We Love Custom Work! Accessories for a Sweet Pink Baptism

Earlier this year, I had the great delight of working with Suzanne from Fanciful Events, who was in the throes of planning a celebration of her daughter's baptism.  The Vintage Pink Bunny christening party she designed was absolutely exquisite, and we're delighted to have had a small part in helping to put it together!

We at Tradewind Tiaras designed four accessories for the celebration.

The first was a beautiful crown incorporating a Swarovski crystal cross.  We made this one with an open back and built-in loops, so the crown could be connected in the back with a ribbon and adjustable, and worn and enjoyed for many years.  The colors of the party were soft pinks and whites, so we used white silk flowers with pale pink genuine pearl centers and crystal AB Swarovski crystal accents.  (The iridescence of the Aurora Borealis coating on the clear crystals picked up on the pale pinks without screaming PINK!)


We also designed a softer headband with a removable singed flower clip in pale pinks for the guest of honor to wear comfortably through the rest of the party.


And because the guest of honor had an older sister who simply couldn't be left out of the fun, we designed a tiara (based on the tiaras for the Cornish Fairy Party) and a set of singed flower hair clips for her.




I love getting to flex my creative muscles and create custom work!

Be sure you head over to Fanciful Events to see all the details of this gorgeous party.  Its soft palette, sweet bunny theme, and many fabulous details makes it a perfect inspiration for Easter or any spring celebration!

  5. Your body needs energy to heal itself. Your goals need energy in order to manifest. Crystals serve to amplify your own energy so that your body can heal itself faster, and you have the energy that you need to bring your goals to fruition.
