I'm working on making this a web store with functional buttones, but until then you can email me with the ID#'s of what you want to buy, and I can invoice you through PayPal. Shipping charges will be applied to the invoice; $3. for one item, add a dollar for each additional item shipped. I have a credit card reader and can also manually type in credit cards for purchases until I get the whole button thing functioning on this site.

11068-this photo doesn't do justice to the color of this hand dyed silk bloom. It has a glass-beaded center and the sits on a ruffle of black cotton Mokuba lace. $22. 11068
11044-The colors of this hand dyed flat silk rose don't photograph as well as they look in person. (The golden through russet hues are rich, but not as garish as they look on screen.) The dark leaf is locally made olive colored grossgrain, and the larger leaf is also hand dyed by me, and ranges from teal closer to the rose to a russet at the tip. Hand painted buds in coordinating colors and a bed of white cotton Mokuba lace complete the ensemble. $24. 11064
   

11076-this large satin rose sits on base of cotton Mokuba lace, and has 4 different colored leaves of grossgrain, hand dyed silk and satin. This pin could make a bold statement on a hat or coat-or even be used to adorn a drapery tie back etc. $20.

11055-by request, a tiny pin! Since pins don't undergo the pressing and flexing of the clip backs, I was able to use all silk in the bright turquise blue bloom, and put a large, lovely freshwater pearl in the center. The pearl is ringed by copper colored glass beads, and the leaves are of hand dyed silk and iridescent grossgrain. $11.

Door/wall hanging ID#10040

This door hanging started with an unusual very wide gold-embroidered ribbon made locally. It features a cascade of various leaves and flowers of various ribbons, and terminates in a faux pearl encrusted tassle. I need to post close ups of this, it's hard to see the details from this distance.
$30.

Hair Comb ID# 11061

This dramatic concoction is backed with a comb, as you can see in the next photo. This was difficult to photograph, as the camera makes the hand dyed silk look too garish than in "real life." The center of this fantasy bloom is adorned with delicate vintage stamens. Holding the stamens is a folded rose of sheer organdy, resing on a ring of petals of black locally made satin. Separating the black flower from it's black tulle ruffle at the base of the composition are petals of deep violet hand-dyed silk and hand dyed silk leaves. $21.

Pin, ID#11013

You really need to see this one up close to apreciate some of the subtlties of the hand dyed slik, especially in the turquoise/blue folded rose peeking out frm under the ivory satin folded rose. The green silk leaf to the right of that rose has a more dramatic range of color, from rust at teh tip to bright green. Several more types of ribbon leaves, a large organza bud, hand-painted buds and some glass beads at the center of the folded rose round out the composition. $25.
