Opinions Needed

Shabby Vintage Bridal
Good afternoon, dear readers!
 
We have had some wild weather down here.  The last little thunderstorm left me without internet access, but obviously, it's been restored.  At least the garden seems to be enjoying all the rain.
 
For the special event this month, I will embellish one of the rhinestone barrettes I purchased and offer it as the prize.  Now, just which Valdani Luxury Pearl Silk shall I use to embellish it?
 
 
The choices are S9 "Herb Garden", a lovely variegated green; S49 "Subtle Elegance", a beautiful variegated ivory; S541 "Mauve Orchid", a striking variegated purple; and lastly S93 "Silver Foam", an elegant silver and light grey variegated.  PLEASE leave your choice in the comments section on this blog post as I will begin work on the barrette this weekend!!! 
 
Rosie Fey is a happy puppy.  I gave her a chew hoof and she is busy gnawing away on it at my feet.  I'll have to take some images of her this weekend so y'all can see how much she's grown.  She is almost 5 months old and is growing into a beautiful Catahoula!
 
I have made a little bit of progress on the Mother-of-Pearl brooch, but will probably rip it out as I am not happy with the counts.  It could be better & this is for my mom.  Maybe things will work out better this evening when I work on it.
 
Well, I have got to take Rosie Fey out, so have a marvelous day & until tomorrow~
Happy Tatting!

  1. I love the purple color but all of them would make lovely accents.

  2. I am inclined towards the subtle elegance or the silver foam.

  3. Silver Foam - you want those shiny beads to be the focus, and silver foam would be the perfect complement.

  4. I will have to say Silver Foam, if it's to be a bridal piece. :)

  5. It's a hard choice, they would all be beautiful. Since it's for a bridal collection I think the Silver Foam would be the best.

  7. The purple one caught my eye, but I also think the silver would look fabulous. The pin reminds me of one my mother used to have when I was young......

  9. I like the Silver Foam the best, but all of them would look good. The lighter colors would look good for Bridal usage, but the heavier green and purple would look good for other use. Although, the brighter, heavier colors are starting to be used for bridal occasions.
