Spring Bridal Bag and Buttonhole
Here is a little bag I have just made which would be ideal for a spring bride who didn’t want a traditional bouquet, and a matching buttonhole for the groom. The bag is covered in yellow paper ribbon which is exactly the same colour as the centres of the primroses.
Spring Leaves
At last spring is here!
The garden is looking so green and fresh that I just couldn’t resist collecting leaves with different shapes and textures in a whole range of greens and popping them onto a glass plate.
Whatever your heart desires!
Congratulations if your Valentines day was made complete with a proposal of marriage yesterday.
Fusion Flowers Magazine Competition
I entered the Fusion Flowers International Designer of the Year 2012 competition with a giant shell made from chicken wire covered in pieces of bark, Eryngium flowers and lichens, and lined with Anthurium flowers. I was trying to show the contrast between the rough outside and the silky smooth inside of a seashell. I didn’t actually win an award but it was great fun making the shell and undeterred I am now thinking about this years competition.
My daughter thought it would be fun to take a stop-motion of me photographing the shell in the muddy water at Kilve in Somerset!
