Tussie Mussies

I have always been enamored by Tussie Mussies (or cones).

I love them.

I have always wanted to make them.

I finally did!!

First, I was inspired by Halloween. I love this German Silver Glitter.I added a vintage Chandelier crystal to the bottom and some velvet ribbon and a chenille stem.

Then, of course I had to make a pink fru-fru one.

I took a piece of vintage floral wallpaper and framed it in this premade silver frame.

I think it turned out sweet. I had to line the back edges with velvet ribbon because they stick out away from the cone and you could see the glue.

I didn't want any nasty bits showing.

I accented my Tussie Mussie with some vintage lace, vintage velvet flowers, and vintage rhinestone chain. Voila!!

I don't know why I waited so long. These were so quick and easy.

I guess sometimes we make things seem bigger in our heads than they really are.

If there is something you've been wanting to do for a while, do it!!

You'll probably be surprised at how great it works out.

Have a super weekend,
