A Touch of Tinsel

June 25th, 2009 @ 9:46 am by Llubav

For those of you who know don’t know about Tinsel Trading Company, you are in for a treat. It’s the most incredible place where one can find exquisite vintage beads, buttons, ribbons, threads, fabric and the list goes on. A lot of my goodies come from here. I love their unique sequins, trims and fabric flowers. I set a couple of hours aside whenever I’m in the Bead District because there is always something new to check out at this jewel of a store.

Recently, I was there looking for some inspiration for a bouquet project I’m working on, and I took some shots of their vintage flower wall — it is to die for! Have you seen the recent JCrew catalog with the lady wearing a lightweight coat and a cluster of flowers on her lapel? I was told the flowers came from this shop. There are so many different ways you can use these beauties - put them on your hair, dress up a present, use them as placecards or attach them to your dress!
