Playing around with silk dupion is fun but I also got sent some purple lace as well from Bound by Obsession.
I have always wondered what kanzashi would look like made from lace and at first I was a little hesitant to cut up this lovely lace but I bit the bullet.
And now it is time to make the kanzashi.
The flower at the back is not a kanzashi but a rose that I made because it dawned on me that I may need some more substantial flowers in my bouquet.
What do you think?

I LOVE the idea of lace kanzashi! I think it needs something extra to break up the blue though, because right now it's kinda hard to see different parts of the flowers. Maybe a white pearl in the middle? Or white lace inside?
They are the unfinished article and I do plan to place an ivory pearl in the middle. It fits in with my pearl necklace and earrings I plan to wear.
I really have trouble capturing the colour of this lace as it is suppose to be purple but no matter what I do it looks blue.
Wow, the lace kanzashi turned out really well! Really lovely idea :)
They turned out better then I first thought! They will look even better if I make them larger for the bouquet.
They look awesome!! I can't wait to see them finished and all together :) more supplies on the way!!
Yep I'll be including the lace roses into my bouquet and then use any remaining lace to decorate the back and handle of the bouquet.
