fae flowers

I'm so excited about these pretty floral crowns!  They're a perfect way to bring whimsy to a bridal, prom, or graduation ensemble, or to add a little bit of magic to every day.  Check out more photos and choose one for yourself in the shop.

If you'd love a fairy-crown but you'd prefer a different color, just let me know!  Just click the little email icon in the top right-hand corner of the blog, or send me a conversation on Etsy.  I'd love to work with you to create something special!

Have a beautiful evening!

woodland fairy dress

My dress for my leather class is finished!

please pardon the cheesy mirror-photos...

tooled leather bodice

I cut around the motifs to create a more organic feeling along the seams, and the straps are looped through gold grommets.

how did I get the skirt so fluffy?  crinoline!

...lots of crinoline.  usually I attach it directly to the waist of the dress, but between the pure volume of fluff and the unusual waist treatment, topstitching along the motif edges, I decided to make a separate crinoline skirt for this dress.
my friend Lauren immediately seized it when I got to class and pranced around in it for a while.

This was such a fun dress to make.  It makes me feel like I should be in a woodland fairy ballet.  

Or something.
