Day 130 ~ One A day Challenge ~ Asymetrical Floral tiara

Having developed thes wire work flowers for decorating wedding cakes, I decided to adapt them and create tiaras with them as well. This is the first of the wire work tiaras and I am really pleased with the contemporary look. The band is covered in small glass pearls.

It's a discovery day ~ Moonbeam Mosaics ~ mosaic crosses

These stunnin mosaic crosses really caught my eye as I browsed through my blogger dashboard today. The one above made with the honey suckle pattern reminds me of posh sunday teas with cups and saucers as we had the same tea set.

The mosaics are made by Diane of Moonbeam Mosaics who knits, crochets and crafts as well as making beautiful mosaics.


I think the celtic shape and rustic look of the crosses is very appealing.

My favourite ~ the colours and sentiments are perfect.
