Yay!

I think I may have found the veil I want to go with. Ironically, it was on one of my mom's mannequins in her art closet. I started drooling over it and she told me I can borrow it. So, of course, I took a bunch of pictures of what it looks like with my headpiece.



My Dress, for reference




The circlet alone





This is the potential veil.

I really love this veil, but it appears to be slightly off-white. It definitely needs a cleaning. I just don't know how it will look with a white gown.

Try to get it professionally steam cleaned and see if it perks up in color. I found a vintage dress at an old shop for the Jewish ceremony (real one was Shakespearean in costume). I found it perked up after a good steaming.

I very well may.

It couldn't hurt to try. It is just steam, nothing else.

I'm not sure if it's stained or not, though. Before living in my mom's art closet, it lived in an attic.

Steaming should lift just all over dinge. You could try oxy clean or something like that.
