Summerfaire- Flower Crowns

Postby Jobe Thaniel Steward » Fri Jul 07, 2023 1:57 pm

Flower Crowns with Nicholas!

That new Oasis is abundant with flowers - I'm sure it wouldn't harm to borrow a few?

Come along and craft a flower crown. Please post descriptions of your crown in this thread after the event - admin have kindly offered to make them for us!

When? Where?!
Tuesday 11th July
10pm UK
5pm Est
The New Oasis (Endless Desert, far NW corner area)

Is sounds fun. Have to limit to dozen flowers actually seen, or can use others?

If you want the item to be realized, your roleplaying will be in character and within the game rules.

Also, as a note for advanced awareness - these items will not be droppable; and as a courtesy to all, there will be one per player. Feel free to bring all of your own accounts, but I will ask which one wants their item completed.
So if you plan to make one for yourself and one for an absent paramour, please be aware that will not be possible; no matter how fast you type.

Thank you.

Thanks, Nicholas, for putting together this event. Thank you, Admin, for the willingness to bring our creations to life, so to speak.

A description of the crown from today's event:

Adelaide's Crown: This floral crown is comprised of three braided cherry blossom limbs tied together with alternating flax and sage at the points of convergence. Bundles of scarlet and blue buttercup flowers are stacked upon each other and rest on opposite sides, just forward of the bearer's ears. Interwoven across the brow are the purple flowers of the sage plant.

(This wouldn't be passed to anyone else, just named for backstory stuff.)

A simple weaving of greenery around reasonably pliant twigs to form a crown. It is embedded with alternated white daisies and scarlet flax.

Lavenders flower crown is made up of Cherry Blossoms and Blue Buttercups, alternating back and forth in pattern, tied together with a long black ribbon. At the back of the crown several extra ribbons dangle down of purple, green and blue

The circlet of the crown consists of lengths of plant stalks intertwined around a length of silver ribbon.
Green flax, the white berries removed, sits at the centre of the front. A red rose is set at its left, and scarlet flax next to the left.
A blue daisy sits to the right of the flax, and a white daisy on the far right.

Purple flowers with long thin petals on long branched stems are tied together with wide bright teardrop-shaped pink flowers on short stems, in an inextricable and equal tangle. A rose is bound in the center, on a small pad.

Synvasti's Floral Crown

An intricate braid of wild grasses in myriad shades of green and gold is sparsely decorated with scattering of small dark purple flowers. A scrap of rust-colored lace indicates where the braid was joined to form the crown.
I long for the song of the morning, the dancing of shadows at dusk, and the silence that closes the night.

Did everyone receive their crown?
I know we had one that was late in being taken care of.

I just want to make sure no one was missed.

Thank you for hosting and for role playing along!
