Kingdom Arts & Sciences

Sara Here: Kingdom A & S was a blast! We received a lot of encouraging feedback and smiles. Laurels left us tokens to let us know we inspire them (thank you all).

Two of the 3 of us that were at KASF were at the event with non-contagious illnesses (we are better or are on the way to being better; thanks). Our newest member, Elliot, sat and worked on illuminating their first scroll (the household poem) and hung out with friends, while Lady Eleanor utilized her combat calligraphy skills to help out Her Highness, as requested.  Sara sat and manned the table.

Once the Poem scroll is finished, we will be posting images of it along with our little household poem.

So, for now, we are preparing two scrolls for Their Excellencies of Stierbach for Defending the Gate.  Images of these scrolls will be up once awarded.

Scribaling is a word!

Per the declaration of Janna Wigglesworth of Giggleswick, our kind host/patron of the household, Scribaling is now a word within the Household!

Our newest member is enjoying the fine art of Gothic Scriptwriting and the other three of the founding members are busy making artwork (or documenting it) for Atlantia’s Kingdom Arts & Science Festival coming up in March.

Shh! Its a secret!

Happy New Year to all!

Members of the household are experimenting with ideas and techniques for playing with paper and dying it. Since they have failed to come over and play at the house, they haven’t seen what elves have snuck into the supply pie to play with (shh! don’t tell them, its a secret!  😉 ) That might be fun for our Kingdom A&S Display.

The supplies are getting lonely and our backlog scrolls are feeling neglected. Well, it is time that I quit kibitzing and go comfort those lonely sad scrolls.  ~Sara

Warning! Giggly Scribes are sneaky Scribes (and so is our Baron)!

This is Sara. Our local Baron asked me at WOW to help him ensure scrolls were assigned to members of the scribal community for his reign. I accepted and started to help out my Baron & Baroness, I get the first round of awards and get the scroll assignments to scribes to complete them all.  Phew! The Gigglesworth Academy of Scribes of Wigglesworth took on five of the scrolls to complete in 3 weeks!

My Baron (I am going to leave my Baroness blameless in this story (even though I know she is tricky in her own right), my dear friends and housemates snuck one by me.   His Excellency (I assume & again am leaving Her Excellency blameless) contacted members of the Academy to complete a scroll for me for this event. When they read the scroll and who had done it I was gobsmacked that they snuck it by me. I absolutely love my new scroll and it was a surprise to get the award I was honoured with.

So thank you to my little ‘circus’ and well played. I approve of your antics to do something special for one of our own in the house. Keep up the great work and great mischievousness!

 

 

Holiday Faire is Coming!

Tis the season for shopping and scrolls!  Some of the Giggly scribes are hard at  work making scrolls for Their Excellencies of Stierbach.  Pictures will be posted once the awards are awarded. 🙂

Pennsic War 46 is almost upon us!

Are you ready?  Some of us scribes are preparing do some last minute sewing for the war.  Plus start a scroll project or two for the War.

Time to break out those new to us books for artistic references that was recently obtained by our ringleader.
