First of all, you look beautiful :)

Love the base you have so far. I definitely see what you mean about needing more volume on top -- from the second picture, it looks like you might be able to do that by controlling the volume in the back a bit, bringing that part up on top more? LOVELOVELOVE how the veil looks in the third picture (three-quarters angle, you looking at the camera), very elegant yet romantic; not crazy about the front view right now, I think because without the volume & without being able to see the side prettiness, it kinda looks like you just have a big piece of veil cloth sitting on your head. But I think once you put the volume on top, that'll be solved.

In general -- love where you're going with it! Looks great on you. Can't wait to see it with the hair, too.

Thanks!!!

OK, I'll try to work with the volume a little more - maybe I can prop it up at the base of the comb too??

I see what you mean about the front view. I was thinking it needed something else -- What if I put some kind of edging on it, or even little clear beads here and there (I'd have to counterbalance the weight, but...)?

This. Also, I really wonder if the front view might benefit from a sharper angle. It's fine down to your nose, and then I'm not convinced it does anything for you. I think shorter in the front & longer to the side would also probably flatter your face more instead of draping cloth over it.

the feathers are really cool, that turned out very nicely. I also love the side view & think some of the back poofiness would greatly benefit being more towards the front. I would try that and then, if it still needs work, see if the angle helps any more.

Also, I got my own feathers in, it's very wheat-coloured and quite pretty, I think you'll approve.

Thanks for sharing:) I'll experiment with the angle this week (I have plenty of fabric to play with, so at least that's not a worry ^_^).

Considering where it lays now, do you think it would work if I cut it to bring the edge closer to the edge of my mouth?

And, yay! The feathers came in:) I can't wait to see them:)
