Crossed One Off the List!

February 2, 2018February 2, 2018 / Konstantia/Constans / 11 Comments

So, remember my post on unfinished projects?  Well, I get to cross one off of the list! My Noblesse Largesse project went to a lady out in Atlantia, who stated in her dossier that she liked paternosters and the colours green and red.  So, going through my beads, I decided to stretch my carving muscles … Continue reading Crossed One Off the List!

Norse Bling!

November 22, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / Leave a comment

So, I've got a couple of swaps (Noblesse Largesse and EKAE) that I'm participating in, and I'm working through some ideas.  Sometimes, when I work through ideas, that means I do some experimentation. These are posaments, used by the Norse as an additional level of bling.  Found largely in the Birka finds, posaments varied in … Continue reading Norse Bling!

Changes around the blog

November 19, 2014November 20, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / Leave a comment

Hi everyone! Thanks to a major attack of life, I've not been updating my blog as often as I would have perhaps liked, however, life outside the SCA does trump life inside the SCA.

The surprise I was hiding was the item for my recipient for this round of Noblesse Largesse.  My recipient does Rus.  And I might have exhausted a bunch of non-jewellery options (sometimes I feel I put myself into too much of a jewellery-themed box) before I came back to jewellery. So, I made temple rings.  … Continue reading Spirals and sunflowers . . .

Where Have I Been?

January 20, 2013November 19, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / Leave a comment

I promise I exist. My mundane life has sort of taken over - but never fear!  I'm going through a couple of ideas for A&S competition that are Roman or Byzantine in scope - but I have to work through them first to see if they're feasible. Upcoming is still the tutorial on making wire-wrapped … Continue reading Where Have I Been?
