Ribbon Love ♥

You may have already guessed this, but I am a girly girl. I love all things pink. OK, maybe not baby pink but fun berry shades of pink. I love hearts, I love flowers and things that sparkle make my heart flutter. But really, is there anything more girly than ribbons?

I have been devouring ribbons lately. Particularly beautiful, hand-dyed silk ribbons. With their soft crinkly texture and smooth color gradations these handmade lovelies add a touch of elegance to any design.

Here are a couple of my own designs featuring Flame Kissed Art Glass's captivating hand dyed silk ribbons.

The Garden Path by Lisalu Jewels (SOLD)

This necklace features a gorgeous handcrafted ceramic pendant by Shaterra Clay Studios. I have combined it with freshwater pearls, Vintaj natural brass chain and of course, a beautiful silk ribbon in earthy shades of gold and green.

Black Tie Surprise by Lisalu Jewels

This necklace features a set of stunning handcrafted lampwork beads by IrinaS. These citrusy hued works of glass art came all the way from Croatia! I have combined them with Swarovski pearls, a Thai silver toggle clasp and a sleek black silk ribbon.

Sugar Me Sweet by Lisalu Jewels

You may recognize this necklace from my last blog post. This necklace was my entry for the February, Love My Art Jewelry challenge. It features a polymer clay pendant by Cindy Gimbrone combined with enamel and lampwork beads and finished with a delicious coral and pink silk ribbon.

I have a colorful stash of silk ribbons just waiting to be made into something pretty and oh-so-girly.

Sparkle and shine girly girls!
