NO flowers..just seashells.  Perfect for destination brides or beach brides or summertime brides!!!  And a forever bouquet (which I am totally into!) 

Wow.  I have a day off friday (JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT IT!!! WOO HOO) and T has to work a half a day so I might actually have some free time to make something if I can find the stuff to do it with.  This is gorgeous!  I just would love to make one and maybe a smaller/skinnier or taller version as a permanent summer floral arrangement in a large vase with some river rocks/crushed shells at the bottom! 

I actually searched on Etsy and found some GORGEOUS handmade bouquets mixed in with vintage fabrics and also embellishments on the seashells in the bouquets too. 

I might try this..darn it I found out I DO have to work friday (boss got overruled by a VP) and will one of these nearby days maybe try it!

Juuust might do it.  And of course I'd post pics! 

I have to find the time right now..it could be something fun I try on vacation next month..

any crafty bees have immediate time on your hands???PLEASE try this one.  I am going to scour martha's site in the next few weeks to see who makes it and how they rate it as a craft. 

I still love this idea so much, but ended up having Kimberly Aurora of Romantic Flowers create my seashell bouquet and my FI (and son's) bout for us!

Amazing.

Seashell bouquets are just elegant, forever, and truly unexpected!

I will be using my beautiful forever bouquet at our intimate island/beach wedding!  

JWR:  Lemme know how this tutorial from MS works out for you!  I bet it will be beautiful!

Here's a pic or two of my seashell bouquet:
