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!

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.....

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!

Barely There Champagne Organza Flower Bridal Sash

This is one of my newest organza flowers and one of my new favourites.

Bridal Sash / Headband by FairytaleFlower

The golden ivory colour of the organza is so delicate and ethereal, it makes the flower look luminous, like it's barely there.

Which is why I added a ribbon in a fine, transluscent organza.

 It goes particularly well, I think.

The leaves are also my latest addiction. Bridal white tulle and very white thread.

Caramel or Dark Chocolate?

This is what I'm working on lately.
Leaves for this very large, very red organza flower.

There are two versions I'm stuck on because I like them equally.

One is this very dark chocolate brown

and the other is this lovely dark caramel brown corduroy. 

Corduroy is definately one of my favourite winter materials and with the temperature dropping noticably in the evenings, I've been longing to work with it.

What do you think?

Which leaves are best?

The lighter corduroy leaves or the darker, more dramatic ones?
