Fascinating

This is my newest addition to my hair collection.  I found it on etsy at Castle Memories after seeing it on Pinterest.  I love it!  It looks better in person, of course, because photos just don't show the iridescent softness of the feathers.

Yup, More Earrings

 I bought this top pair of earrings at the medieval festival.  The bottom three are from Mirin'elle.  She came to the embassy about three weeks ago.

Patriotic Nails

 My mancurist, Olga, did a great job making my nails patriotic for Independence Day!


Tired Of The Tree

When will this tree end?  I am so sick of the nearly random greenery blocking everything else off....

Almost Sided

There's a bit more done on the sides now.  The left side is almost to the corner on the inside.


My Husband The Archer

This is Andreas' gift to himself from the medieval festival.  The bow is handmade in Ukraine, and it was the bowmaker himself who sold it. The arrows, the same.  It was, of course, not the price of a toy bow, but has a 44 pound draw and should be good enough for some exercise soon.

Dodecadone

My latest dodecagon ornament is done.  I don't really like the colors, and if it hadn't been a kit, I would have used different ones.  I still haven't finished any of the ornaments because I haven't decided if I'm keeping them as a set or if I'm doing different things to them.
