Everyday Diamonds Inspires Design by Cassandra!

I'd like you all to meet Jessica and her sister, Robin.  They have a little Etsy shop they like to call Everyday Diamonds, and revel in all their creative bliss on their blog, A Handmade Revolution.  I've had the pleasure and honour to get to know Jessica and be able to bounce ideas around with her about our respective shops and creative processes.  I'd have to say that if it wasn't for Twitter, I wouldn't be able to have met Jessica and many other talented Etsians whom I've been able to receive such valuable criticism, praise and inspiration from such a great community.



I've fallen in love with Jessica's fabric flowers, with their delicate layers, bold colours and beautiful patterns.  I had asked if she could make a small set of flower hair clips for a particular necklace, but found myself newly inspired when I had first received them.  I really wanted to take my time with this inspiration, to make sure I find the components that were 'just right'.  After a few Etsy bead purchases and a recycled necklace, I've come up with three pieces, and I can't decide which piece is most deserving to be listed with!

Maybe you folks can help me out?  Leave a comment below, let me know what you think would pair the best!

Etsy Purchase from Everyday Diamonds!

Look what I bought myself for my birthday!  Ophelia's Flower from Everyday Diamonds!


I had fallen in love with this flower when I saw it as the avatar for the shop, and once I found it on sale again, I had tweeted to @EtsyEveryday to please, please hold it for me, while I was on my way to her Etsy shop at everydaydiamonds.etsy.com.  I had the option of a pinback or hair pin, but I couldn't really decide.  I was recommended an alligator pin - perfect!

Happy birthday to me!  I can't wait to get this beautiful flower!  Here are some other ones I have my eye on for a possible future purchase.
