Crimson Rose of Autumn Hair Sticks

Description

Not alone in Spring's armorial bearing,
And in Summer's green-emblazoned field,
But in arms of brave old Autumn's wearing,
In the centre of his brazen shield;

Longfellow

This morning I was out in my garden and spotted this rose. It is the single flower left. Here in this part of the states we have had a severe drought and to save water I gave up on watering my flowers in hopes of conserving water for more needed things.

This single rose reminded me of Lonfellow's poem Flowers, providing hope in times of turmoil, strength in times of weakness. Roses can be so delicate yet some are resilient even blooming after the frost.

At the tips of these hair sticks are hand crafted rose lampwork beads in a gorgeous shade of crimson red.
Below are Swarovski crystal pearls nestled between silver plated beads.

What Are Swarovski Crystals?

Swarovski (swore-off-ski) is a company in Austria that
produces some of the world's most beautiful beads. Their
special process creates components that have incredible brilliance and are in high demand. They cost a little more, but the results are worth it!

The wooden sticks have been hand painted in a shade of midnight and measure 7" with 6" of usable stick.

I can also make these on the shorter 4 1/2" bone sticks painted in black. The price for a bone set would be $30. Bone sticks and the paint required to paint them are more expensive than the wooden.

Thank you for taking the time to look and have a beautiful day!
