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?

Black Bronze and Pewter Organza Flower Rings

These are my latest organza flower accessories: adjustable flower rings in moody black.

They all have beaded centres, in different colours. 

One has large, plain black beads, another has large, bronze, faceted, shimmering beads and the other has pewter seed beads with a more subtle glimmer.

 It's quite difficult to capture them in photos. 

Black organza in not photogenic -at least not in my shots. 

(Though much more so than red organza which I find impossible to photograph.)

They will look so much more themselves when photographed on a model. 

You can see how they look worn, here.

You can see the adjustable ring base clearly here.

The flowers are sewn securely to the perforated base.

They should be added to FairytaleFlower soon.

Wrist Corsage in Lilac, Purple and Champagne

This is my latest wrist cuff / corsage.

The flower is a delicate champagne organza that is shot through with bronze and gold set in purple and lilac toned leaves and ribbon.

I can't wait to photograph it on a model.

Rose Organza on Bronze Leaves Bag Charm

Remember the organza flower key chain/bag charm I made for a friend the other day?

Well, here's my very own organza flower key chain with the same type organza flower but very different bronze leaves.

I carry  it around everywhere!

It most definately brightens my day.

I think I found out what my next give-away will be.....

A new key chain of your very own.

What do you think?
