Pardon my absentia.
I have had all sorts of things breaking out that needed higher attention
than fashioning frippery.
Sniff.
Anyway, I am back.
I have made this lovely double fleur headpiece.
It's tulle, satin and organza.
Fluffed and frayed and formed to make two lovely roses in bloom.
I am smitten.
It will be available at The Hat Box, soon.
Here's the inception.
Anything can trigger my imagination.
I am not sorry I have kept this magazine for over a year.
Its quiet pink hues got me going.
In other news Chanel is continuing to follow my instructions.
Too much is never enough, dear Karl.
An abundance of flowers.
Feathers.
Lace and tulle.
Big hats.
Nothing not too love.

And, finally I have joined Facebook.
Flora Fascinata, thank you, very much.
A neat little Business page that is my online Visual Diary.
I found this lovely pastel artwork by Albert Breaute while idling my time.

A beautiful soul wrote this under the painting.
The Window to the Universe Opens Inward and Outward.
Look after yours.
Both inward and outwards.
Did you do the pastel? If so, wowza.
ReplyDeleteThe fleurs are fabulous. x
No, and I have now popped in the art work details...isn't it beautiful! It's a piece from 1800s (late, I think).
DeleteI am happy with the double fleurs. :Dx
How clever and how pretty .
ReplyDelete…. and, many thanks for your birthday wishes. They mean a lot. XXXX
