Stephanoi
Warning: syncretism ahoy.
So, another idle fantasy project I have is to make stephanoi for Beltane and Samhain. (Oh hell, I already have a stephanos for Yule, this isn't that bad.)
Beltane - pawpaw flowers (I'll have to make those myself, there's no way I'll find artificial ones anywhere), poppies, hyacinth, lily-of-the-valley, orchids, willow leaves, pussywillow, tiger lily petals
Samhain - dried poppy heads, bones/teeth/claws, black feathers, ferns, dried red roses, bittersweet, locust thorns, amber, garnet, copper wire
