Bee in my Bonnet

Here's the bee hat from my upcoming Bee Victorian fancy dress costume.  I was tempted to add more but I really think the minimalist thing might work best for this, or maybe a few long "follow me boys" ribbons down the back.  I plan on wearing the same curly hairpieces I used for the Labyrinth Ball for this.  It's a simple buckram shape I made with a pleat in it for shape, wired and covered with black velvet.  The "antenna" are feathers with all but the ends stripped off and the "eyes" are rhinestone covered disks I got on sale at Michael's.
