Jewelry Headband - Serena Flower, Double Layered

Because this is a jewelry headband, I wonder if Blaire Waldorf will like it. LOL.

Made in Malaysia (I meant both baby and the jewelry headband, lol.)

So I did not highjack the variation from Serena Flower Studs then. Instead of using elastic lace headband, I've opted the stronger base, and I thought the focal was too big, it is actually, quite alright when it's on my baby girl's head. :)

She's cute, isn't she? I simply can't take my eyes off her. So this marked the 3rd jewelry headband I have made for her, I already am planning for the next design! :D

Note: This is a variation of Serena Flower Studs / Post Earrings design. Tutorial is available for download at 50% + 20% further discount now:

Can't wait to start my next project. Artists who has daughter, are you just as crazy? LOL.

Double Layer Serena Flower - Wire Jewelry Variation

This is the variation I have been working on since I've published Serena Flower Studs / Post Earrings tutorial. By using the same workflow, I've created a dual layer of it, a layer with larger petals at the back. I was thinking to make this into another headband so my baby could wear it for our friend's wedding next month.

A glance of it in my palm:

Behind the scene:

Jewelry Measurement: 4.5cm diameter, 9.4gram.

A little too heavy for baby's headband isn't it? I am wondering if I should go ahead with the plan, or I should turn this into a ring or bracelet.

If it's going to be a ring, then this is how it should look like:

If it's going to be a bracelet...

Hmm. Decision, decision.
Let me have some thoughts about it before I decide.

I shall post a finalized piece then. Meanwhile, hope you had fun viewing.

Serena Flower Studs and Jewelry Headband - Malaysia Wire Jewelry

Greetings from Malaysia.

Noticed that I didn't wear the design and have some photoshoots? I hesitated because:
1. I have put on weight becoming a mother, I am still in the midst of losing them. I thought I would lose them first before I post photo of myself again. :P

2. Because I do not have time to reproduce the design, I stole the anti-clockwise side of the earrings and turned it into jewelry headband for my baby so that she could wear it for her cousin's birthday party.

3. I still haven't reproduce the anti-clockwise side of the earring, hence, I do not have a pair of earrings to show as of today.

But request came in early. I have to let people know how does it look like when worn.

So here it is. Serena Flower Studs Earrings, absolutely easy to be modified and made into jewelry headband, too.

The anti-clockwise side of earring is now a jewelry headband. And it belongs to my little princess now.

As for the back of the design - I promise it's not bulky. It is as flat/lean/clean as you could ever want it to be. :)

I do hope you are happy to see me again. :)

Wire Jewelry: Serena Flower Studs

Design name: Serena Flower Studs.
Inspired by Serena Van Der Woodsen from Gossip Girl. :)

I made this pair of earrings for Mother's Day 2012, I revised the design and then decided to write a tutorial constructing it. They are easy to make, though the weaving process could be time consuming, but it is going to worth your while.

In case you didn't realized, I am very particular in making the left side and right side of earrings look "right" and "balance". I shall reveal how the design is mirrored.

I have also made a jewelry headband for my 3 months old daughter, by applying very minimal of modification, and then sew it onto an elastic lace. She looks absolutely adorable in it, and I am planning my next project - to create another variation for yet another jewelry headband. :)

I can't believe my life is about dolling up my little one now. :P
