veil pins

AMA Question #1

March 19, 2017March 19, 2017 / Konstantia/Constans / 5 Comments

Space_wolf asked: How do you keep your veil (particularly the outfit you wore when stepping down as Gold Falcon Principle Herald – https://kaloethina.wordpress.com/2016/03/29/gobsmacked/) in place, or do you just accept that over time it might shift / slip? Also, before I start answering this question - go to her blog (which I've linked above)! She's … Continue reading AMA Question #1

Queen’s Prize AS XLIX

September 15, 2014November 19, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / 5 Comments

Over the weekend was Queen's Prize Tournament, which is a time for Calontir artists that do not already have a Grant of Arms or above (so, Laurels, Silver Hammers, and Calon Lilies cannot participate as an entrant) to make something and get feedback from judges. I've been making glass-headed pins since I got my Hot … Continue reading Queen’s Prize AS XLIX

Pennsic Largesse Roundup!

August 7, 2014November 19, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / Leave a comment

For the second Pennsic in a row, I've been asked to contribute something to the Pennsic gift basket.  This year's recipient was Caid.  Conveniently, Knowne World Heraldic and Scribal Symposium was also in Caid!  So, I had a mission in addition to the classes I taught - I had to figure out what Their Majesties … Continue reading Pennsic Largesse Roundup!

EKAE Swap #5

June 9, 2014November 19, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / Leave a comment

I just got done with the latest East Kingdom Artisanal Exchange, and I have to tell you, this one challenged me a lot. To be fair, my Laurel did lay down a couple expectations about doing something a bit more . . . involved . . . than my last few swaps. So I did … Continue reading EKAE Swap #5

Gulf Wars Largesse

February 4, 2014November 19, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / 6 Comments

This year, I was requested to make something "kickass" for a largesse gift basket for Their Majesties Calontir to give to their recipient kingdom.  It didn't have to be big.  But it did have to be neat. So, given that my mundane job has taken up much of my spare time (I'm actually writing this … Continue reading Gulf Wars Largesse

Calontir Wiki and more!

January 26, 2014November 19, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / 2 Comments

So, Calontir has started a new wikispaces project.  I jumped on board, and now I have a wikipage.  I hope to update it soon with examples of my jewellery and scribal and other bits and things soon. You can find it here: http://calontiri.wikispaces.com/Konstantia+Kaloethina I'm also in the middle of a largess project for Gulf Wars.  … Continue reading Calontir Wiki and more!

A Panoply of Scrolls (and other things)

January 14, 2014November 19, 2014 / Konstantia/Constans / 4 Comments

I've been juggling a couple of things lately, including three scroll commissions from the outgoing queen of Calontir, and learning how to use my new lampwork torch.  I also entered a blank border contest. So, after my trip to the Middle East, I was inspired by the many, many, many Qu'ran pages I saw at … Continue reading A Panoply of Scrolls (and other things)
