My friend Cristina hosted a swap for Marie Antoinette Mail Art group called, Le Diademe de la Reine (Tiara for the Queen.) Lucky me, I was to create her crown; and the one thing I knew for sure was she loves blue...

Since it is Summer, she would need it to be lightweight for playing tennis, shuffling kids to all their activities, and hosting impromptu backyard water play

Ah, but there's still the everyday list to tackle; laundry, feeding the troops, and household drudgery (since the staff seems to be on holiday,) so it would need to be petite, yet still capture the eye of all who pass by
My hope is when she wears her tiara, it puts a sparkle in her eye, a spring in her step, and a smile on everyone's face
