A Pretty Silk Flower Accessory


While browsing an etsy seller's feedback,I found this cute silk chiffon flower by Bloom and Co for $15.00
It measures 3-4 inches and is entirely hand stitched.Having cut up a bunch of tulle for my tulle earrings,I can certainly appreciate the work she put into these.She can also attach a barrette to it.
I think this would look really pretty as a bridal wreath with 3 of the big ones in back and small rosebud appliques in front and ribbon steamers in the back.And a veil,if you want.
