Water Pipe ( eastern)- Help needed

I'm looking for some time now for a minature waterpipe.
In our part of the world its called :Nargila .I found that it's also called Shesha or Hooka.
Do you dear reader have any Idea where can I find something like that? Ebay doesn't.

  5. Hi Neomi,

    Here's a link to my hooka. http://www.etsy.com/listing/45567537/needle-felted-blue-caterpillar-and-his
    I used a chess piece as the base. But I think you could glue bead findings together for the whole thing. You could run a head pin or wire through the center to support it. I hope this helps. ~Robin

  7. Hi Neomig, I also made mine from beads :). Do you want to try it on your own? The previous ones that I have don were modelled after the Turkish pipes. And very recently , I did one based on an old tribal Indian pipe that was home-made. I will show that one in a later post. Maybe I will pop over and let you know when I do that :).

    Are those in the pics typically from Israel?
