I met up with Emily Zych, a.k.a. whichgoos e, deep in the magical forests of Maryland, where she finds twigs and vines for the fanciful crowns she makes. This wood nymph's delightful creations are inspired by Greek mythology, pagan folklore and expressive Romanticism.

Clockwise from top left: Fields of Gold Crown, I'll Fly Away Tiara, Starry Night Crown, Genevieve Comb, Midsummer Night's Dream, Chapel Crown, Ginny Crown.

This natural vine wreath has a lovely Victorian feel to it. It would be an elegant garland for brides and guests alike.

Twiggy Crown by whichgoose, $35

whichgoose captures the essence of woodland fashion with this earthy yet delicate crown.

Lilith by whichgoose, $50.

This is so simple, lovely, and everything that shavingkitsuppplies also said. Just a bit of magic that would have me immediately at whichgoose's wonderful shop if I was planning a wedding! (and I'm going there right now anyway, despite no wedding!) Great job, thank you!

Emily made two of my favorite possessions and for that I'm grateful. She deserves to wear a crown. Lovely video! I always like the longer etsy vids so much, but the brief clips have their own special charm, yes.

I have been keeping track of Emily since I joined etsy. She is one of the 1st sellers to give me advice and encouragement! You lucky girl to have such a great video of your work.

I love this short video format. it is a great way to get a small taste of the seller in a very graphically interesting way!

Such lovely creations for almost any occasion - but soooo perfect for a wedding! It's even more special knowing some of the elements are hand chosen in a forest...

(I couldn't get the video to play... bummer. I'll try on another computer...)
