Creative Anachronism in the Time of Corona(virus)

May 10, 2020June 12, 2020 / Konstantia/Constans / 2 Comments

Hi all. I know, it's been a bit since I last blogged. With the global shutdown, and with my modern job heavily tied to taking care of contingencies just like this, I didn't have much time to devote to the Society. . .until I could then devote some time to my arts, for a bit. … Continue reading Creative Anachronism in the Time of Corona(virus)

Logan’s Silver Hammer

December 10, 2018 / Konstantia/Constans / 3 Comments

Being able to work on this was truly a joy.  The work that Count Logan has done in researching banners and then teaching others, well . . . he gets it.  And his work truly is amazing. When I started researching things for his scroll, I knew I wanted to do one of two things: … Continue reading Logan’s Silver Hammer

Creating Preprints/Charters

July 26, 2018April 9, 2023 / Konstantia/Constans / 1 Comment

I live in a kingdom that does preprinted award blanks (that are then painted and the details about the recipients filled in later) for our Award of Arms level (and children's awards).  This allows our king and queen to give out awards with their persona involved in the process, and it also allows those who … Continue reading Creating Preprints/Charters

Nikolai’s Herald Extraordinary Scroll

July 16, 2018 / Konstantia/Constans / 5 Comments

  When Brigida Gold Falcon reached out to me for a scroll commission, and I got the details, I squee'd.  A lot.  You see, when I got started in the Society, I needed to work on clothing, and a friend of mine had a quiet place behind a table. The herald's table. So, I sat … Continue reading Nikolai’s Herald Extraordinary Scroll

KWHSS and yet another scroll diary.

June 15, 2018 / Konstantia/Constans / 7 Comments

  KWHSS was a blast.  I got to hang out with my brothers, the Four Horsemen of the College of Arms, picked up some scribal goodies (and yet, somehow managed to stay under budget), and learned a lot.  Plus, oh, the networking. Also, next year is in Calontir.  Come see me.  Come take some classes.  … Continue reading KWHSS and yet another scroll diary.

Time for All Things to End

May 18, 2018May 18, 2018 / Konstantia/Constans / Leave a comment

I am stepping down from my post as Baronial A&S champion this weekend (it was supposed to be earlier this year, but we ended up moving the event due to inclement weather) - so I had some time to finish off some things that I wanted to do. I perhaps was not as active of … Continue reading Time for All Things to End

Snorri’s Hammer Scroll, or how to pick your battles

January 24, 2018January 25, 2018 / Konstantia/Constans / 1 Comment

This is actually a project from last year (December!) that I've finally got some time to blog about now. I got a scroll assignment from the Royal Scribe for Damien and Issabell and I was immediately inspired to Do Something Cool. Plan 1: do a runestone. I should preface this with I was on furlough … Continue reading Snorri’s Hammer Scroll, or how to pick your battles

Scrolls and banners and joy, oh my!

September 20, 2015September 20, 2015 / Konstantia/Constans / 3 Comments

I'm going to say it, to hardly anyone's surprise: I love shenanigans.  And when my Laurel, Bess, contacted me for two big, very awesome ones, I was going to do them. My apprentice-sister Mergriet Van Wijenhorst (or Griet, as we all call her), was granted admittance and elevated into the Order of the Laurel in … Continue reading Scrolls and banners and joy, oh my!
