Pretty Handmade Lace Crowns and a Giveaway!

 
Some more little sweet lace crowns I finished up the other night.
Made one for my granddaughter Emma,
and one for my puppy dog Prini shown in my last post hehe!
 
I'm really having fun with these!
 
 
 
It's a bit messy, but so fun making them! I love them!
 
 
These are the laces I used for all of the crowns I made.
 
 
This sweet painted baby pink lace crown in the bowl above is....
3 1/4" in Dia x 1 7/8"H x 10 1/2" all around.
It has 18 rhinestone studs all around it.
A strand of tiny pearls lay around the scalloped bottom of the crown, and
a pretty white organza flower with pearls embellishes the front.
I then sprinkled the whole crown with glitter.
 
 
The back side of the crown....sides look the same too.
 
 
Couldn't get the sparkly glitter to show up in the photo's, but it does really sparkle!
Isn't she just darling!?
 
 
This sweet lil lady is done in a pretty white scalloped lace.
She is 4 1/4"Dia x 2 1/2"H x 13 1/2 all around.
There are six rhinestone studs centered in each of the lace flowers in the crown.
Three beautiful rose colored mulberry paper roses embellishes the front.
White and rose colored satin ribbon was woven through the lace
around the bottom of the crown and ties in the back in a bow with long streamers.
She is just sweet! 
 
 
 
The back side of the crown.
 
 
 
This baby I think is my favorite! The same lace was used on this one as the one above.
She is 6 1/4"Dia x 2 1/2"H x 20 1/4" all around.
The front was embellished with baby breath fluffy feathers...
a gorgeous pink satin, organza, lace, and tulle flower with it edges burnt,
and a pretty rhinestone center.
Simple but so pretty!
 
 
 
 
This is the back side.
 
 
This is really sweet too!
This baby is 7"Dia x 1 3/4"H x 20" all around.
The lace was handpainted in a pretty baby blue.
It was sprinkled with glitter.
The front is embellished with those fluffy baby breath like feathers,
and a vintage rhinestone brooch sparkles in the center.
 
Love this one too!
 
 
Simple but stunning and sparkley!
 
 
The back side of the crown.
 
 
And this one is one I made for me. I was going for something kinda antiquey looking.
Still working on this one. Not really sure if I like it or not!
I do love the rhinestone jewel in the front though!
I wanted something like this for one of my mannequins, so I'll keep looking at it
until I come up with the perfect duh moment that will make it just what I was going for!
 
Well, that is it for the moment!
Got some more in the making and several more ideas for prettiness.
 
Will be offering some of these pretties on the website soon!
Almost there! Yea!
 
And one more thing!!!!
I'm going to do a giveaway for a lace crown!
Two ways I'm thinking to do this...
 
(1) the winner will be able to choose the size they want,
the color they want,
and even get some say in how it's designed!
How does that sound!!!?
 
OR.....
 
(2) would it be better just to make one
and offer it up to giveaway!?
 
Let me know what you think to help me decide
on which way to take this!
 
Leave a comment here on my blog on what you think!
 
Idea (1) ?
 
or
 
Idea (2) ?
 
I'll make the decision on which I go based on your responses!
 This Friday, Feb. 8th!
I appreciate it all so much!
 
Stay tuned for the details soon!!! :)
 
Thanks for coming along with me today!
I always love your visits!
 
Hugs and Love and Blessings to you all!
 
TaTa Till Later! XOXO

  4. These are so SO gorgeous and creative! Love them!! I think that it would be fun to let the winner "design" their crown, but either way, whoever wins will be thrilled I'm sure! I really like the look of the antique one you made for yourself! It's different but cool! Love them all really - each has it's own special touches! Have fun creating!! Hugs, Leena
