The post office says my new veil arrived last Friday. It did not... and I don't think the Etsy seller who made it for me (for the second time; I sent the first one back to her for poor craftsmenship) bothered to insure it.
I don't think I'm destined to have this veil.
... On the plus side, I guess that means I won't be on the ass-end of the birdcage trend? *sulk*
