my dear friend ashley nacke sent jara my way, and i was so excited about creating pieces for each of her six bridesmaids and flower girl, as well as a bridal piece for her! i had inspiration: the bridesmaids' shoes and jewelry, and the elegance of jara's dress. here's what i came up with:
the whole set:
three headbands and three clips for the bridesmaids. (i made the tiny flower girl clip later.)
the largest of the twisty-style design, beaded with large pearls:
(each piece is slightly different in size, beading, and design.)
the largest of the flower-style design, beaded in a triangle design:
the bridesmaids' pieces are made from a textured vinyl-style fabric, similar to the texture of the shoes.
a smaller twisty-style headband, beaded with two large & two small pearls:
a mid-sized flower-style clip, beaded with small pearls in a pea-pod design:
(backed with felt and attached to a metal alligator clip)
the smallest of the twisty-style design, beaded with three small pearls:
(this one might be my favorite!)
the smallest of the flower-style design, beaded with a single small pearl:
(the flower girl's clip was the same style, just smaller.)
jara's bridal piece:
(an ivory satin rosette topped with an earring that jara provided)
a side view:
we had originally talked about attaching feathers to the rosette to make it a little more fabulous, but jara decided on this piece by itself. it definitely worked with the elegance of her dress!
jara just got married yesterday (congrats!), so i can't wait to see pictures. i'll post some as soon as i can. i have one more wedding collection to finish this summer, and i hope to do more in the future! if you know anyone who could use some wedding treasures, send them my way!
