The rest of the costume shiny bits

 Hello, everyone.

The remaining shiny bits for the Sailor Moon costume are in recognizable order. All that is needed is to attach an elastic to the sides of the tiara so it will stay on.


The earrings are clip on. There is some wire wrapping going on there and some jump rings, plus the found clip-on backs.

The tiara gem is a little more complex than some of the illustrations, but I think she will like it. The elastic band will attach at the loops on the sides. 

The Mylar wrapping foil behaved this time, probably because it has gold tulle over the top. I sewed the tulle on at the back to pull the foil edges around to the back instead of trying to stitch it. (Gluing the edges didn't work, they were cut too close to the size of the tiara base structure.) The stitching of the accent rows along the edges went smoothly. The main gems are glued in place, the other accents are all sewn down. The little red bobbles at the top corners are seed beads.
