I have been chomping at the bit to reveal this brand new project to you. It gives me great pleasure to introduce to you The Leona Charlize bouquet.

Comprised of hand cut petals of various gorgeous silk fabrics, faceted peridot gemstones, silver rhinestone clusters, vintage brooches and lace. Each flower is its own individual piece with a green dupioni silk wrapped stem. I created this one of a kind bouquet for the lovely Jo from
Peacock Invitations, she is setting up a photo shoot to promote handmade in the wedding industry at a secret European/Mediterranean location.

I have been thinking about concepts for a bouquet made out of silk flowers a lot so when she asked me to create one I was thrilled to say the least. Each rhinestone cluster is pieced together and stitched to the flower by hand. I hope you enjoy the Leona Charlize as much as I do.

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I want it for my very own!!! I want to just hold it at various angles while looking at myself in the mirror. Absolutely MAGNIFICENT bouquet, girl! I want to make a headpiece to match it in the worst way!!! :)
Very exquisite bouquet! And the pictures are fantastic too. Very clear, good angles. Love the whole concept. Good for you!
Wow Marie... It's absolutely GORGEOUS!!! You have outdone yourself.
OMG! it's fabulous!
OMG Marie - my mouth just dropped open in awe when I saw the photos - you MUST create more to sell in your shop. What an absolutely gorgeous eco-friendly bouquet that can be kept for years. I cannot wait to see this photo shoot from Jo, what a great idea.
I love it! That is definitely the best non-living bouquet I have EVER seen, and that is saying a lot!
It's just stunning!
That is show-stoppingly fantastic!
Girl, you're on to something here - I challenge any live bouquet to look so good! (but then, you know my weakness for the sparkles...)
Love it!!
Absolutely beautiful :) I wish I'd had it for my own wedding. Very classy and glam!
