Winter is bearing down and our garden flowers may be scarce
but these are sure to cheer you up.
Here is the design that I made to be featured in Bride Noir a while back. I really loved it! It was constructed out of white dupioni silk taffeta and had rows of hand beaded trim.
Vintage sterling silver plated pedestal tray centerpiece. The bottom has a felt pad to protect your furniture. The arrangement consists of velvet roses, two kinds of velvet hydrangea, red berries, frosted shimmer berries and genuine Swarovski crystals. I also added some accents of ribbon throughout. You would not believe how many flowers are in this. 
This was one of my favorites. I used a vintage heavily embroidered handkerchief and Swarovski crystals and pearls. It was on a white silk taffeta base and tufted with a mother of pearl button.
Isn't this gorgeous! This is just a detail photo of an antique lace dress. Can you imagine what the rest of the dress looks like and how spectacular it must be. This is part of a private collection.




I am so thrilled that I can have the honor of bride's sending me wedding photos. These come from Carrie's wedding. She purchased a custom color flower girl pouch in white from me and a red silk bow ring bearer pillow. These photos come courtesy of her and her photographer Karlisa Logan Photography in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
To be able to see my items in the completed setting really brings the entire picture together. I love seeing all the small details of the event come together in the photograph. Like the red ribbon in the little girl's hair that ties together with the red ring bearer pillow. Thank you Carrie for sending me these pictures!



Here are the Bride and Groom. Don't they look fantastic! Angela was so great to work with and she is the first bride to send me pictures. I hope she has started a trend and that with my new blog I can share all these beautiful photos with you.
