Hoop Decor Ideas for BM 2011

I want to get started this year on making hoops for BM 2011. I have this idea but I don't know how much it would fly with the hoopers of the world. I want to make a hoop with leather tassels coming out of it like the metal joints come out of a fire hoop. I've already made a few "streamer" hoops that follow this principle (see attached). The only bad thing I can think of is that it might be like a whip instead of giving passer-by's "hoop kisses."

Does anyone have any new decoration ideas for their hoops for the new year?

My hubby wants to make a steampunk hoop with leather wraps and metallic studs all over. I haven't started this project yet, but it sounds pretty awesome! I'll totally throw down some leather hooping.

How fun! I love it :)  The whips will be popular out there!

 

and the Steampunk idea is badass Sirin, I might take that and make it my own :)

 

 

The fuzzy hoops would be fun out there!

I drilled holes and atached them from the inside. Its time consuming but it looks fabulous! I haven't made some for months. Reading this post makes me want to make some more though :D

So you drilled them and attached them from the inside? Can I ask how you did that? I know I really wanted to make a friend of mine a memorable hoop for her for Burning Man and I think this would go over REALLY well with her! :) If you don't mind sharing a step-by-step of how you did this, that would be awesome! :D

I'm sorry to say I cannot help with your dilemma but just want to tell you that the hoops in your image are all gorgeous!
