Spring has seemed to take a long time coming to Connecticut this year. Now that it's finally here, I find myself drawn to the new blooms, and, naturally, just had to make some floral pieces. I really enjoy the delicacy of the flowers and leaves on this small scale. The first photos show some roses as well as my new morning glories - love the way the morning glories ruffle and curve! I think the Ikat cane makes a nice background.
When the first pendants came out of the oven, I wondered what they would look like with some sort of background, perhaps a ruffle or lace, framing the pieces. Some experimenting with folding and bending Skinner blends led to the lacey waves evident in the last three photos.
