dinkybird boutique: handmade wedding flower hair pins

{ turquoise and aqua flower hair pin or brooch }

stephanie of dinkybird boutique crafts sweet one-of-a-kind handmade flowers to adorn yourself or your ladies. she will work with you on custom wedding orders and bridal party multiples, send you a swatch, or possibly include you as a character in her next young adult novel (always be kind to fiction writers!) --

ok, so that last bit i made up, but she *is* publishing a book as well. the flowers come in both sweet accent and Drama size, and she'll even attempt to match a color -- thanks for writing, stephanie!
