Wedding Veil: Plan B

The mantilla veil I desired is finished and unfortunately, does not look so great on me.  It is an old-fashioned romantic look and on me it just looks like a giant lace doily attacked me and is forming a lace colony on my head and shoulders.  So me and my mother were sizing it up and twisting it this way and that and bunching it up and fluffing it trying to figure out what to do with it.  I worked so hard on the lace edge, it would be heartbreaking not to wear it.  Even though mom "does not really like veils", she says it would look nicer on a comb and gathered, so that is what I did with it and it is truly beautiful!
