Crown for a Princess or Queen

I really love crowns. I remember as a child my family subscribed to the kid's version of National Geographic for my brother and me to enjoy (I can't remember the name of it--it will come to me eventually). Anyway, they had a small spread about the royal jewels of England and Russia. Talk about beautiful! I was smitten! Little did I know that years later I'd be able to view the crown jewels in London. Such sparkle! They were breathtaking! Well, all that to say that I've finally stitched up a little crown charm which I'll place probably today on my eCrater site. It features mirrored glass tube beads, glass "pearl" beads, and three Swarovski crystal "emerald" beads--perfect for the princess or queen to clip onto a zipper, purse, button hole, etc. Although the background looks a little green here for some reason, it is actually stitched onto an off-white background. It really glitters in the light. I hope you're smitten too. ; )
