First try - feedback?

I had this whole conversation with a cashier while buying a bottle of wine yesterday.  She liked my tattoo, and we started talking about feathers and jewelry making and all sorts of fantastic things like that.  She mentioned that she makes feather headbands, and I thought to myself "Hey you! You should try that! Don't you have bags of feathers to use?"
And then I told myself "yeah, yeah i do."
So I took that bottle of wine, which I refer to as Creepy Baby Wine (as it has a picture of a creepy baby on the label) and went outside with my supplies.  My end result was this:

A good first try, I think.  Perhaps it needs more feathers?

Get inspired... Vintage romance

I discovered Ruffles and Stuff today, a great blog showcasing her DIY discoveries. From clothing for herself and her child to jewelry on Etsy, she has some wonderfully inspiring pieces.
Seeing pieces like this reminds me to experiment with other mediums. Does anyone know if you can cast lace, or would that be too thin?
