Enchanted 1: preparation

My preparation for Enchanted

It's been three weeks since Enchanted took place and I wanted to write about it but first I wanted to share things I'd made for the event. 
My preparation for the event is why I ended up neglecting my blog, I had so many things to do.

My coordinates
For my Saturday coord I had chosen to wear a vintage skirt that I bought from the sales comm. it's a music themed print and it's the same as the one Hitomi wore on the Grimoire blog so I decided quite a while ago to wear it since she was going to be a special guest.
I wanted a big headdress and inspired by one I saw by Triple Fortune I decided to create a round headdress with a veil and hat netting.
I added a miniature violin, harp and musical themed ribbon to tie it in with the skirt.



for Sunday I wanted to wear my dream dress, Mary Magdalene's Antoinette Fleur. 
It was a late decision to wear it and I was going to wear JetJ but snagging my dream dress made me change my mind. 
I decided to make a tricorn hat with a ship, I bought a cheap party hat but it turned out to be rubbish quality so I had to completely cover it in lace and fabric. 
I spray painted my ship and added tulle and flowers.



Things I made for my friend.

My friend asked me to make her a headdress to match Angelic Pretty's Honey Cake.
I decided on pancakes from the start and then planned the headdress based around the print
I wanted to add a bear honey bottle but I couldnt find one that was suitable so in the end I used Sylvanian Family bears :) 
I added cherries, fake whip cream and syrup and butter on the pancakes.


My friend was going to be wearing Angelic Pretty's Holy Lantern in ivory for the Sunday tea party, I offered to make her a headdress because I sold the dress to her and I had a few things I'd bought to make a headdress to match it. It has bows, flowers feathers, stars and a chandelier.


I also made gifts for Minori and Hitomi as well as some jewellery
I will show these on my posts about Enchanted soon.
