Poise & Petite Hair Clip and Brooch

30 Mar, 2010 by in vintage 38 comments

Today’s Etsy giveaway is from FloraBond…Busy mom and lover of vintage and handmade! Livin in Idaho, but from Tacoma/Seattle area and miss it!! Hello everyone in Seattle, I miss you and the shopping!
Flora Bond was started in September of 2008, and soon after started a line of vintage fabric flower necklaces and accessories.

My passion is to design custom wedding necklaces and millinery. Flora Bond has done many custom wedding designs and would be happy to help put together a wonderful necklace to accent your dress. Necklaces and accessories are designed around the fabric, neckline, and color of your dress.

I would love to help create a special custom Flora Bond necklace, brooch, earrings, hairpiece or bracelet. A purchase with me is a personal and special experience. You tell me your thoughts, I convo you options, then you tell me your ideas and thoughts on my options etc. We work together and create an amazing Flora Bond design.

My rosettes are handmade using 5 different methods depending on the look I am after and the fabric used. They are secured to a backing sometimes and then always, needle sculpted (hand stitched through the flowers) until they are perfection! Hard work I know, but so worth it! Every necklace has a soft cotton backing.

90% of my fabrics are vintage/repurposed and 95% of my chains are vintage. I make an effort to describe what goes into my designs so you know how hard I work and just how wonderful the components and fabrics are. Thank you for your support!!
Feel free to convo me anytime with a question or even to say hi!

Flora Bond fabric necklaces are in Boutiques in the USA, Japan, and in the cutest little high end boutique Lemon Meringue downtown IF. My Necklaces are also featured for sale at the Craft and Folk Art Museum in CA, and also in Richmond, Virginia. www.quirkgallery.com
