Today I put on the gown to see what it will look like on me. A few things still to finish, but ...yes...I do look like a granny smith apple!

I decided to remove the train. I have enough material to make a bag or something else. Finished the zippers and trim. hems to go then I'll be done. I really really like the sleeves on this gown.
I'll make the strands first, then try my luck at twisting the wire, then add the beads.
Arwen's Coronation Crown
I went to the bead store and purchased a lot of seed beads clear glass and glass with silver insides. I will use the green beads that I used on the trim for the crown as well. I also purchased some 14Gauge silver coated wire. Crown will be simple with a lot of beaded strands.
