New Listing on Etsy: Succulents

Have you ever noticed how beautiful a Succulent is? Succulents are also called organic beauties and they are becoming more and more popular not only for weddings but also for decorations like centerpieces.
So recently I met a baker and she asked me to create some succulent flowers to decorate a cake she has planned to put on a window on her shop. So I stopped at my local floral store and saw a variety of them, but there was one in particular that stunned me! I came home and started to work on my first succulent flower. To be honest, the first one did not look like a succulent at all! So the second try came out better, working more on the edges and then finishing with a touch of color. Here are the pictures:

Check more pictures at my Etsy Store! The new listing is up, you can order as a set of three or you can email for a custom order.

Bridal Show

I was so happy to be a part of The Everything Bridal Show this year, which was hosted at the Hy-Vee Conference Center in West Des Moines.  A successful event and great exposure for Cold Porcelain Art!

 

I was looking forward to this event so this year I had some new and colorful creations like this exotic orange cymbidium orchid with lily of the valley cake topper.

 

Others were more unique like place card holders which can add some romanticism to your table décor but also can be used as a wedding favor.

I had a great time, not only setting up appointments while hearing love stories but also helping with new ideas on how to choose a luxury option like cold porcelain flowers that will bring memories of an eternal love!

What a romantic day I had!!!

Going International!

This summer has been very busy and fun for me, orders for weddings are -by far- what I have been working on the most. But a few weeks ago something new and exciting came with an order request... and that was for the flowers to be shipped to Australia!!!

So YES, it is now official, Cold Porcelain Art is now international! J

You see, when I started this blog, my first posting titled “Blogging World… Here I come!” talked about how I never imagined being blogging. Well, after just over a year, and incorporating Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Etsy into the mix, you can probably understand why I consider this to be a milestone. Online “global reach” has a new and real meaning to me!

This client’s request was to create red and pink poppies, green hydrangeas, white gardenias and white dogwood flowers. I had so much fun creating them, specially the red/black contrast obtained with the poppies, definitely an eye catcher! Here is a picture of the red poppy and white gardenias.
