I've always loved paper and velvet millinery flowers and, happily, they're not just for hats. Their appeal lies partly in that each blossom, bud and leaf is handmade and no two are exactly alike.
Here's a few groups of them I like to display in vintage silver baby cups. They come in so many shades of white!
They also make gorgeous embellishments for festive napkin rings, everlasting headbands for flower girls and attendants in weddings, corsages for proms and are the perfect size for dolls and teddy bears. How would you use them?
I'm linking up with White Wednesday over at
Faded Charm. Be sure to stop by to see more pretty ways to use white.
These are beautiful. Love them in the vintage silver baby cups!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and you have them displayed so nicely. Thanks for playing along today.
