One wedding, three creations

Please be kindly informed that we have moved! To read new blog posts, purchase our floral pieces and learn more about how to make flowers you are welcome to visit out new website here

Last week we went to a wedding, my husband's niece was getting married.
To prove the well-known proverb "The shoemaker's son always goes barefoot" wrong, I decided to create a cocktail hat for myself (for once! :-D) to wear at the wedding. It gave me a chance to try my new hat block, a mini beret. I covered the base with a beautiful quilted dupioni silk and decorated with a spray of rumbling roses in purple.

Simple rose wedding headband

I must post more often I know but it is ever so difficult to balance between posting on all these social network websites, marketing my silk creations , taking part in craft fairs and actually making silk flowers!
But as promised I continue to share pictures of my friend Alevtina Kireycheva wearing my handmade silk flowers. This time let me present a bridal headdress embellished with simple roses (or dog roses) and finished with golden leaves. It has a pure and innocent look to it and as always can be made in different colours to match the theme of  a wedding party. Other ways of using are as a headband for a flower girl or just a ice head piece for a little girl invited to a christening party.
Now here is the picture of the said floral headband ☺
