Total Gold Organza Flower Hair Clips


I'm absolutely in love with this gold organza.
I tend to go through colour crushes that last a while and then fade away until the next one. 
It probably shows in this blog from time to time too.
It definately shows through my flowers.



Golden Organza Flower - Fairytale Flower


So this golden yellow is my latest colour obsession and I've made an assortment of different flowers with it so far.
But this one is my newest style and one of the very first flowers with stamens that I made -which I have found out that I adore!


Golden Organza Flower  Hair Clip - Set Of 2 - Fairytale Flower


I was thinking of something glamorous for a bride - be it for a fall wedding or not - and I reasoned that you can't get more glamorous then gold.


Golden Flower Hair Clip - Fairytale Flower


So the result was a set of two hair clips in total gold. Lustrous metallic gold stamen paired with golden yellow organza.
Gold excess!



Fairytale Flower - Gold Organza Flower

The look adorable clipped together but just one can stand perfectly well on its own.

What do you think?
Would they look good on a bride on her big day?

Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Winners



First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for participating -and the Sew Mama Sew blog for organizing Giveaway Week -aka Giveaway Day.




One Perfect Day blog fabric and vintage lace giveaway


Beyond having the opportunity to win any of hundreds of giveaway prizes (there were 515 giveaways this May), Giveaway Day is a wonderful opportunity to interact with those manic -or not- crafters out there and visit lots of wonderful blogs you haven't had the chance to see yet.

If for any reason I cannot contact either of the two winners, or if I do not hear from them within the next couple of days -you'd be surprised how often this happens- I'll re-draw a name for a new winner.

My Creative Space- Leaf Experiments

I've been working on my mother-daughter organza flowers a lot lately.



I've already confessed an addiction to making them.



Now I have to confess to yet another one....




It's the leaves...




I can't stop making those either.




I've been experimenting with different colours,  textures and sizes.




Different silks, denim, canvas, cotton, jersey and lace have all being given a go.




I have to admit to being slightly partial to the shantung silk but I do love them all.




These are the very latest version. Silk on denim.




I can't wait to see them fray....



For many , wonderful creative projects just click on Our Creative Spaces.
