Here's another part of the costume. I'm uploading things as I go. :)

All told, this one piece has taken me in the ballpark of 25 hours. I really hate brass wire right now, let me tell you.

It's based off of a combination of early Celtic and Anglo-Saxon jewelry. Most of the glass beads used were made in a manner that they differ very little in appearance from beads made in ancient times. I warned you guys that I was having too much fun with this!

It's also being photographed over the undergown for the costume itself. All I have left to go is the gown itself, and possibly a veil or something.

Dork, dork, dork...

Thank you! It's been a long time since I've been able to devote time to a project like this.

I don't claim to be anything else. :)

Reminds me, I need to get my backside back in gear and get to working on my Geekdom Crown...

Because geekdom is a crown to wear with pride, after all.
