A new service is now available. Whilst at the latest fair in Newbury a lady was looking through my playing card greetings cards. She selected the cards and commissioned a bespoke piece. I think this might be the way forward.

♦ ♣ ♥ ♠ Flowers to be framed ♦ ♣ ♥ ♠

I had a request to create 3 flowers in black and white, one large and two to go either side slightly smaller. Three black mounts are currently being cut to size at the Eastleigh Picture Framing Gallery just around the corner. They were very complimentary of my work and also gave me lots of advice, which I appreciated a lot!

♦ ♣ ♥ ♠ Queen of Hearts Buttonhole ♦ ♣ ♥ ♠

From a private request through Etsy I was asked to create a Buttonhole to work alongside the Queen of Hearts. I personally really love it and now want to create one to mount on a vintage full size top hat...

So... I have all the bits, sort of, just waiting on the blue veiling to arrive, oh and I haven’t put the Liberty fabric I am going to use underneath as a lining in the pic. Think I might have too many bits. Just not quite sure how to put them all together. Was thinking of a velvet base with the flowers and foliage gathered at the top. Rhinestones either on the leaves or the veiling, maybe even both.

hmmmmm

Watch this space!
