Here are some more flowers i have made,  I chose all different types of colors and fabrics and embellishments. I got my inspiration from Jennings644 on YouTube. If you have any questions please feel free to leave a comment  xx

Natural Nails

These are my natural nails, I have used as a base coat Sally Hansen Miracle Cure, Avon in Fushia, then added some bow and flower stickers, to that a top coat of Seche Vite.

Altered Gift Box #3


Here i altered a small round paper mache box. It was for a gift i was giving to my sister-in-law. For the lid i painted inside with white acrylic paint, then added  lace around the rim in white and a thinner piece of trim in pink also to that some flat back pearls and rhinestones, cut out and adhered a piece of pattered paper with some white pearl trim around the top edge. Added a small white doily, a glittery pink foam circle, a pink and white bow in cotton material,and a acrylic flower with a rhinestone in the center.
For the base i used white acrylic paint inside as well, then pink for the outside, to the inside i added some white satin material and felt with a pink acrylic flower, and a gold heart necklace with dolphins i had bought as a gift to my sister-in-law.

First Handmade Flower

This is my first handmade flower, thanks to Jennings644 on YouTube for the encouragement to just have a go. It is three layered with white lace, black cotton material and a small section i cut from a doily. I then glued some rhinestones in each petal and added a pink acrylic flower to the center with a smaller embellishment to that. Then i added some feathers and made my own rhinestone spray.
