"The magnolias you made for my wedding cake are probably my favorite detail from our wedding day--- they are stunning... I know I will have them forever. I gave one to my mother in a shadow box as a thank you for making my day so wonderful, and I will be giving one to my mother-in-law in a shadow box for her birthday... They makes such sentinmental gifts, as they once graced the top of our wedding cake :) The other blooms are now prominently placed in my china cabinet for everyone to see and enjoy... They make me smile!" -Heather

leather chanel camelia inspired paper flowers

The flowers are roses,camelias and lilies.

Glamelia Wedding Bouquet

Glamelia's date back to the 40 & 50's. Designing a glamelia is old school artistry. They are handmade from invidividual rose petals or other flower petals and crafted to look like one large bloom. The design can be tedious and time consuming but make for beautiful bouquets or corsages.

When a bride whose wedding is in Mexico ordered one I was totally thrilled I had done these in a different style for another bride a long time ago this time the order was in ivory and the brides wanted a different style.The flower measure more than 8 inches across!

Fresh Glamelia's are notorious for not lasting at all after the wedding but this one in paper would be a great keepsake after the wedding!
