Tiarafina

A couple of weeks ago, I went to the Sip and Stroll Uptown and really enjoyed looking at all of the various artists. While there, I came across Tiarafina and just loved all of their unique pieces. Rachel and Sara have been designing and selling hair accessories since February. Knowing that Sara was very creative and into art and fashion, Rachel proposed the idea of going into business together, and taught her the basics! Soon after they dove right in and taught themselves how to hand sew flowers out of fabric as an alternative to silk flowers, and also started using other materials like rhinestones and jewels, feathers, leather, rich fabrics, buttons and brooches, etc. They now make a wide range of accessories from casual and bohemian to Princess Kate inspired hats and bridal pieces. They love doing custom work for brides, because they seem to need very particular colors, fabrics, feathers, and jewels. They keep all of our pre-made bridal pieces “unfinished” without any kind of backing on them so that a bride could choose to put the piece on a headband, clip, comb, or loops, or even add a birdcage veil or small hat base. Rachel and Sara are looking forward to working with more brides in the future and are even getting into embellishing bridal clutches with flowers, feathers, etc. for the bride and her bridal party. Other things they can do for weddings include shoe clips, corsages, fabric flower/feather bouquets, and boutonnieres for the men. So be sure to check them out at their ETSY shop- Tiarafina, like them on Facebook, or email them for more info at tiarafina@aol.com
