Bridal Flower Headpiece

This is a custom order, oversized flower headpiece I did just last week for a bride who loves her flowers - and is no shrinking violet! You need to have confidence to wear a floral crown of this magnitude. And just look at the size of these flowers! They are enornmous!

I adore oversized flower headdresses! The bigger the better, I say. They remind me of flower fairies and other romanticized creatures that populate fairytales and legends.

 There are 8 flowers in total attached to the ribbon but they are of varying sizes. The organza I used was selected in a white and ivory mix and there's some silver thrown in there as well, in the centres of most flowers.

 I thoroughly enjoyed making this flower wreath and I hope that she loves wearing it on her wedding day.

Ivory Flower Hair Pins

Dainty little flowers in the palest of ivories, attached to a U hair pin.

These are ideal for a bride who wants to sweep up -all or some of- her hair for the big day.

I love that you can add one or two flowers, you can sprinkle more of them throughout the hair or you can strategicaly place a row of them.

The pearl and rhinestone centres are one of my favourite centres too.

They're already listed in my Fairytale Flower shop on etsy.

Vintage Veil Patterns

Some of my vintage veil patterns. McCall 1490 is from the 1930s, Butterick 3753 is from 1970s and Vogue 9822 from the 1980s.

Aren't they lovely?

Dainty Pink

 Dainty pink and gold organza flower hair pins.

The pink organza is so pale and delicate that they somehow remind me of apple blossoms.

Golden Goddess Crown

The luminous Laura Okita in a golden leaf grecian crown.

Surely a wood nymph.

Or maybe the great goddess Artemis herself.

White Ivory Organza Flower Hair Clips

This palest ivory organza is a joy to work with. I tried adding some smokey grey faceted beads in with the rhinestones and I like the extra depth they add.

Fairytale Flower DIY

Yes, I have been rather absent from this blog lately but I have not been idle....

The photo collage above is a sneak peek into a diy project I've been working on for Sew Mama Sew blog which I've enjoyed thoroughly and can't wait to share with you.

Come back later for a series of easy diy floral accessory tutorials: a floral crown, a flower wrist corsage and a flower headband.

Golden Grecian Goddess Wreath

Everything looks so much better on a model, doesn't it?

Remember this golden wreath?

Could you tell that it would look like this when worn?

 I can see this as a winter or summer accessory. Dressed up or dressed down, you just can't beat the grecian goddess look.

I'd love to see it on a bride too!

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.

Lilac Fairytale Flower Hair Clip

This is my latest listing: large organza flowers in a sweet, romantic,  lilac.

To me, their shape resembles a cabbage rose and they are my latest addiction.

I've made them in all sorts of colours and sizes.

I'd love to see these flowers on a bride, bridesmaid or even a diminutive flowergirl.

Blush

These are three champagne organza flowers  made recently for the bridal sash of a blushing June bride.

I can't wait to see what she does with them. With an ivory wedding gown, they are sure to look spectacular!
