Flutterby

Thinking about Spring in January gets me through the winter!

So, how do you like these flirty-girls?  Aren't they sweet?!!



I picked out these lovely vintage petal-shaped sequins from Andrew Thornton and William Jones of Allegory Gallery last summer (they still have them in stock, FYI).  I also purchased them in pink and yellow but my studio seems to have swallowed them up whole and I can't find them at the moment! *sigh



The top Robin's-egg blue, rustic enamel flower wheels, were made by Susan Kennedy of Suebeads.




Transparent sequins in mint green with a lovely pastel iridescent cast.  The quality of vintage sequins is wonderful.



The beautiful pod-like handcrafted enamels were made by Anne Gardanne.



On darker backgrounds and/or in a certain light, the pinks show up! This photo shows all the layers fanned out. When it is worn it hangs straight down.




Well, thank you for stopping by and seeing what I've been up to!  I'll be back in a couple of weeks :)

All the supply resources are linked with the names of the artist or shop.

Cheers! 
(I've been watching a lot of British Shows lately.. ♡)

Kimono



I love these beautiful Mint Criffles from Kimberly Rogers and I paired them with some of my new Colored Copper components. When I put them together they immediately reminded me of a Kimono.

Forest Dew Drops





Sparkling nymphs play at dawn
With the fae laddies they find fair
To dance many a dance in airs
Above the ground or on lea's green lawns
Betwixt forests mystery where bluebells pair.



Beneath canopy even falls violet
Upon branch and nest lay its breast

Awaiting morns sweet suffuse wet
Cooling the heat of noon's bright protest
In honor of Summers sonata in ultraviolet.
