Did I forget to mention that I got married in September 2013? Well, I posted about the props we made for it. 😛 I posted our wedding on Offbeatwed.com because I was on their site almost daily looking for ways to be wed outside the box. It’s a lot harder than you might think! Here’s […]
I’ve always loved this sword even though I can never get very far with a Death Knight. Update: Completed in time for the wedding!

For our wedding, we are crafting weapons from World of Warcaft (since WoW is part of our theme). This is a Druid staff called Journey’s End. Since I will probably never ever get one in-game, I wanted to make one for the wedding. This is the beginnings. I made a foam core profile as close […]
