Real Wedding, Butterfly Bridesmaid Inspiration

Sometimes I get to work with all the special girls for a wedding day. My lovely client Rebecca commissioned a special diamante headband for her wedding. While we were planning her piece she fell in love with my butterfly crowns and asked me to make two crowns for her daughters. Mike and Rebecca got married on a fantastic sunny August day at The Orangery, Whittlebury Hall Rebecca chose a great wedding hair style, created by Coppers Hair loose at the front and swept into a soft cluster bun at the the back, with a small plait to off set her beaded diamante headband. Aren’t these little curls so adorable! Rebecca’s daughters look like the perfect flower girls. This shot shows the flower girls butterfly circlet off beautifully! Each little satin butterfly is hand cut and sewn on to a flexible wore circlet headband, finished with hand made ivory paper roses. Congratulations Rebecca and Mike! Thank you for sharing your brilliant wedding day photos captured by Laura O Photography.

Delicate Bespoke Floral Bridal Hairpiece

My Client Alyssa contacted me via my Etsy Shop to commission a bespoke hair pin for her wedding. I’m so pleases she shared these beautiful images from her big day with me. Alyssa requested that I blend two designs from my collection to create this pretty, delicate little hair pin. She had a really clear idea of what she wanted, nothing too sparkly or large, and she was not able to find the piece for her. When she read that I took commission she got in touch, we chatted on email with photos, Alyssa lives in the United States, fine tuned the design and I sent it over to her for her bridal hair trial. Thank you Alyssa for your kind words, and sharing your beautiful wedding photos.

On My Desk Today……. Blush Pink and Gold Bridal Hair Pins

Today I am putting together 2 Marcella Gold and Blush Pink Hair Pins. I have to be honest – they are a labour of love! Why? Well, this bridal hair pin design features handmade clay flowers and leaves. I form the flowers and leaves from a specialist clay, it has to be coloured and get to the correct consistency to be be manipulated, so this can involve some waiting while the fresh clay dries off a little. When the floral and leafy details are shaped they need to dry over night before the gold lacquer can be applied. The pearl and crystal sprigs are a little quicker to create, but still I thread each pearl and crystal into place on the wire stems and secure the shapes. When all of the separate components are made up I begin to secure them together to form the mini bouquet motif. I think it is worth the work, the finished hair pin is light and delicate but quite a strong visual piece. As with all bridal hair pins it is really versatile too, brides can wear one two or more and fit them into any hair style. Embracing the handmade process enables me to produce bespoke versions too. This custom coloured Marcella pin set was commissioned in red with orange pearls for a beautiful Autumn wedding. The Ivory bridal hair pin above was commissioned last summer. It is a mix of two of my designs. Are you planning a wedding? Keep in touch with Mimosa on Instagram @bridalmimosa for a little peek into my studio and work.
