This is the new Tray I have been working on. I used my French Crown design on burlap. It is as functional as it is beautiful!
I just made these yesterday! They are my new line of "Petite Topiaries". They are feminine and dainty in size, yet make a bold and elegant statement. Displaying them on these pretty silver stands is a great way to vary their heights and really make them stand out.
They will be available on my French Etsy shop soon. If you would like to place a custom order, please e-mail me.
To make this "Petite Placecard Topiary" I have used preserved moss and a real twig that I found in my garden. When I found these egg cups, I knew they were the perfect base that I was looking for. Their crisp white color adds an elegance and balances out the natural look of the topiary. I have added wire to the top so that you can use it as placecard holder. If you would prefer it without the wire, just let me know!
To make this "Petite Floral Topiary" I have used over 50 gorgeous paper flowers, a real twig and preseved moss at the base. I think it is so elegant and would make a lovely addition to any niche, decorative shelf or garden room.
To make this "Bird Topiary" I have used a beautiful white dove, a petite nest at the base and a real twig.
You can use it not only as a decorative piece, but you can see the idea I had to cut a small piece of cardstock and either add the placecard on top of the nest or leaning against the base of the egg cup.
They also look pretty against the burlap. It adds a rustic touch that goes along with the outdoor feel of the twigs, paper flowers, moss, birds and nests that are in the details of the topiaries. My three designs are all very cohesive and add an upscale, French cottage look.
This is another one of the new items I have been working on this week. They will be available in sets of 6. I have taken beautiful French reproduction wine corks and turned them in to "Cork Placecard Holders" Here I displayed a small photograph of my Grandmother. You could use a photograph of each of your guests at each place setting. How original and what a great way to make your guests feel special!
Each "Cork Placecard Holder" will come with a Maple Placecard, another unique touch to add. Here I have stamped the card with a pretty French stamp to give an idea of what you can add.
If you would like the cards to be stamped with specific intials or French Designs, you can e-mail me for a custom order.
You can see how all of my new items all coordinate with one another.
This is a fun and whimsical idea. I used a petite galvanized pail and filled it with sand. I then added a real twig and maple card and held it together with a miniature clothespin. What a fun accent to add to a beach party.
Here is a great idea! Take an Apothecary Jar and a piece of 2" burlap. Then use a rubber stamp, I used the initial A. It makes a great customized gift to give. To add an extra detail, tie a piece of twine around the lid and add a small starfish.
All of my items are handmade and therfore, no two will be identical.
If you would like to order any of the items above, please e-mail me. Custom orders are welcome...
