More Purple Rose Brides And Bridesmaids Bouquets

One of my Etsy brides contacted me in February, and asked if I could make purple rose bouquets for her and her bridesmaids, as well as some corsages and boutonnieres.

Becky was inspired by the purple rose bouquet I made before, so we agreed to make a similar one for her with slight correction of the tones. Also in order to make brides bouquet a bit different from two other bouquets we decided to add some blink to it and put some crystals, which I think was a very good idea!

Me

Last week I was contacted by the representative of the local web site where artisans can sell their works (similar to Etsy one, but not so extensive) .
I was told that site owners really like my flowers, and would like to write a review about me and my activity.
Since I needed to send them my picture I decided to make the one together with my flowers.
Unfortunately at the moment I do not have much time to make a professional studio photo, so I asked my father to make a couple of quick pictures at my parent's house.




Later I will show you the pictures of one of my last orders - purple rose bouquets.
Now I have to complete a bouquet with turquoise roses, and then will proceed with a big order for coral tone wedding florals, after that I hope to take a short break and focus on my C2 class projects.

DECO CLAY C2 Classes - 2nd Project - Topiary, Something Blue Brides Bouquet With Roses And Daisies

This is my 2nd project for Deco Clay C2 class .



I decided to make the topiary in blue and white colors, as suppose that they fit together really well!




After I completed the project, I realized that it can be also used as a bridal "something blue" bouquet :)

DECO CLAY C2 Classes - 1st Project - Corsage And Boutonniere

I would like to show you the first project which I completed during Deco Clay C2 classes I attended in April.

These are the corsage and the boutonniere.


Since I really love purple and coral colors I decided to make the main flowers in these tones.


Will share some of my other C2 project with you soon!

Bridal Hair Fascinator

One of my local brides asked me to create a hair fascinator flower that will be similar in shape to the chiffon flowers that will be attached to her dress.

Sanita also wanted some clear crystals to be added to the center of the flower, so that it matches to the jewelry she will be wearing.



Suppose this delicate flower will make the bride look even more feminine .

Now I have to prepare one of my recently completed orders for shipping. Will show you the pictures of these bouquets a bit later.


After that some new orders to start... I am a bit tired, but so excited to see how my new creations will look like!

P.S. Finally, warm and sunny weather came to Latvia, the trees are blooming, flowers are everywhere... It gives me so much inspiration and makes me smile :))) I definitely love this time of the year!!!

Beaded Necklaces

My mum is still passionate about making the jewelry.
Every day she is learning new techniques and upgrading her skills.

I really love these two necklaces she has recently made for her clients.

This necklace is made of chameleon color seed beads.




This three strand necklace was purchased by the bride, who initially intended to buy just one of my hair pins, but lately decided to order the necklace as well.



We decided to list the necklaces to my mum's Etsy shop to be made to order.

Freesia Centerpiece

Couple of month ago my husband's godmother asked me to create a centerpiece for her.
She has chosen the one with freesias which I made before. Since I prefer each of my works to be unique and different one from another, this time I added more lilac color flowers than in my previous piece.


These flowers look so sunny, and I suppose they will be a perfect decoration for the dining table.

Last News And Coral Color Bouquet

Today I would like to share the last news with you - finally, I have finished C2 course classes at DECO Clay Academy in Russia! It was a great experience, so many new techniques and flowers were learned. Have met so many nice people who also enjoy the art of making the flowers from the clay! It is amazing how close you can get with absolutely different people while doing the same activity!

Now I have to complete all the projects... When they are ready, I will be able to reach my long time goal - to receive DECO Clay Instructor certificate!
Hope it will not take very long, and soon there will be new DECO Clay instructor in Europe!
I will definitely let you know when it happens, and will invite everyone who is willing to learn how to make flowers from DECO Clay to Latvia!

In addition, I would like to show you the pictures of coral color bouquet, which I mentioned in my previous post.

My Etsy client ordered the bouquet with poppies, roses and cherry blossom in different tones of coral and light pink colors.

I love coral color palette (the same as purple one :))) , so was confident about the result. The bouquet turned out to be very delicate and to my mind kind of vintage.
Hope Jennifer will receive the parcel soon!

Red Anemone Headband

I could not resist showing you the pictures of the headband I made for my Etsy client!

Randine has asked me if I could make a hair piece with red anemone flower and buds for her.
I really love these flowers, so I was happy to have a chance to create them!



To my mind the headband turned out to be a great hair piece for the summer season!
And now I am thinking of creating something similar for myself as well... :)))
