A tulip pin for spring flowers lovers!

I admire a spring flowers - especially tulips! Now, winter Australia and I am awaiting these amazing time spring colorful blossoming.
How to feel charming  of the spring  all year? Have a look here  :-)

I make tulip bads of shimmering effect pure silk fabric. This rich and luxurious silk can "change" a bit colors in different light conditions.
And these flowers do not need water at all )

Are they beautiful?

Hope, I will get this spring these amazing floral creatures in my garden ) I have planted them 2 weeks ago!

Plush fellows of denim fabric

I love denim! It is beautiful and truly unique fabric. I had an interesting idea  -  to make of this textile a stuffed toys ... I chose a very thin denim fabric with shabby effect  to achieve smooth curved lines of the toys and be able to make the fine details.
So here they are!

miss Tricksy Snail

She loves a tulips and asked me to create a white silk tulip to carry it on her shell. I call her now miss Tulip Snail.

And a new sweet cute couple - Denim toys - Mother Whale and Baby whale. 

 

And now I'm deep in thought - who's next  one? Maybe Denim Bunny?
