The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

Here's the actual description...
Lady Éowyn wore a great blue mantle of the colour of deep summer-night, and it was set with silver stars about hem and throat.
To: 2Jedismom; Wneighbor
The cloak was from one of those Wiccan wardrobe sites, actually. That's the closet one I found in all this time! It's unbelievable to discover how hard it is to find a pic of a dark blue velvet cloak! You'd think the net would be overflowing with them.
As far as the accessories go, I'd have to find some decent looking replacements. Each brooch costs $14,000.00 and the price of the clasp is not listed here.

To: RMDupree
Oh yeah, Ruthy I think rhinestones would certainly do...as a matter of fact, I aways saw them in my mind's eye as being like studs, you know? Put on with a stud putter-oner jobber...
And what is the difference between a mantle and a cloak?

I don't know about cake. I don't eat cake much. But when a Brit asked me if I wanted a biscuit, I wanted a biscuit. I got a cookie.MadIvan, you're probably wondering why you are being pinged to the Hobbit Hole of all places. It seems that we are in the middle of another Lembas debate.
Are the words cake, biscuit, and cookie used to describe different things over in England than they are in America?

...rhinestones....I can see it now. Eowyn rides up as Dernhlem singing, "Like a Rhinestone Dernhelm!"
No wonder the Witch-King couldn't withstand her. *shudder*

Hey!Knock it off or I'll lop your head off, and I'll wear my Rhinestone studded deep blue mantle while I do it!
Unless you are offering to foot the bill to have the rhinestones replaced with real diamonds...

I always wondered who that guy's face was...or woman's face...down in the lower left of that pic of Arwen. Obviously Aragorn behind her.
To: Dawntreader
Looks a bit like Merry in that corner. Maybe he was sent to Took's corner.

And what is the difference between a mantle and a cloak?That's what I was asking for your thoughts on yesterday. I have 2 great cape/cloak patterns. One is like the picture Ruthy found, the other is more square, but long, with a hood also.

I don't think it's a character...I think it's someone standing in front of a poster!
