empressbarrettes

Dressy fabric flower hair accessories and brooches here! Elegant bobby pins, hair clips, combs, bridal head pieces, barrettes and ponytail elastics.

Welcome, and let's all have fun with hair! Elegant or silly, playful or regal, you'll find it here. I make all the flowers myself from fabric remnants.....no manufactured flowers! Also, please note that almost any hair clip design can just as easily be a brooch, bobby pin or comb; it's just a matter of what hardware is attached to the back. So, please ask for the option you prefer. Custom orders and wholesale conversations are welcomed. If you see a design you want in a different color, please ask, and I can likely deliver it for you!

Do you live in Milwaukee County? Look for my work at Magpie Jewelry in Wauwatosa, and also at the Morning Glory Gallery in the downtown Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. In Washington County, my work can be found in the museum store of the new Museum of Wisconsin Art in West Bend, WI.
