Burgundy Leaf with Embroidered Gold Barrette

This barrette is made with wool felt, and is embroidered by hand with chain stitches in gold metallic thread. I'm fascinated with leaf veins!

First Blog Post and my Sunflower Barrette!

Hi everyone! So I decided to start a blog to post my creations, and my endeavors to get my barrettes in stores!

Above is one of my barrettes. I should also make it a pin though, not everyone wants to wear a huge sunflower on their head.

The flower petals are made of wool/nylon felt, and the center is a snake pattern stamped onto cow leather.

Sunflowers are one of my favorite flowers (next to orchids). I grow them every spring at my parents house, and in the summer they are so huge and beautiful! I recently got a neighborhood garden plot, so I'm excited to start growing sunflowers their too.
