Rangoli in Confetti Magazine - Winter 2008

I am delighted to have my work featured again in the Winter 08 issue of Confetti Magazine. Stylist Roxanne Parker chose another creative theme for her fashion shoot and styled the story around fairytales.

I designed a necklace especially for the 'Princess and the Pea' theme and had fun weaving tiny 2mm green Swarovski crystals into a precious encrusted 'pea' which hung from the elaborate black and green rhinestone and crochet neck-piece, (see above).

I also incorporated white feathers into one of my more dramatic headpieces which was originally designed for a 'Children of Lir' exhibition and suited the feathered style gown. This piece has black pearls and labradorite stones woven through it which reflect both purple and green hues depending on how the light shines on them.

Photographer Agata Stoinska really captures the magical qualitiy of these ancient tales and you can view more of her work at http://www.stoinska.com/
