[SCA-BMDL] Award Medallions

[Krista Cogan]

And how does one make these medallions?  Here are some options:
 
-Paint it on a blank (wood, leather, metal, clay, horn, that plastic-y stuff that looks like clay, etc)
-Work it in fibers (card woven, inkle woven, embroidered).  Here's a neat site from Mistress Alienor: http://alianorderavenglas.wordpress.com/2009/02/23/award-medallions/
-Work it in glass (enameling, use tiny beads for beading onto cloth, or fire it onto a bead). Here's the glass center's website: http://www.pittsburghglasscenter.org/?gclid=CNbSkdnhxKcCFc165QodD2njDw 
-Cast it in metal
-Carve it, then paint it (wood, leather, horn)
-More money than time or talent? Buy it from a website or merchant (yinz guys ken Google, right?)
-Re-purpose an old medallion (anyone have a Keystone medallion they never, ever wear, isn't dear, and they aren't saving for someone?)
 
Not sure how to start? Contact our A&S Minister, Baron Langdon, and he can point you in the right direction. (ansminister at debatablelands.org)
Have fun!

Greetings Unto All!
 
It has come to my attention that the Kingdom is very low on the award medallions that Their Majesties give during Their Courts. I have been asked to pass this message along to my wonderful and industrious Barony. If any of you are so inclined or find yourself wanting to work on something artistic, here is a perfect opportunity!  
 
There is a website that has images of the badges of the orders and awards: http://www.aeheralds.net/badges.html

If you are able, please consider helping out.  I know the Kingdom would appreciate it.
 
In Service,
 
~Maesta Gianna di Aurelio
