The flowers. The trees. The grass. The sun. The colours created. The beauty of it all. And I love that we have no control over it all!
And so when I walk around from day to day, it's nature that gets me excited & intrigued. And lots of my creations are based around flowers that I have seen. Or images that I have found of incredible sunsets, beaches, mountains, rainforests. And I'd like to think that people can see the influence of nature in my designs too.
Dawn Tiara
We've all seen those stunning pictures of the most incredible, breath taking sunrises, where you look out across the horizon, and you can literally see the egde of the earth as the sun spreads out inch by inch across it.
Well that's the image I had in my head when I designed & made this tiara. It's only about 2.5cm's tall, and it sweeps across the head, giving a beam of light from one side to the other. It's delicate & pretty; & yet draws attention to itself in a subtle way.
Icicle Tiara
Icicle's are fascinating things! They are so clear & crystal like, they look as though they should be man made glass! I love that each & every individual icicle is different & unique to the one next to it. They are not all uniform in size & shape; and whilst they all work together to create an overall image, each one is special & beautiful in it's own right.


Ok, so I know my icicles are really stalagmites in the fact that they grow upwards, but I'm allowed a bit of artistic license & trickery. And if nothing else "stalagmite tiara" doesn't sound quite so intriguing.
I think this tiara really suits it's name; with each and every icicle being an individual twist, with a crystal sparkly at the end of it & demanding attention.
I hope this has explained 2 of my more popular designs; and if you are a bride who will be wearing one of these tiara's, at least you can hopefully see why it was designed as it was. And will wear it with a tiny bit more pride, as you appreciate the importance of mother nature in your special day.
I'll show you some more examples of designs which have been influenced by nature soon.
