Victoria's statement peonies bangle

I am always immensely grateful that I have two daughters who keep inspiring me constantly. Whether they are their words of wisdom which help make me a better person, or something they are experiencing that sparks my creativity. In this case, it's my Victoria graduating (once again) with an unthinkable master degree in decorative arts.

For those who have known me long enough, Vic has dyslexia and reading and writing have been found to be very difficult for her. Yet, she managed to conquer her biggest fear and made an achievement. Her favourite flower is peony and I have therefore created a statement brooch with three mini peonies hand wired with tiny petals and Swarovski crystals. Why three? Well, they look nice, lol, but also has two other meanings. One, I will keep it secret, but the other, I gladly share with you all. It's a symbol of her past, present and future.

The today her, is a result of hard work of the yesterday her, which gives the future her the courage and experience she no doubt needs for the uncertain journey ahead.

Also, have I ever mentioned yellow was once her favourite colour during her early schooling days? So here you are, the brooch that represents love of a mother, her pride, and of course her happiness. 

Younger daughter Elizabeth wore the bangle and I was wearing the matching brooch at the master graduation ceremony.
