Having a go at making my own tiara, anyone want to see it so far? *UPDATE finished, flash page 2*

Its not my cup of tea, but you are very clever for making your own and am sure you will look lovely in it, well done!

Thankyou

I think it looks lovely and with some more beads/jewels around the base to cover the wire I think it will be fab, make sure you flash us again when it's finished and very well done!

x

Thankyou, i plan to add more stalks and beads at different heights at the front before doing that, ill be sure to flash again yes

My hair is bright red(dyed)! i like how it looks againgt my hair, im wearing it all down on the day, probably st on rollers with lots of volume in the back behind the tiara, if that makes sense?! thankyou for the lovely comment

I really like it, im really unsure of what tiara i want but am liking these styles, flash once u hve finished x

I really like it! Well done you!!?

I'd never be able to do anything like that, i'd love to be able to make my own tiara (as i'd like one with butterflies on to match my theme) but i'd never be able to make it look as pretty and professional as that. I think i'll just stick to making my own stationary!

Where did you get the band from? I wanted to make a tiara for my bridesmaids - but I couldnt find the band to do it. - It looks lovely by the way xx

I think you have done a really good job, well done.

I like most bespoke tiara designers would be able to create you a design with butterflies no problem.

Thanks purrfectgems

No problem. You really have done well going from never made a tiara and wanting to buy one to having got all that done so you have worked hard that's for sure.

Well done you, firstly for having a go, and secondly its lovely. It will be more special to you aswell, and like you said if you dont like it when its done then nevermind

I made my own tiara for my wedding, i wanted it full of beads and it was roughly 4 inch's high in the middle, I wanted it quite old fashioned. I havent got a picture on the computer as i got married in 2004 but well done you

Well done you! x

Sorry to hijack your post?

Thanks, i'll be in touch once i've finally got around to setting a date, probably likely to be November next year and it'll be a turquoise and silver theme.

Well its finished! Im pleased with how its turned out, much better than i thought id manage! i enjoyed it too, sat infront of the tv lol

Well done, I can't believe that is your first effort.

Looks lovely!

Excellent, it looks fab. Well done you. xx

Looks gorgeous well done!

x

Well done it's great don't be tempted to go back and mess around with it.

That looks fab, well done you x

I think that's amazing! ? i would have no chance lol - well done.

Thats fab! Do you mind me being nosey? Where did you get the tiara base and wires and beads from and how long did it take you? What did they cost? I hope to make my own but just want to make sure its feasable. Thanks

Raincloud i spent about £25 ish and still have bits left over............i got it all of various sellers on ebay, thankyou to everyone for the lovely comments, i wont be temped to go back and mess around with it, its been packed away in a storage box so i cant fiddle with it anymore!

Have you wrapped it up in acid free tissue paper to prevent tarnishing? Just being nosey but what materials did you use? Can't tell from the picture if you used Swarovski Crystals and Pearls.

x

Purrfectgems i havnt wrapped it in acid free tissue, would i be able to buy it in a craft shop? i used silver wire, the small crystals are swarovski and the bigger clear ones are just glass.........the pearls are just immitation! xx

You obviously have unearthed a new skill! Looks great! Certainly better than a couple I ordered from so called 'tiara makers' on Ebay when I was first looking around for one!

and you'll feel so fab wearing something you made yourself! And a bargain at £25. Are you going to have a go at making your other jewellery items?

Mrs snow patroller.......im thinking about doing thin bands for my flower girls, just very simple tho. That wont be for a while yet though, iv got all my invitations to finish making first and then my corset to start, once iv lost a bit more weight! lol

You have done an amazing job!! very talented.

Looks great!!

Do you make corsets to order if so could I poss have some info please? x

Fluffymalone.....yes i do make corsets to order, ill PM you with a link to have a look at, im not sure if im allowed to post it on here

Thanks that would be great ?
