Exciting Times.

Over the half term I received a voice mail from a lady working for Vogue asking me if I would like to feature in their bridal feature which would be in the April issue. I quickly returned the call to get more details, which sounded very exciting. After an overnight think about it and check of the bank balance (Vogue aren't cheep to add a feature to) I decided to phone back and agree to be in the feature- I would be crazy not to, but I was a bit sceptical as to why they would ask me. They helped me choose a photo which has a few of my items being worn at a wedding- in fact it is my two girls as bridesmaids and the photo taken by my husband, then add a paragraph about what I do.

This has prompted me to revamp my website and start making the tiaras I have been wanting to try out but haven't got round to doing. First up was wire knitting a tiara, this started off being a nightmare following the triangle pattern I had, but 5th attempt in I managed to alter the pattern to suit the wire I was using and made some progress plus two sore fingers and blunt wooden needles! But I must carry on and finish.


Here is a sneak preview.
