Just a few items to celebrate in style. I love the sparkle of paillettes. They feel like both a holiday standard, yet totally fresh and modern.

Each unique brooch is made from many layers of heavyweight art paper petals assembled by hand into a flower form. The vivid colors and charming patterns come together in a lovely collage of texture and shape. The flowers have then been sealed in a multi-step process to protect them from the elements. Each design is one of a kind.
Flower brooches measure approximately 3″ in diameter and have a pin back.
Inspirations for this collection: poetry & prose, café society, grand libraries, vintage ephemera, fine millinery.
