Bird of Paradise Candelabra

Had to share this pic with you of the latest candelabra I've prettied up for hire at weddings/events!

 

I used beautiful hackle feathers (which I bought by the meter from

The Embellishment Emporium - an online shop just full of gorgeous feather, bead and applique trims).

 

 

Centre of attention!

Rosenations - cross between roses and carnations...

I was asked to make a wedding posy for a bride who suffers dreadfully with hayfever. She is getting married in May and wants something quite simple.

She's not really into bling - so the heirloom vintage brooch posies I make are out of the question, so I have been busy making several differenct kinds of flowers from paper and fabric to see what I come up with...

 

Paper roses and carnations - I might put these together and call them "Rosenations"!

Here are some I've been making and am going to add buttons and beads to and assemble into a posy...

 

 

I'll post a picture of the posy and a tutorial on how to make your own when I'm done x

WOW factor Wedding Flowers!!!

I have completed the brides heirloom posy, corsages, buttonholes and babys headband...

Now at the start of creating wedding flowers with a real WOW factor!

Today the postman arrived with these beautiful ostrich feathers in rich cadburys purple...

The flowers to the side of the vase are actually going to be duplicated the other side and (don't tell) but they will become the mother of the bride and mother of the grooms bouquets...

something they can keep forever!

Happily having a play around...

will let you know what the finished product looks like!

Cadburys Purple

Cadburys colour puple organza ribbons and tiny rose on top of a stretch pearl ivory braclet with ivory leaves, petals, pearl spray and satin ribbon, make up this fairy like wrist corsage.
