Mini Lilac and Ivory Hair Flowers

 These mini hair flowers are just under 4 cm (about 1.5 inches) and attached to baby alligator clips.

They're great to clip onto your hair whether it's carefully arranged or not. 

They have great grip so you won't have to worry and fuss over them. 

I just attach them and forget them.

Ivory Bridal Flowers

Spring Flowers

Flower Girl Basket

I made this little organza pouch as an alternative to a flower girl basket.

It's light and versatile and the easiest thing to be packed  into a suitcase for, say, a destination wedding....

I've added two loops -on either side of the handle- so that any kind of embellishment can be added. I was thinking a ribbon with flowers would be a nice touch.Tied with a pretty bow and enough left to trail down.

Large Ethereal Flower Wand

I made this flower wand the other day. It's got a big peony-like flower, tulle leaves and trailing organza ribbons so ethereal that they seem to float down rather than cascade down.

I can see it being carried down the aisle by smiling flower girls or being propped in a pretty glass bottle, jar or vase as table decor just about anywhere.

I like the result so much that I've started experimenting with other colours, shapes, sizes and styles for the flowers, the ribbon and even the wooden dowel itself.

Shark Grey Flower Sneak Peek

Small handmade flower appliques in a dark, charcoal grey.

Black Flower Crown

While the black flowers on this flower crown seem to have a blue tinge, they're actually ink black with a hint of gold and bronze thrown in - and they are made from these black organza flowers.

Large Raven Black Flowers

 These are large black organza flowers I made for a special project.

There's eight of them - in the two different sizes shown in these pictures.

They're actually darker than the pictures show. They're jet black with no hint of blue at all. Both the organza used for the petals and the tulle are as black as night. 

The only relief from the darkness of the flower comes in the form of the gold stamens in the centre and and a hint of dark bronze organza in the mix to highlight the black and give the flower some depth and interest. Can you see it?

Large Burgundy and Black Flower Boutonierre

A large flower boutonniere in a moody mix of burgundy and black. 

It measures 2.5 inches or about 6.35 cm across.

It's a custom order, made to tie into a special wedding outfit. So it's one of a kind. 

 And it's making its way across the ocean as we speak.

Red Poppy Earrings

Another pair of poppy post earrings. This time in red with a discreetly lustrous pewter grey bead centre. (You can see the previous ones here.)

 These ones also measure about 1.5 cm across. They are the smallest in size for these flower earrings. There is also a medium and a large size available.

And these are also listed in my Fairytale Flower etsy shop.

White Flower Bobby Pins

  Dainty little flowers on silver bobby pins. 

(Sewn on. Not glued on. Which makes them last so much longer.)

Perfect for little girls.

You can find them here.

Black Flower Brooch

This large black organza flower sash-turned-brooch was a custom order that I really enjoyed making. The ribbon is tied in a bow and then left long to trail down in a pretty cascade when worn.

Palest Ivory Bridal Flower

Extra large palest ivory bridal flower hair clip from my Fairytale Flower shop on etsy.

Red Flower Appliques

Small handmade flowers in a bold, poppy red.

They have been left without any type of backing so that they can be used as appliques that can be attached to any sort of clothing, accessory or other diy project.

Red Poppies and Pheasant Feather Boutonnieres

These red poppy and pheasant feather boutonnieres were a request from a fall bride. 

There's one for the groom and one each for the groomsmen and the young boys of the wedding party. 

I also made one for the bride, as a brooch, for a keepsake.

 In my opinion, you can never spoil the bride enough. Right?

Making Custom Orders

Turquoise Flower Corsage

Flower corsage with striking turquiose organza flower and palest blue tulle leaves on a pastel blue ribbon. 

These were a summer custom order for bridesmaids and I enjoyed making them immensely!

I find this colour so lively and vivid and cheery, it just makes me smile.

Bridal White Flower Wrist Corsage

These white organza flower and white tulle leaf corsages were part of a custom order of bridesmaids and flower girl corsages. 
The almost luminous peach centre is a combination of translucent beads and iridescent sequins.

Feathers and Crystals Flower Headpiece

This veiled headpiece was a recent custom order for an August bride. 

The stark white flower has crystals in the centre, ranging from clear to silver. The headpiece also has handmade tulle leaves, immaculate white feathers and white Russian veil. The picture hardly does it justice. 

The bride, I'm happy to say, loved it!
