    For those of you brides who have done a brooch bouquet, how did you assemble it? I have all the brooches on pipe cleaners already and that's fine. But what I'm having problems with is getting all of the brooches to sit evenly with eachother. They want to overlap each other and sit a top one another. It's frustrating.

    If I were making a flower bouquet, this would be the "arranging" step, if you're having problems understanding what I'm talking about.

    I haven't made one, but I suggest using a thicker guage of wire and then maybe get a lenght of plastic piping from a hardware store and put the stems in there. It might be easier to get the bouquet arranged that way.
