Hey everyone,
I’m a recent bee who is pretty lost in wedding planning and boy have I found some useful tools thanks to all of you.. With the help of so many of you I was able to create my wedding bouquet.. I think it turned out pretty nice for a first time try.. What do u think? And I must say it was very inexpensive to make.. I wanted a different look for my bridal bouquet rather than the traditional flowers and I saw this gorgeous beooch bouquet on Etsy but the price was ridiculous.. It was selling for $250!! Well I’m so glad I went with DIY because I paid -$195 to make mine!!
This is what I used to make it and the cost of materials:
Satin purple roses (x2)- $2.50 ea = $5
12 brooches- $45 (28th St. Manhattan, NY)
metal wire- $.99 (dollar tree)
pliers- $.99 (dollar tree)
scissors
sewing pins- $.99 (dollar tree)
white silk napkin- $.99 (dollar tree)
purple ribbon- (already had at home)
broken pearl necklace
hot glue gun
glue stick
This is the before and after pictures.. Hope I’m able to help some of you bees like you helped me.. 😉 Good luck!!
