Cottage dwelling designer JC McCairn creates organic antler accessories. Inspired by rustic rural, the Kansas-based artist handcrafts these hair pins. Eco-friendly and cruelty-free, the pieces are made from naturally-shed elk antlers and naturally-shed white-tail deer antlers.The antlers can act as hair combs, picks, forks, pins. Along with variation in shape and structure, the simple pieces accommodate to several different hairstyles. Hair can be simple thrown up in a bun, or wrapped into an elegant undo. Regardless of style, these whimsical accessories add a sweet fairytale twist to any outfit.
The artist outlines the detailing of each found antler on her Etsy account, which just proves that these pieces are truly one of a kind, hinting at that old-world style.
