Happy flight
A brooch made with natural, cruelty free feathers.
The technique : two round pieces of black felt and a brooch.
Into the first one I sewed the brooch. Into the other one natural feathers of different colours.
The dominant colours are brown, chestnut, grey and black.
They are topped by three items of wood (red, orange and yellow) and several small beads of different colours.
The composition admits a combination with any type of colour.
It is perfect for chestnut, orange and yellow, which happen to be the fashion trends of the season.

A harmony of subtle colours.
I made this brooch with exceptional natural feathers. These cruelty free plumes come in an exciting range of chestnut nuances and some of them are greenish.
The feathers were sewn onto a roundel of felt. The composition is topped by four beads of beige and brown colours. The brooch was sewn onto another roundel.
It's perfect for a white revers or dress if you are looking for a higher contrast.
Always place it to the left side, quite high, near the shoulder...
It will strike the eye !

The way you dress tells a lot about yourself.
Do you want to give a boost to your confidence, your mood or your career ?
I suggest you start with the way you dress. Try to make a natural choice for yourself, that fits you well and that also meets the challenges of a particular day.
The right outfit will augment your confidence and make you feel happy. The opposite is also true and could lead to some hiding away, feeling tired or withdrawal.
Already a simple move as changing colours could have huge effects.
Blue usually inspires intelligence, loyalty, honesty.
Green stands for calm, relaxing, peaceful, hopeful, efficient.
Black gives a strong signal, is dignified but also at times a bit cold.
Red can stimulate sex appeal but also points to power.
Do you have commercial goals ? Don't dress too flashy, it might have an adverse effect.
A too expensive watch, necklace or earrings could make your (potential) client think that he/she is going to have to overpay for the services offered.
Our brain is conditioned by experiences, sights, first impressions and smells. The right choice of clothes, perfumes and accessories can open up exciting opportunities.
Do you want to change your life ? It could be wise to reconsider what you are wearing.

This rainbow necklace is ideal for any dress or smooth shirt, no matter what colour.
The moment you put this necklace around your neck, it makes you thrill with optimism.

Hot...
My Spanish blog names this unique collar "Bolitas calientes"
Haga clic para una versión española
Such a title might induce second thoughts. However I just wanted to voice the warm shades of colour of its composition.
The collar is made of two strips of crochet. In one of them I sewed the black and sparkling beads as well as the small soft tassels.
The other one covers the stitches and brings out the collar in full relief.
With this technique the collar perfectly fits the neck and doesn't move.
Are you sometimes suffering from any neck pains ?
This exceptional creation doesn't put any weight on the neck and it shines you out.
The collar is topped by two flowers of felt. The complete piece combines wonderfully well with black, the whole range of grey tones, and of course also with flaming red or rose-red.
