Themed dress for a 'Vintage Tea Party'

 
A beautiful floral frock shimmering in the sunshine at a'Vintage' themed tea party.
 
The delightfully textured bodice was created from chicken mesh and paper mache and decorated with blue Hydrangea petals. A layer of wax was added to provide a touch of antique elegance.
 
 
The skirt is fashioned from shredded cardboard packaging and adorned with Antiqua Carnations, and wax dipped Chrysanths, Hydrangea and Dendrobium Orchids. Pearls, ribbon and lace are added to create the perfect Vintage look.
 
A wonderful old-fashioned feel - blowsy blooms in pretty pastels!
 

Floral Room Decoration


This distinctive room decoration is created using an old wine bottle, copper mesh and a Gregor Lershe wiring technique. Its composition makes it look like an embellished lampshade.
 
Decorated with beautiful Cymbidium and Oncidium Orchids, Wax Flower, Muscari, Astrantia and fluffy blue wool.
 
From above: the design almost appears to be floating.

 Fabulous movement, harmonious colours and contrasting shapes and textures.

Constructing the design using floristry wires.

Crescent Waxed Bridal Design


This is a beautiful and delicate handheld bridal design. The curved structure is made from polystyrene, wax and wool.

Adorned with White Phalaenopsis Orchids, Muscari and wired beads.

Lightweight and dainty!
