Mini Top Hat - The Bijou

All that glitters is quite obviously gold.

The ever delightful Tonya of Tonya Joy Photography held a carnival inspired photography workshop in sunny California last week. Tonya's vision was my personal circus dream. Among the pages of completely glittered fantasy inspiration, she included this:


Well, we all know how much I truly adore the carnival and working with glitter. I immediately knew I wanted to make the Bijou. A sleek, elegant, whimsical and delicate hat that is completely couture. But first! I had to get the ribbons and lollipops out of my system. Here is just a peek of other top hats inspired by Tonya.



(Jasika fact: I am a hoarder. I have had these colorful pastel ribbons since 2007 when Petite Four Couture was born. They were included on the very first PFC gift box. I may keep this hat for myself... See? Hoarder.)

I don't blame Tonya one bit for choosing The Bijou for the photo shoot. It looks right at home.

You must swing by to Tonya's blog for more breathtaking carnival photos from the day.

Very good things

Making tons of tiny hats and gearing up for a Faerie Festival in March! Which means I'm spending the day with my most fun friend, The Martha Stewart glitter kit. Only good things can come of this.


Speaking of good things, this wedding dress is the very core of why I adore what I do and why I adore my customers even more. I dare you to not be inspired by this.

Thanks for the extra pretty today C! Just cannot wait to make a hat for this dress.

Life is good. Happy Happy Beautiful Friday friends!
