| ‘I’m Amanda, the creator of Untamed Petals. I love all things feminine, romantic, chic and sparkly and will be-dazzle anything I can get my hands on. A California girl at heart, I was born and raised on the West Coast. After earning a Marketing degree in 2005 from Cal Poly – San Luis Obispo, I decided to pack my bags and make the big move across the country to my now home-away-from-home — the fabulous New York City! I have since been working for MTV Networks, and although I love my day job, I have realized that I desperately need a creative outlet! So I picked up some silk fabric, grabbed my needle and thread, and began creating one of a kind headbands! After much encouragement from friends and family, Untamed Petals was officially born in May of 2009.
I believe that every girl deserves something one of a kind in their wardrobe. The Untamed Petals philosophy is that the accessory makes the outfit, which is why each headpiece, belt, corsage, and fascinator is created to make a bold statement and complete any look. Constructed from the highest quality materials–from imported silk chiffon to vintage rhinestone buttons–an Untamed Petals Accessory looks glamorous on any bride, yet chic enough to wear out for drinks on the weekend. I love to tailor each piece to reflect the client’s individual taste, with the ultimate goal of creating a completely original heirloom that will never go out of style!’ |
