The Tiara is a small minor tiara. Itย features large scroll elements arranged across a geometric band of diamonds (The Halo Tiara has a total of 1,000 diamonds) & maintains all the characteristics of the Art Deco movement of design that started in 1925. The gems are ofย Geometric shape, in whatโs described as a baton shape, topped by round diamonds that punctuate the points between the scrolls along the top.ย The scrolls have an almost wave-like shape on one side giving the piece a sense of movement. They are each covered in round diamonds and edged with a line of specially cut tapered square and rectangular gems. The triple line of round diamonds at the bottom complete the piece. The largest diamondโa round brilliantโhighlights the top center of design.

Hey Yโall! I know itโs been a while but life went from slow with nothing happening to absolutely crazy! So hereโs an update on life & posting!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yโall big things are coming for my family & I!
1. I passed both of my job interviews! My co-workers are so sweet & even though Iโve only met my boss & one co-worker I know Iโm going to love everyone! I just have to take a drug test & do a background fingerprint screening which happens next week! Iโm so incredibly happy!ย
2. Iโm going through a lot with family both good & bad situations. Iโll start with the good though. My cousinโs baby shower went great & was so incredibly adorable plus I got to help with set up & got to wear a cute dress that I own. We celebrated my grandfatherโs (my momโs father) 80th birthday & will soon be celebrating my momโs parents 60th wedding anniversary this upcoming Sunday! My cousinโs wife just started a new job as a registered nurse & got her first paycheck! Also my brother & his girlfriend just celebrated 1 year as a couple & they are happier than ever & Iโm so proud of those 2 crazy teens who also will be graduating high school in May 2020!ย Everyone seems to be growing up so fast & itโs so scary but so great to watch. Now the bad... My dadโs family. My dadโs family has never been kind to my dad, my mom, my brother, & I. They just have been cruel to us since the beginning of 2019 but it just keeps going like they have nothing better to do than to try to tear our life apart. I have now blocked everyone on that side of the family & will no longer talk to them or see them because they donโt deserve my time or attention.ย
3. My dad, my brother, & I bought our Christmas Tree (A fake tree due to our old fake tree finally breaking last year because weโve had it for so long)! With Halloween coming to an end, November starting up, & Thanksgiving not being far away, we started decorating for not only Thanksgiving but Christmas! Along with Decorating comes Holiday Sweets & Treats! I have finally got back into baking this month as I have not baked anything in months sadly. I was in a dark space these past few months but Iโm finally getting into a more positive space so me baking again was a great sign to my dad, that my mental health was getting better.ย
5. I go back to college in January! From June 2019 until December 2019, I took a gap semester off college after 3 grueling & intense semesters back to back. My first semester of college Fall 2018 I took 4 classes (Failed 1 class), my second semester in Spring 2019 I took 4 classes (Failed 2 classes), & my third semester during Summer 2019 I took a retake class of the math class I failed in the Fall of 2018 & passed it in the summer. This semester which is Spring 2020, I will be retaking my Spring 2019 retake classes which will be English 2 & Introduction to Humanities (Also called Art History). This semester registration doesnโt start until November, classes donโt start until January 13th, & the semester ends in May. I will be Working at my Middle School & doing school all in one semester. I will be so dead tired, I probably wonโt be doing social media a ton.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Okay yโall. I will be sitting down trying to write down a plan of how long itโs been since I did my last post & figure out how to catch up. Life has just been a really crazy rollercoaster of ups & downs lately so hopefully when life slows down, I will post & be back on! Until then feel free to message me new post theme ideas since I would like to grow my list of ideas & hear what my followers want to see! I love yโall so much & I canโt wait to come back whenever that will be!
Also new posts are up on my Instagramย Blog!ย Go check out my account!ย

๐๐๐๐พ๐๐:
The tiara began as a pile of deconstructed jewels. This known of Queen Mary to was create her tiaras using deconstructed or unused jewels. Some of the jewels of the Honeysuckle Tiara were taken off of the Surrey Tiara & plus new jewels that were bought were included in the new tiara. It was made to have an Interchangeable Graduated Center element as Queen Mary was known to change the jewels of her tiaras when worn. The Frame of the Honeysuckle Tiara was made from diamonds & had palmette motifs that lead up to a large center. The center of the tiara could be the heart shaped Cullinan V Brooch, a Diamond Brooch, a Sapphire Brooch, or a Pink Topaz Brooch.

โย Some believe that the The Gloucester Honeysuckle Tiara was one of the items that came from the estate of Tsarina Marie Feodorovna of Russia (sister of Queen Alexandra). This was believed of the tiara due toย the shape of the piece that does resemble some kokoshnik-style Romanov tiaras,
โ Some of the jewels of The Gloucester Honeysuckle Tiara come from theย County of Surrey Tiara which was also used for Theย Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.
โย The pink gemstone has been called a pink topaz, but it is apparently a kunzite. A Kunzite is a stone that had been discovered only a decade before the tiara was created.
