Name the necklace contest winner!
My Heart’s Chatelaine
Cindy and I thought long and hard, because there were so many wonderful suggestions, and we finally settled on Kathy Mary’s entry: My Heart’s Chatelaine. We both loved the explanation:
…a medieval woman’s (usually the wife of the castellan or the mistress of the house) job of carrying the keys to all the special rooms of the castle, she was in charge of letting the servants into the places that held the silver, spices, special foods - anything that could tempt them to theft, etc - The chatelaine? My Chatelaine? What about my “My heart’s chatelaine” because chatelaine can mean the woman who carries the keys or the keys, themselves?
Kathy Mary will receive a pair of lovely lampwork glass beads from Cindy. Thank you so much to all of you who made suggestions. I feel like I should turn this style into a series so that I can use some of the other great names!
