, create a new vision, or email me a picture of a costume you are trying to match. When we have clarified what you want, you mail me a check or pay with paypal, and I make and send your veil. Usually I make it within a week of ordering.About silk weights: Momme, (mm) is a unit of weight. 5 mm is very light, very delicate and floats wonderfully, but is not for fast veil dancing.
6mm is my favorite weight for rectangular veils. It still floats ethereally, but can be whipped around, and will last longer than a 5mm veil. 8mm is my favorite weight for semicircles, though I will make them in other weights if ordered to!
Erin with Custom Hand-Painted Star Veil
Semi-circular veils, below, modeled by Nesmah, are made of heavier 8mm silk, and are perfect for whipping around as you dance. They are about 108in by 45in. Pairs of identical veils can be custom ordered. The large, floaty, lightweight half circles are also available on custom order.
Three stripes is a popular and elegant pattern on rectangles and semicircles.
Or you can pick colors to swirl together in wild spirals:

Sometimes white is perfect! Sometimes colors.
Trinity just happened to have a costume that matched this 'union jack' style veil. I've just figured out how to do a harlequin diamond pattern, too.
