Wedding bouquets


 Hallo,
    Stopping by for a quick post today - wonderfully sunny and cool out today - sat out on the deck in the back yard to soak up some sun - contented sigh......
    Finishing off the Bride and Bridesmaids bouquets this week. The first 2 pictures are the brides bouquet and the third picture is the one for the bridesmaids for my DD's wedding in July.
   My first time making wedding bouquets, so it was a learning process and such fun.  My DD's colors are teal/turquoise and copper. But for her bouquet she wanted mostly the ivory colored flowers and just a bit of color, and the bridesmaids to be mostly the turquoise and copper flowers.
   Believe it or not the copper flowers were done using white roses and copper spray paint. They take the spray paint very well if 1- you use the better quality silks and 2 - light applications, drying between each layer until you have the color you want.
   I wired the stems together and then covered them with burlap and then wrapped them in lace to make them easy to carry.
   All for today - Take Care
