I love designing things for my family

[lori042499]

My niece is in her first recital next Saturday....

I am creating a nosegay for her and I love how it is coming out...

I am using all kinds of wire, ribbon, butterflies and silk blossoms to bedazzle the nosegay handle and design master paint to jazz up the tule doily.....

I will post a few pics when it is done...

I would probably have to charge 75.00 for this tiny nosegay because of all the details going into it....but it is all those little details that I love putting into things like this that noone ever wants to pay for...

What tactics do you all use to get people to buy into the details and make them realize it really is more beautiful?

The first is a picture of my niece in her costume...

The second is the back of the bouquet, the handle treatment...

The third is the actual bouquet...I love how it came out all bedazzled with glitter and what a match...

I like to call her sweet and sour....one minute she is sweet as pie, the next she can be quite nasty, but I love her just the same...she is 5 going on 25....

She had graduation from preschool today and told my brother that he better dress nice and clean shave for this occasion or else....what a hoot and a firecracker, I keep telling him, just wait til she's 15 or so, watch out, boy!!!

That bouquet is a charmer - And so is she. Did she brag about Aunt Lori's flowers she made just for me?
