MONKEYGRAPHY
And below are some of my favorite photos from his collection. What an amazing talent!
BRIDAL BOUQUET WITH VINTAGE ENAMEL FLOWER BROOCHES & EARRINGS by SARAH COVENTRY
The white and gold colours are combined together gracefully and I love that it'd be so easy to match. To give the bouquet a brighter look, I added some white cockle and bubble shells and on that beautiful flower cluster shine a huge gold ribbon water lily as a focal point with its center full of white cultured pearls and crystals. Dreamingly scattered throughout the bouquet are gold glass pearls and gold cultured pearls. The gold tone petals of the water lily brooches and those glass and cultured pearls catch the light superbly they will make the bouquet shimmering beautifully under the sun or under the light when you walk down the aisle.
To finish the bouquet off, I wrapped the handle with white satin ribbon, gave it a beautiful white lace backing and add a huge dreamingly sparkling gold sheer ribbon bow with a stunning vintage button in the middle.
For the groom, I made this boutonniere to match. Again, it's a combination of a Sarah Coventry's water lily earring, two bubble shells and some gold glass pearls. I also added some artificial grass and some dry reindeer moss for a graceful natural look.
I was so happy with the material I used to make this set that I started to collect more Sarah Coventry's vintage brooches and earrings. Why I didn't notice her beautiful jewellery before???
