Recently Sold

I recently sold one of the tiaras I made a few years ago. I wrote about the first one in this blog post. My tiara making skills came quite a long way. I based this on the Swedish cameo tiara but wanted to see it in blue. I also added a necklace and carrying case I made.

Quick rant: I was shocked at how much eBay charges in fees these days. Also surprised they charge the seller a surcharge on the taxes they collect and remit to the buyer's state. After being in business for myself for almost 20 years I know the state pays a percentage back to the collector. They are making a killing just charging state sales tax. Rant over.

I will say I had some fun embroidering the beads on the little upholstered top of the box. Haven't done bead work in a while. Always good not to go too crazy with them.

This is headed to the post office this morning. I hope the buyer will be pleased with it.
