Shabby Romantic-Oh So Pink-Heart and Roses Ring Pillow-Est Monte le Coeur-Rose Heart


With a simple question and an answer, your world has completely changed. And just as every love affair has its own story, so does every wedding. Piece by piece, every bride puts together her wedding until a beautiful whole emerges-family heirlooms that grow more precious with each use, fine fabrics old and new, flowers of breathtaking beauty. Veils, jewelry, gloves, shoes, lingerie, handbags, ring pillows-every detail charged with meaning.

Let Est Monté le Coeur-Rose Heart© take its place among those many things that have meaning for your romantic wedding-now and for the generations to come.

Created from Crystal Pink silk dupioni, Rose Heart© is a singular expression of romantic shabby chic for your most romantic day. Covered with ribbon roses in shades of pink, rose and ivory with a glint of gold here and there, this ring pillow is a one of a kind creation.

Hand stitched to the upper curves of the heart is a matching set of handmade linen lace fragments that were rescued from the cuffs of a Victorian afternoon tea dress. They are light ivory and match the light ivory ribbon roses that adorn Rose Heart©.

The pillow measures about 7 1/2 inches long and about 8 1/2 inches across at the widest part of the heart not including the lace.The lace, which measures 2 1/2 inches wide is embroidered with flowers in pink and pale ivory. There is an organza hand strap on the back of the pillow made from pink ribbon that measures 1 1/2 inches wide.

This ring pillow was made not only for your wedding but to adorn your home as well. We hope that you will honor it with a prominent place in your home and that every glance in its direction will bring back memories of your wedding day, an occasion so precious and special that Queen Victoria deemed it "the happiest day of my life."

NO PART OF THIS PIECE HAS BEEN GLUED--EVERY PIECE OF TRIM AND EVERY BOW HAS BEEN SEWN ON SO THERE IS NO CHANCE OF LOOSING ANY PART OF THE TRIM.

Time to Get Colorful!




Nothing is more inspiring for me than sitting on the floor surrounded by colorful fabrics. When I'm low on inspiration-I open up the trunks and bins and start to rummage and in no time...an idea is born....

Today's idea is lavender, purple and pink....maybe some pearlyivory, whiteish something thrown in............... cupids....and gold....renaissancey cupids.......save that for tomorrow!
