These are a few of the small wall hangings and wreaths that I have made. The first was featured in my book Ribbonwork Flowers, with the ribbonworked flowers attached to a wire base, embellished with vintage buttons and charms. The second was a class that I taught at my store, with the flowers and leaves made from French wire and woven ribbons, embellished with vintage buttons and charms. The third features a dragonfly that I taught at my store, embellished with silk and woven ribbonwork flowers and leaves.


Here are two neck-pieces that I have created. The first is entirely made from ribbonwork flowers and leaves from the Petals and Posies series that I taught at my store. The embellishments include vintage velvet ribbon leaves, and a sprinkling of vintage and new buttons. The second is a version of a class that I taught at my store, Entwined Treasures. The base begins with a silk cord base, and is embroidered and embellished with beads, ribbons, charms and buttons.
Enjoy this harvest of treasures! Happy Stitching! ~Christen
The components of each are beautiful as is each as a whole. Exquisitely constructed.
Thank you my friend, I enjoyed making each one, and giving those components a home. ~Christen
Beautiful. You mentioned your shop, do you still have a shop? Where do you get those gorgeous ribbons? Hard to find now a days.
Thank you Cindy. My store was located in Old Town, a historical section of San Diego, CA. I no longer sell the ribbons, trims, laces, and buttons that I did there. I would try eBay or even Amazon. ~Christen
