Wedding Blog
I sometimes get an idea in my head, and become a little obsessed with that idea until I attain or obtain exactly what I’m looking for. Lately, this idea is a funky and colorful (but not overly loud) adornment for my hair at our reception.
I’ll be wearing a veil for the ceremony and photos, but I’d like to add a little bit of fun hair-flair for the reception. I have found flowers and crystals and feathers (oh, my!), but nothing has yet tickled my fancy.
While doing my nightly wedding blog reading last night, I came across a possible solution to my hair-flair search. Lynn at Handcrafted posted about some adorable flower brooches from Piper Ewan’s Etsy shop. They are exactly what I have been picturing! Just look at how fabulous these are:
Designer Kirsten Moore says she will take special orders if you ask nicely 
Her prices are extremely reasonable for such beautiful hand-crafted creations, and she also has some funky, unique garters on her site. I think I am going to have to figure out exactly what I want my hair-flair to look like and have Kirsten make me a Piper Ewan original!
Has anyone else been searching for a unique accessory that they can’t quite find just yet? Maybe the hive can lend you a hand!

Ah! Cupcake, I love that too! I just bookmarked it! Great minds think alike. 
I had a similar obsession with Jennifer Behr. I searched everywhere for something similar to one of her pieces and even contemplated a little DIY action, but when Daily Candy sent me a 30% discount code, I had to make it mine!
I love that green one…
So funny, I was just looking at these flowers yesterday and thinking how lovely they are. I can’t wait to see what she creates for you– it’s going to be so pretty!
I’m not sure if you’ve tried this, yet, but do a search for hair fascinators. (Usually they can be both clipped in the hair, or on a piece of clothing - double-duty!) I’ve seen “bridal” pieces and fun, funky, colorful ones too!
those colors are amazing! that should look great for a reception.
i recently received one of kirsten’s garters in the mail and it is GORGEOUS. service was fast and courteous, too.
I am so happy that I could help! I’m also glad to know I’m not the only one to think these are fantastic. Thanks for the link back to me.
pattyb- Kirsten’s Etsy shop says the flower will easily stay in with a few bobby pins. We shall see, I guess!
Lynn- No problem! Thanks for introducing me to this awesome Etsy shop!

About Me: Mr. Cupcake and I hit it off at a Halloween party and immediately began a long-distance relationship. After two years, he moved to my neck of the woods, and a year and a half after that, he proposed at the “place we fell in love.” I am a true perfectionist who enjoys designing and creating more work for myself, so wedding planning is my perfect outlet. Mr. Cupcake and I are both old souls, and we hope to weave that aspect of our personalities into our wedding day.
