A pretty project made with goodies from my friends at Tresors de Luxe today.
If there is one thing that I have learned throughout my 40 years it's
'Sometimes a girl just needs a crown.' It's true! On days where nothing
seems to be going right, when it's time to clean the house and you're
not feeling terribly glam, and even when you DO feel a bit
oh-so-pretty... a crown makes everything better. I usually find myself
wearing crowns on Sunday while folding laundry.
And because you can not possibly have too many crowns, here is my newest one...
I am smitten with the pretty thing (if I do say so myself!). I do not think this is a chore crown, but suspect this is a lazing in bed and reading a good book crown. If anyone should come into my room and see me wearing this lovely thing, they will immediately know that I should be left alone and quietly leave the room without disturbing me (unless they come bearing tea and biscuits).
This headpiece was created with a length of Ivory Guipure Lace which was tea-stained and starched. To the front of the crown I added Ivory Lace Applique then embellished the heck out of it with Dusty Rose Fabric Shabby Chic Roses and White Fabric Shabby Chic Roses before sewing on a slew of pearls in various coordinating colours to finish it off.
I highly recommend making and wearing a lace crown... maybe even creating a whole collection, one for every occasion!
