French Beaded Orchids

Notes from the artist :
These are my phalaenopsis orchids, the first flowers I have ever made.

Orchids represent rare beauty, love, refinement, and long life. I made these orchids using the vintage art of French beading, in which thousands of seed beads are strung onto flexible wire and shaped into flower parts. These parts come to life when the are first bound together with floral tape and then with embroidery thread.

My inspiration and passion to make beaded flowers comes from real flowers and nature.
