Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue....and something handmade

5/18/2017

We love a wedding here at Muswell Hill Creatives.  We think having something that has been lovingly handmade by a local designer or maker will make your day even more special and it will make the gift you give that bit more precious too.  In this blog, we're romancing you with some handmade pieces to inspire you this wedding season.

Bridal range by Goldust Millinery

​
​Shelley Zetuni makes beautiful Goldust Millinery headpieces from her studio in the Hornsey Town Hall Arts Centre.  Shelley was trained by milliner to the late Queen Mother, Rose Cory.  One of her hats was worn recently at an Easter church service by Princess Eugenie.  Shelley marries traditional millinery techniques with contemporary styling and materials to create individual, vibrant hats and headpieces. 
​Shelley's bridal range works for a bride looking for something a bit different and for those very important mothers of the bride!


​The Iris bridal headpiece (shown right) is guaranteed to add that extra bit of pizazz to any bridal outfit.  Iris is made from pleated and flat crinoline embellished with delicate little embroidered daisies. The piece sits on a regular hairband and as such should suit everyone, feel comfortable, work with most bridal hairstyles and most importantly, make you look and feel fabulous.

​Price 185 + shipping

The showstopping Amy headpiece is ideal for a modern bride who is looking for something a bit more edgy.

This piece is made using our signature feather Pom Pom in fuscia which sits comfortably on the left side of the head.

This piece will compliment most bridal outfits and is a contemporary alternative to a hat or a veil. This piece is on a regular hairband and as such should suit all face shapes, feel comfortable, work with most bridal hairstyles and most importantly, look fantastic!

​The Little Cloth Shop's heirloom childrenswear

​
​Caroline of The Little Cloth  Shop designs and makes vintage inspired childrenswear in her Crouch End home  using traditional tailoring techniques.  She has grown up with a passion for sewing and creating.  Her mother was a tailor and her grandmother a skilled seamstress.

​Caroline's traditional nautical outfits give a nod to vintage English designs and royal babies.  The sailor dress (left) is made from beautifully soft linen in a light powder blue and fully lined in cotton lawn.  Perfect for a relaxed bridesmaid look or for a little wedding guest.  £40 + delivery.

The little sailor suit (right) is made and lined in 100% cotton and would look great worn by a ring bearer or page boy. 

​£50 + shipping.

​This beautiful boho party dress is made using a 1950s vintage dress pattern - a lovely style for a Summer wedding. Using silky Liberty Lawn throughout this is a modern heirloom piece made with French seams and satin binding which is hand tailored to order.  The dress is modelled with a petticoat underneath (available separately).  

£60 + shipping

Wedding and bridal range from Wyckoff Smith Jewellery

Michele of Wyckoff Smith Jewellery, designs and makes bold and simple contemporary silver and gold jewellery inspired by time hewn natural forms and textures using traditional goldsmith techniques.  Most options in the range are completely unisex and appeal equally to all. Each ring has a lovely slightly irregular feel to it, as if it was dug up in an archaeological find. The shape makes them feel really comfortable, as well as having a presence and appeal. ​

This is a beautiful trio of stacking modern wedding bands: one yellow gold, one rose gold and one sterling silver. Each band is cast in a complete circle, having no beginning and no end, both symbolic and beautiful. This band is tapered on one side to 1.65 mm and rounded on the other to 4.25 mm so that it will nestle with other rings or along side an engagement ring.  A choice of matt or polished finish on each ring is available.  Order includes one SILVER, one YELLOW GOLD, and one ROSE GOLD in the carat fineness of your choice.

£929 + shipping

The Horatio wide soft D profile wedding ring is the perfect choice for a man who likes to shout loud and clear that he is confident with his choice. Comfortable to wear and beautifully hand made, the ring has little dips and swoops, just like life. This could be used as a wedding, promise, commitment or engagement ring (set with a small stone).

​£140 + shipping
