I LOVE THIS! I have been looking for something like this to hang in my daughter’s room! LOVELY!!
This is so cool, Angie! It’s perfect for a girl’s room or a patio, so light and airy.
400 petals!? It looks like a lot of work but worth it in the end – it turned out so pretty!
Such a cute idea! I love finding fun sewing projects using stuff other than fabric!
beautiful!
stopping by from csi!
this is adorable!!! love the fun and frilly look! it would be so cute pink, too! 🙂
thanks for showing this project!!! I am currently trying to figure out how to make a capiz shell (short) chandy for our office- this makes a lot more sense than what I was thinking of doing! Thanks for sharing! found you through the CSI project!
You have way to much talent! 🙂
Something out of a magazine…
Take care,
Lisa

When I saw the first photo I could not tell for sure if it was yours or a catalog. Brilliant idea to use rose petals…genius! Glad you added this to my party 🙂
You are a genius, Angie! Just stumbled this… and I think it is darling!
I love it and woman you are soooo smart!

This is WONDERFUL, you absolutely nailed it! Really great job dear!
What are your recommendations for making this on a larger scale? I love this but i am not for sure about the measurements. I am wanting to use this for my wedding alter. I was thinking instead of 9 rose doing 18… thoughts?
Christine,
I would go with two tiwers instead of 3. A medium and small. Skip the large. I think it would still look gorgeous but be smaller!

I love this Angie! You did a great job recreating this.
Did you have any problems with sewing the peddles? I keep braking my thread…. just wondering if it is me or the thread 🙂
I didn’t have any trouble at all Christine. It did not break once. And I sewed them like really fast. I hope that helps! 🙂
fabulous! thx for sharing!!
I’m so crazy about this project!! It’s a perfect wedding detail for brides on a budget. Thanks for the idea!
