I just listed a couple of new hairpin styles in my Etsy shop. They're part of my new Resort 2008 collection!
The Flor Blanca Hairpins feature lovely and delicate white organza flowers with sparkly centers (made with Swarovski crystals and seed beads). The multi-layered effect on these hairpins speaks of romance and tropical sunsets. The organza is a pure white color, perfectly accented by the Aurora Borealis effect on the Swarovski crystals.
This style is a departure from my regular beaded jewelry and accessories, since it incorporates fabric petals. Each petal is handcut and shaped to form a fabulous bloom. I have been experimenting with some new techniques for creating fabric flowers, and I hope to soon be able to launch a line of bridal accessories with satin, organza and tulle flowers.
I just love the colors in this one! The mix of subtle dusty rose crystals with blush-colored pearls and sprinkles of light champagne is fabulous when paired with the oversized shell flower. The Hibiscus Hairpin is one of my personal favorites from my new collection and has a definitely modern/tropical feel.
The Hibiscus Hairpin features an oversize shell flower, made with luxurious, iridescent mother-of-pearl ovals. It is accented with three undulating stems of sterling silver wire with Swarovski crystals and freshwater pearls.
The subtle palette of ivory, dusty rose and light gold will be a perfect accent for champagne gowns, while the exotic design is reminiscent of the lush tropical vegetation.
