I can't really say that the crown counts as art, but as a decent piece of craftsmanship I felt like showing it off :-) I'll justify the post by the argument that the photograph itself counts as an artwork...

It looks gorgeous with the green dress.

I love the detail, it must have taken a long time. What is it made out of?

It's made of a bunch of stuff. The crown itself is nickel silver, with raised glue and silver foil for the pattern on it (along with nailpolish for the coloured bits. The wire is either sterling silver or nickel silver (depending on which bit you're looking at) and then there's swarovski crystals and czech glass beads. Oh, and epoxy glue - I couldn't learn to solder in time :-(

Very well made and very much a piece of art in my opinion. Thank you for sharing. :)

Thanks - it was an interesting task making it. I feel I've threaded enough dratted crystals to last me a lifetime.
