My Creative Space - Ivory And Pearl Hair Clips

I've been working on some ivory flower hair clips lately.

The perfect colour for bridal hair flowers.

The petals are a mix of ivory and the palest yellow-gold organzas and I love how they look with the pearls in the centres.

They're actually a tone or two yellower that the photos, like pastel gold, and they are just over 3.5 inches across.

I've got more of these petals ready to make into flowers, so I think I'll play around with the centres and see what happens. 

It's time to try some rhinestones and some stamen.

White Wedding

These are my latest bridal hair accessories, in total white.

Fairytale Flower - XL Bridal Flower

 This one is an extra large extravaganza of organza, tulle, feathers and rhinestones.

Bridal Flower Headpiece - Fairytale Flower

You can clip it straight onto the hair or you can attach it to a ribbon, which is what I've done in these pictures.
 I like the added romance of the organza ribbon trailing down the back back. 
Especially when the hair is swept up or short.

Oversized Bridal Hair Flower - Fairytale Flower

The one below is actualy the exact same flower and arrangement but in a considerably smaller scale.

Bridal Hair Accessory - Fairytale Flower

I'm enamoured with these feathers and how white they are.

Bridal White Wedding Flower - Fairytale Flower

You can see the organza ribbon in this picture. It's tied around the hair in a pretty bow and it's quite long so that it can trail behind.

White Organza Bridal Hair Flower - Fairytale Flower

You could actualy wear either of these flowers on a sash.

Bridal Headpiece - Fairytale Flower

I have a thing for all things bridal, whether over the top or subtle and subdued. 

What do you think?
Do you prefer a bride with accessories that make a statement or something more demure?

Topping It Off!

Here are some very hasty photos of some much-loved champagne organza flowers.

While I do enjoy making every one of my flowers, bridal flowers have that extra bit of magic to them, don't they?

These are for the lovely Emmeline, who decided to arrange them as her cake topper on her special day.

Wishing you the most fabulous of wedding days, Emmeline!

Next time I'll take better pictures that do them justice.....

Mini Dusky Pink Fascinator

This is one of my newest flowers.

A seemingly innocent dusky pink laced with a generous dose of drama.

The chunky beads in the centre are actually black onyx stones and the rich burgundy satin flower that is peeking out is handmade by my very own sister....

The flower is pretty small. Only 5cm -just under 2 inches. 

But the feather turns it into a much taller 10cm -or almost 4inches.
