Candytuft fairy finished

Flower spray with added bling
Remember when I said

"that bit should stay relatively unadorned" ?

 I thought about it 


and I thought it needed some more bling

before


and a bird 

After

I also asked Cathy Kezerian what she thought about it.


Her advice was the web needed to look like it attached to something,          not just hang in the air. 


so I extended the yellow flower spray from the other side of the spider


Added white iridescent sequins to the green trim

Which makes it look less like that nasty fake easter candy people used to use for decorating cake when I was a kid

You know, the spongy stuff that's "edible" but tastes like disappointment

Added clear iridescent sequins and white beads to the white seam treatment


I originally made an embroidered bird for this spot but it ended up being too big,  which made room to gave this little fellow a home

It's made with bullion's and 2 kinds of tubular net ribbon for the wings head and tail



This added just enough to make it more but not too much


It just goes to show when your are unsure, ask
