E for Embellishment #4

Besides beads and sequins, there are other materials we can use to embellish our clothes e.g. stones, lace and embroidery.

So, for my next embellishment project, I have chosen coloured stones which my sister gave me. The stones resemble green emerald, red ruby, yellow sapphire and white diamond.

And the dress to be embellished was a floral number bought together with the previous red-fuschia dress.

Even though the concept was simple, I am pleased by the result because the stones gave more character to the floral motifs and made them look life-like.
