Now Available: Scatter Crystals

Monday, November 10th, 2008

My home page receives a lot of compliments and inquiries. I have deduced that it is largely in part to the crystals that are scattered around the letter. What isn’t visible in the picture is the fact that the crystals are the same flat-backed stones that I use to cover my crystal cake toppers and crystal server sets which had to be flipped over by hand, one by one, for the photograph.

What if you didn’t have to flip them over? What if they looked like perfectly cut 3-D diamonds!? Voila: an addition to my product line is born. As the picture below shows, they are only available in “Crystal”. The colored stones are not being made at this time.

I ordered a bunch of sizes and came up with the best looking mixture, which includes 3 sizes ranging from 1/2″ to 3/8″ diameter. I have only begun to play around with the stones and they are MAGICAL. A little goes a long way or you can cluster them together for a very rich, over-the-top look. They are Swarovski so they sparkle like mad and they can be added anywhere: to tiers of the actual cake, the cake table, the sign-in table, gift table, between table settings, surrounding unity candles… I can go on and on.

If there is enough interest I will be adding them to the Accessories page and Order form but for now, please contact me if you would like to know more about pricing and the quantity they are sold in.

New Offering: Glasses with stone-filled stems

Friday, September 5th, 2008

I get asked if I carry crystal toasting flutes to match the cake toppers all the time. There is something about gluing crystals to glass that doesn’t sit well with me so I have been searching incessantly for ones nice enough to offer since the middle of 2007. I have finally found champagne glasses with stone filled stems that are perfect (and reasonably priced!). Unfortunately I do not have the ability to fill the stems with any color. They are pre-made and are only available in the clear stone color but they compliment the Crystal cake toppers and serving sets perfectly.

Toasting Flutes: Coming Soon

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

I am so excited about a new offering. I am still working out the final details but the champagne toasting flutes are going to be available on the website soon.  They accompany crystal cake toppers perfectly!  Be sure to check back in September if you’re interested in them.

Ooooh, crystal trim…

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

I have added a new offering that I am excited about. I have received inquiries for crystal trim but have only recently seen the outcome. It’s a solid crystal ribbon, or crystal belt, that wraps around each tier of cake. There is a beautiful picture on my Crystal Cake Accessories page. It compliments the Crystal Cake Topper flawlessly. It’s as close to “over the top” as you can get. It’s pricey but… tip alert… you don’t necessarily have to embellish each layer. A little certainly goes a long way. Check it out and let me know what you think!
