Final photos

So I started wanting to do something with my hair

I was going for this:

I got close- If I was willing to play with it some more I think I would have gotten it but I think I was close

Underwear

Layer 2

the dress and accessories

you can see the jewelry box and banner I also made during the challenge

With the black veil

with the cloak and 2nd drawn thread handkerchief

and parasol

with zibellino and gold veils

with the 1st handkerchief and rosary

my favorite because you can sort of see the miniature of my son Neil in the costume I made him to look like Henry VIII's son Edward

For fun:
