Roses are Red....(and Pink, and Cream, and Orange....)

There is so much great stuff inspired by Victorian roses on Etsy, here is a sampling of a few I found particularly unique and charming!

These little rose soaps from FairyBubbles ooze sweetness and romance (and also shea butter and essential oil!). Perfect for a gift, wedding favor, or just a little indulgence for yourself. I love that she lists all the ingredients used for the soaps right in the listing, take a look!

I love this pendant from PrairieStarJewels because the rose is real porcelain and is set off so nicely by the little Swarovski crystals. I think this would look absolutely stunning layered with long strands of pearls.

Have you ever seen anything like this beautiful journal by BrittniKayne? A blank journal with a cover hand made out of clay featuring little rosettes, this would make a wonderful one-of-a-kind gift.

The hand was a very popular motif in Victorian times, with different positions suggesting different meanings. Here is a lovely charm necklace by Lilruby which features a graceful hand, a dainty rosette, and cute little baubles.

I can't even fathom how much time and patience goes into something like this. Beaded rose bouquet by ArtisticLane features trimming in 24K gold beads and will last forever. It even comes with a vase, what more could you ask for!
