Artist's Comments

While not in line with the LotR style of things, I've always wanted to make something like this!

It's made from most of the leftover glittery and metallic Christmas floral picks from the local Jo-Ann Fabrics that were still around a few weeks ago (when it was all very, very much on sale), a few paper roses, and with a fair amount of brass wire to hold it all together.

One of these days I'll have to make a costume to match it, in all of its glorious excessive glitteriness.

Life is what we make it, and the world is what we make it. The eyes of the cheerful and of the melancholy man are fixed upon the same creation; but very different are the aspects which it bears to them.

You are welcome.

Sorry about the glitter comment. I realise now I didn't put it very well. :stupidme: I look at at least 20 manips a day between my various clubs. I see so many where glitter is used, and it seems that either they think "It isn't a manip if it hasn't got glitter" or they use it to hide the joins between the various elements )or worse ... to hide the lack of joining!) It's great to see shining and glitter used as an integral part of a design, where it looks as tho it belongs I hope that makes more sense now ... I was actually trying to compliment you.

Don't worry! Most people I know hate the stuff, and I am perfectly secure in my love of it. ;)

In most 2d applications, though, I definitely agree with you. :)

I used a very very small touch of glitter on Arwen's face so maybe I'll be won over - anyway I'm glad you're not offended :)
