Soaking the rattan so it's easier--not easy, but easier--to slice by hand into very narrow strips, dying the fiber, then while it's still flexible weaving it into shapes.

Here in these two barrettes, woven into rectangular shapes in one color, then selecting other colors of rattan strips and arranging them artistically on the base shape. Really lovely!

These measure about 4"x 1.5". Made completely by hand!

Spring clip is attached to the back.
