For all of my loyal friends out there, I wanted to share with you some exciting news. A couple of weeks ago, I added a new product to my Etsy store~Parisienne Petals~romantic brooches that have a vintage appeal. As a "grand launching" of this product and a thank you, I want to give one of these brooches to one lucky winner. Winner's choice!
A little bit about my hand-made flowers:
*Each brooch is made of luxurious fabrics-silks, velvets, brocades, taffetas
*All petals are hand-cut by me
(These aren't craft store flowers with a pin glued to the back.)

*The design of these brooches are one of a kind- I created the template for the petals and I select the fabrics.
*Edges of petals are treated to prevent fraying.
*I love using authentic vintage pearls, beads, jewelry and ribbons for the centers of my brooches.

~Le Petit Trianon Brooch~ This flower is my Marie Antoinette inspired brooch. I drew these colors from the gorgeous robin's egg walls in the Petit Trianon at Versailles and sumptuous dresses worn by the actresses in the film Marie Antoinette.
Although the color palette of this flower might be considered more fitting for the spring and summer months, I would still wear it in the winter...but that's just me.
~vintage vanilla cream brooch~
I hand-dyed the fabric used in this brooch to make it a creamier shade of white.
~La Sorbonne~
A charcoal raw silk brooch, with the appearance of linen is a great color for fall yet light weight enough for spring.
~velvet decadance~
This brooch is one of my very first creations. It is fashioned with layers of dusty rose and burgundy velvet. It is ruffled and so very rich.
~Satine~ Inspired by Moulin Rouge
~A scarlet silk and crinkled velvet brooch~a rich, classic, striking
