🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since the mod is from 2013, check if you need a compatibility patch for your Skyrim version (especially Special Edition or Anniversary Edition).
Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and manage the files — it'll make uninstalling easier if you run into issues.
Look for the circlets in the crafting menu or via console commands if you can't find them in-game — the description doesn't specify locations.
