Purple Orchid, Hydrangea And Gardenia Bouquets

Last winter was extremely busy for me, and according to me schedule so will be the spring...
Lots of new exciting projects were completed and not less exciting to come!
I am extremely happy to have a chance to work with my brides! They give me so much inspiration and encouragement!
Thank you so much!!!!

However, sometimes I still need to take a little rest... and finally this weekend my beloved husband and I are leaving to Italy for one week mountain skiing tour! We both love this sport, and think that it is the best way we can switch our minds form the daily activity and take a breath for the new projects and tasks!

Before leaving on vacation, I would like to share with you the last bouquets I have created.
One of my destination brides was not satisfied with the bouquet which was included to the wedding package, and asked me to create a bouquet for her and 3 bouquets for the bridesmaids.

The flowers we have chosen were purple and white orchids, hydrangea, gardenias and stephanotis.

Here are the brides and bridesmaids bouquets which are already completed.
Two more bridesmaids bouquets to follow!

At the moment these bouquets are among my favorite ones I have created!

Hydrangea And Forget-Me-Not Flower Basket

My younger sister's mother-in-law has recently found a new hobby. During the last year she has been keen on painting, however couple of weeks ago she started to attend doll making classes.

For her first doll she decided to choose the image of a Venetian woman from the painting of Eugene de Blaas called "Flower Seller".

As you may guess, I was a person who has been asked to create a mini flower basket for the future doll!

At the beginning I was thinking where I can get such a small basket for the flowers, only 5" long, but than I had an idea to create it from the clay as well.

The final piece turned out to be very lightweight, which is perfect, as it won't overweight the doll.

My sister's mother-in-law was very happy with the result!
Hope I will be able to share the pictures of the doll when it will be ready.

So, now I have to return to my wedding orders.
New photos will be coming soon!
