MISI MARVELS

Roses are red......and yellow, and pink, and orange, and brown, and purple, and white.....

As you might have guessed this weeks Misi Marvels theme is going to be...."ROSES". I love roses - my favourites being yellow ones. I also like blue ones, but sadly they dont exist naturally! - however, in the world of creativity and crafting you can find them in any colour. They are found in abundance in vintage fabrics and designs, in jewellery, paintings and sculpture. Ive put together a selection of items Ive found all featuring the rose, I hope you like them. I think this has been my favourite MM so far as I just loved browsing the search results and have found some truly beautiful items! So lets begin with all things rosey....

This beautiful and exquisite "tattered rose statement" bib necklace by cocoangelrose


I love this delicate vintage inspired bracelet of green porcelain roses, made by magpies.


 Next up is this gorgeous vintage mannequin in a fabric of Victorian roses in dusky pinks, from vintagemannequins.

This is a stunning bridal hair comb with polymer clay purple roses, made by Makush.


Beautiful rosy bow brooch with a lovely combination of baby blues and pastel pinks, by LoveHector.


This is an adorable handcrafted teddy bear, made from cream and blue rose linen fabric by BubsBears.


"Lover's Meeting" is a gorgeous original watercolour painting of an orange rose, by mosart.


These polymer clay roses are a lovely deep red and look great with the glass beads and filigree leaves on this charm bracelet from enchanted handmade jewellery.


This is an elegant felt beret with an exquisitely crafted grey, cream and black rose collage in needlefelting, "Misty Roses" is by Soosun.

A gorgeous vintage handbag in pretty floral fabric, embellished with lace and 3 fabric roses, made by Knitting Pretty.


Pretty and stylish, detailed vintage style Rosa earrings in yellow and cerise pink by Alice Taylor Jewellery.


In two of my favourite colours, this pretty memory wire bracelet features fimo bright red roses, from Ciren's Call.


Glamorous hair vine with swarovski crystals and white+cerise roses, from Kal's Return Jewellery.


Beautiful, vintage style pincushion and needlecase from CalicoThreads.


Thats the selection for my 'roses' theme this week, hope you've enjoyed seeing my finds as much as i did choosing them. Again there is so much talent on Misi there are always more than I can feature in one post, but I thnk ive managed to pull together a good selection. Im now off to continue preparing for my craft fair in a week today! eeeek! Visited Hobby Craft today and thursday and had to resist buying half the shop again :). I hope Im going to get it all done, will post some pics of my items shortly. Thanks for reading!
