And then there were more tiaras






And it's getting better - with a splash of gold and bronze here and there for a change, and a fabulous 'two silk flower' tiara with my handmade leaves - my 1st attempt at incorporating silk flowers and I love the outcome. Then there is the 'half Ice Queen' tiara and finally, a small hairpiece or button hole using little ivory coloured feathers and two hand crocheted lilies. These items and the most recent ones shown below are all going to a fantastic hatshop - Eleda Hats in Guiseley. Don't forget to click on the pictures to see the item in more detail.

More new tiara creations



A gorgeous comb filled with Swarovski crystals and Swarovski crystal pearls in cream colour. This is ideal to slide into the side of an updo, or to wear in the side of your hair, or on the top of a half up, half down hairdo (like Pippa Middleton did it). The side tiara is full of handmade frosted leaves with a handmade centre piece made from Swarovski crystals and with more Swatovski crstals used to 'tip' the leaves.

More examples of crowns and tiaras




Here are three more examples of the work I am now producing. I feel that, with experience, I am now creating some wonderful, one-off designs. The side tiara with leaves uses a vintage diamante centre piece and the fabulous little crown contains all Swarovski crystal flowers on silvery stems. The 'Juliet cap' is also created using all Swarovski crystals. I will enter another blog to show more examples.

Icicle Crown


This crown Is a wild and wonderful thing of beauty. An unusual design, it is made up of cream glass pearls. The pearl stems represent lots of spikey icicles. It would look great with your hair all in a mess, piled inside the crown, backcombed, frizzy or lots of texture.
