Two new items

Hello all,

How are you doing today?  I managed to run almost five miles today - why do we do it to ourselves?  Anyway after watching the great film that is 'Fight Club', I decided I needed to look at something pretty and sparkly before bed.  I also thought I'd share it with you.

Here are my two most recent makes.

The first is a tiara designed with the main feature to be worn on the side.  The main feature is a wire wrapped spray that consists of Swarovski crystals and Swarovski crystal pearls.  The rest of the headband is covered with Swarovski crystal pearls with the middle section embellished with yet more Swarovski crystals.

My second item is a gorgeous bridal hair comb.  I wire wrapped each component separately and formed flowers and leaves using Swarovski crystals, Swarovski crystal pearls, clear quartz chips and silver lined seed beads.  A delicate and elegant piece which can be worn in a variety of ways.

Please let me know if you are interested in ordering these items.  Commissions are welcomed.

Thanks,

New Tiara and Matching Bracelets

Hello,

I hope you are all well today.  I had planned out my day today, sometimes that's the best way for me to get myself organised.  However, I was thrown a bit of a curve ball this morning, so my day didn't quite go according to plan.

I did manage to take some photos of my latest makes though.  Yesterday I made my first ever double band tiara.  I also made two matching bracelets.  It's such a shame that the photos do not do these pieces justice in terms of how beautiful the Swarovski crystals and Swarovski crystal pearls really are.

I used 3mm and 4mm crystal pearls in powder rose, a very subtle dusky rose colour. The tiara also features 4mm crystals in clear AB.  Believe me when I say these little sparklers really catch the light and add a certain wow factor.

The matching bracelets have subtle differences.  One of them is made with the pearls, the AB crystals and some very pretty pale pink Czech crystals.   Whereas the other one features just the pearls and the pale pink Czech crystals.  The bracelets fasten with heart shaped silver coloured toggle clasps.

Both are beautiful and very elegant (even if I do say so myself)  :o)

If you are interested in purchasing these items, or anything interested then please just contact us.

Crystals and Pearls

Hi all,

Today I've been playing with crystal and pearls.

I am trying out a new design using a double band tiara base.

Lovely Swarovski crystal pearls, 3mm and 4mm in powder rose with Swarovski crystals, 4mm in crystal AB.

Delicate but a statement piece in it's own right.  Sometimes less is more, apart from when it comes to the 'sparkle' factor.

Photos to follow soon.

Bye for now,
Annaliese, (TAD)

Welcome to the New Blog

Hello,

My name is Annaliese and I am the main designer for Tatty Angel Designs.

I've been busy over the last couple of days creating new pieces for our Bridal Collection. I've learnt a new beading technique called 'Flat Spiral Peyote.  Using this technique I have created this gorgeous bridal bracelet.  The design includes Swarovski Crystals, Swarovski Crystal Pearls and Seed Beads.

The Swarovski Crystals really catch the light and add that all important sparkle to this piece.

Until my next post, bye.
