There are a lot of beautiful loom weights I would love to see! (Unfortunately the website that hosts a lot of the most beautiful appears to be down rn or I'd link specific faves 😫) And this epinetron is probably one of my fave ceramics of all time!

Every lifelong Catholic I've ever met is like "I think we're supposed to give this food to poor people" and every adult convert is like "the Archon of Constantinople's epistle on the Pentacostine rites of the eucharist clearly states women shouldn't have driver's licenses."

I want the weird lil Tanagra figure hats (petasoi?) to make more visual sense to me 😂 I've seen a few attempts at reconstructions but none of them really clicked for me Mainly just this one. Some of the others I can see what they're going for but.... AMAZING fan reference here btw

This was one of my first outfits attempting to evolve the mythic Ariadne, at this point it was definitely more inspired by #neoclassical & pre-raphaelite depictions than ancient ones!

This is all I've really got right now - and I think it's pretty darn good for being slapped together from a 1$ wall hanging and a .50¢ hair clip!!! - but I'd really love to upgrade to something fancy and as historical as possible before next Summer.
