DIY Pearl Brooch with Rocking Horse

So I have another blog on weebly, and I decided to switch to blog-spot  I belive it's a little bit more interactive and easier to manage. Beside's most of my favorite blogs are on blogspot and I can follow them! This post is basically a copy and paste form my old blog. Enjoy!


Hello Lovelies,
So here it is as promised, my tutorial on how to make a pearl brooch with a rocking horse. I was inspired by Meadham Kirchoff and their super cute and funky style. I'm so in love with everything they create!! I'm such a Meadham groupie!! I love their use of pastel colors, tulle, lace, and cute ribbons.




          

Lets get started!

Most of the materials you will be able to find them at the dollar store. I found the pearl string and rocking horse in the baby shower/birthday section. Also, you can find pearls  at Michael's or just use an old pearl necklace. Make sure that the hot glue you are using says that it can glue wood, fabric, and metal. The hot glue I used I found it at Michael's  in their floral section.

























Ta-daaa!! This is what your pearl brooch should look like!
You can wear it on your blouse or you can use it as a collar clip!
Please let me know if yo have any questions, comment below.

"The girl with the flower psychosis"

I think I have a small problem, all I seem to want are floral prints. I think I'am the girl with the flower psychosis. I just bought two new floral fabrics this week and all I seem to want to do is floral headbands.
With that being said, I also made a detachable collar with this super cute floral fabric! Maybe it's because spring is the air that I've been so obsessed.




 You can purchase this collar on my etsy.com/shop/voxpopuli77

I also made this floral dress my sophomore year in fashion school, I really must say this is my favorite!
I might sell it on my etsy some time soon!  It's made from a floral black fabric that  I purchased sometime back in 2009. It's a strapless heart shaped top with a gathered skirt.






And last but not least the floral headband!




I sent some accessories this weekend to this wonderful stylish girl I met through instagram, and she kindly agreed to model them for me! She is the sweetest and she has such a cute style! I can't wait to see pictures and as soon as they are ready I will post them!
