A long-awaited project

[acanthusleaf]

Finally done!!

There were many adventures along the way, and I'll need to get some better photos - I'm having a heck of a time with the reflections and glare. But it's done! Ha!




And from a slightly different angle:



I'll be bringing this for show-and-tell to Girlie Monday. I so need a drink.

ETA: The lettering is Aldith's motto, four times around the band - Ars gratia artis, "art for art's sake" the design is based off a wedding crown from 1460.

Gah! The reflections are kicking my poor little camera's aperture!

See the nice lady's offer below? Take her up on it. Bring her cookies or beer or wine and also the new things we don't have photos of yet.

You should be very, very proud of yourself. The coronet looks wonderful.

She IS a nice lady. Have you met her?

[loup_noir]

No, or at least I don't believe I have. Punkie, remember that I haven't been active since around '97 or so. Every time we go to an event, I feel like I'm on a treasure hunt for familiar faces.

Well, all that means is that I make a note to self to introduce you at the next opportunity... :-D
