2 out of 5 starsUnfortunately I was a little disappointed in these. I was hoping the flowers would look more authentic (like in the photos), but in person I did not think they could pass as real at all. I didn’t end up using them. Perhaps I’ll find another purpose for them in the future.

5 out of 5 starsI received this crown today (July 5th)! I am going to be wearing this crown at my wedding on 6/20/2020. Let me just begin by saying this crown is beautifully crafted. The pearl details are breathtaking and are securely attached to the rest of the crown. The leaves are little darker than in the photos and so is the ribbon. The ribbon is more of a champagne color than what comes across as pink on the screen to me. The crown sits wonderfully in the hair and feels light. The sides don't press on the side of my head and I foresee being able to wear this comfortably throughout the wedding & reception! The packaging was also super cute and obviously done with care. Bottom line, this crown is a beautifully crafted piece and I'm SO excited to wear it! Thank you so much!

Gardens of Whimsy
I am a featured seller by Etsy! Check out my interview on the Etsy blog here: https://blog.etsy.com/en/featured-shop-gardens-of-whimsy/

I created Gardens of Whimsy in 2009 and through the years have handcrafted thousands of timeless hair adornments.
My designs are inspired by the wildness of nature and the aesthetic of bygone eras. I use the finest silk florals and vintage supply to create each piece with care for detail and craftsmanship.
Most of my creations are worn during important occasions, so I put my all into creating pieces that are intricate and long lasting -- that they may even become future heirlooms to pass on if you wish!
Never in my wildest dreams did I think my path would lead me to a life of designing whimsical headpieces for a living! Year after year, I feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to be creative and of course to be surrounded by flowers on a daily basis.
Best wishes,
April Rissell

I live above a cupcake shop and work from my hobbit sized home studio. In my spare time I enjoy collecting antiques, picking wildflowers, sewing historical garments.
Shop policies
My crowns are made to fit 22" heads, but if you need a different measurement or would like a crown to be split and ribbons added just let me know and I would be happy to accommodate you free of charge!
As for combs, clips, or hair pins please note that these are adornments and work best as an addition to your hair style. They will be much more secure through your day or special event if you pin your hairstyle in place first, then adorn it with your new hair accessories.
CUSTOM ORDERS:
I love doing custom orders! Due to scheduling I only can take on a select number of custom orders each month, but please contact me with any ideas or visions you have!
If I am able to work with you on a custom piece, turn around time is usually 2 weeks.
Please take note that custom orders usually cost slightly more than my set inventory depending upon the amount of time/cost of supply need to create your order.

Frequently asked questions
Care instructions
I spend a great deal of time crafting each item to be as secure and long lasting as possible, so if you treat your adornments delicately they can last for generations and even become heirlooms!
Store them with care as some fabric florals can fade if left for long periods of time in direct sunlight and be sure to hang your veil someplace safe to avoid creasing or snags. I would recommend using a garment bag to protect your veil.
Wholesale availability
If you are interested in placing a wholesale order please contact me for information on pricing, availability, and production time.
Rush Orders
Please reach out to me before making your purchase if you need an item in a hurry!
If I have the time in my schedule to rush production of your order I am happy to do so.
My standard production time is typically 1-2 weeks. If you need an item made and shipped out sooner than that, there is a $15 fee for all crowns, headpieces, and veils. Priority or Express shipping will be required.
