We Love Custom Work! A Wish for a Birthday Tiara

We love working with brides here at Tradewind Tiaras, of course.  But it's so much fun when I get the chance to mix things up and design a special custom tiara for a different kind of event.

When Paula from Frog Prince Paperie told me the theme for her daughter's birthday, Make a Wish, I was completely enchanted.  I immediately started imagining a fabulously sparkly, pink and silver tiara (because that's what color wishes are, according to the birthday girl--how precious!).  This is what we came up with:

Is she not the cutest, happiest, sweetest little thing you've ever seen?  I just LOVE this photo (by the talented photographer John McLaughlin).

I'm happy to report that the birthday girl loved her sparkling crown, and I'm delighted we had a chance to help her wishes come true!

You really must see the rest of the photos from this utterly amazing Make a Wish party.  Every detail is better than the last.  I'm honored to have played my small part in this celebration.  Thanks for the opportunity, Paula!

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!
