Matching Powders With Perfume

Hi Karin…..

Nice to know there are other 'matchers' out there It's an art and very frustrating,
trying to get it right.

Here are some of my matches…..

Pink Prismatic Flower Powder with The Show Girl and the Bustier
The Daisy powder compact with The Cactus solid
New York Spirit powder with the Beau Americas solid
The Roulette Wheel powder with the Luckey Hand solid
Desert Bloom powder with the Wedding Cake solid
The Japanese Tsuru Fan powder with the Venetian Fan solid
The Piano powder with the Piano solid
America the Beautiful powder with the Ferris Wheel solid

For this year perhaps the Fantasy of Light compact may match the Sphere solid,
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT COLOUR THE SPHERE SOLID IS????? if you do please would you let me know.

I have the chick powder and this years White Linen Little Chick solid will be a good match for it.

The one problem that I have is….WHAT WILL GO WITH CINDERELLAS COACH…..
any ideas most welcome.

SO NICE TO SEE YOU POSTING KARIN keep up the good matches.

Margaret,

I am not too familiar with the powder compacts so I am afraid I cannot help with the matching of the Cinderella's coach. I would guess a blue compact like on the seat bench (if there is such a compact)

However I can help you with the sphere solid the metal on the sphere is silver and the stones are aurora borealis (picks up pink, blue, silver, green) the cord is blue silk. The stand is also silver.

You have some really great matches there. I especially like the Roulette powder with the Lucky hand solid, great! As for the Japanese tsuru fan I also started out matching it with the Venetian fan solid, but it is not ideal since the crystals on the tsuru fan are yellow and the venetian fans are sparkling white… (I know… I am very picky…) and it is a bit of an obvious match… I matched it with the Chinese blue love knot compact instead, it's gorgeous; that compact goes perfect with the Precious peacock as well. However, if you wish to have a sort of theme to your matchings, then of course this is not ideal either… I do have a theme and colour match which I really like:

Magnificent Marlin with the Blue and Green shell compacts and I also threw in the Palm tree compact for the tropical island feeling

As for Cinderellas coach, maybe the Sophisticated lady compact with its shoe on a pillow could be something… or maybe some other shoe compact… Or a simple golden heart compact?

Fruit solids displayed next to the fruit compacts. I have pears for both. The colors don't match however. Unfortunately, I need a plum solid to match my plum compact. Also, need the red apple solid to match my compact.

Wedding pearl compact with wedding cake + other solids. Don't have that compact either.

Fleurs Fontant (sp?) compact with Fantasy Flower necklace.
