Today was our End of the Year pizza party with the students at the
after school program AND the elementary’s talent show. Yeah, lots of
moving parts for all of that. So even though it was just our standard 4
hours, I am BEAT.
It was pretty good actually. We had 69 of our 70 students there.
Tomorrow is our CRAZY day (8 hour day AND the last day of the school
year). But honestly, today was pretty calm, all things considered.
I randomly came across the Ziptie Jewelry etsy shop today via their silver halo crown.
Now, I’ve seen crowns like this that cost $400+ and I’ve wanted one
for years. But this one is made of ZIP TIES. Like, are you shitting
me?
Soooo, I think I may have found my summer crafty project. I really
want to try to make one of these for myself. Just three supplies needed
– zip ties (about 100), a thin metal headband, and silver paint.
That’s it!
I was telling my husband about it and he was like “But why do you
need it?” I don’t NEED it, I WANT it. And I’m gonna make it.
::chuckles:: He wasn’t being critical, just trying to be hyper logical
at that time. ::laughs:: Once he realized that it was a creative
thing/want, he understood.
I plan to wear it for my own personal esbat rituals for sure. I’m
sure I could come up with some sort of costuming idea for Halloween
utilizing the crown as well. And I’m thinking of making a golden one as
well, to honor Sekhmet. I KNOW that the golden one would look
incredibly BAD ASS with the red kimono robe that has golden glitter
flames on it (that Jennifer K. made for me years ago).
I’ll need to get a foam head to put the crown on when I’m not wearing
it (IF it turns out well enough to keep). It would look incredibly
badass to have a silver crown and a gold crown flanking Godzilla at the
top of my altar. ::laughs:: I’d spray paint the heads black or get
black velvet heads for the crowns to sit atop.
