    I have just made these for my flowergirls. What do you think? I'm thinking about maybe setting up a little business selling them and other styles such as a cone, or just a basket etc, with different coloured petals/butterflies/flowers.

    Do you think I'd make much worth the effort? Don't get me wrong, I loved making them and would make them for fun, but any extra money towards the wedding is a bonus :)

    Thanks!

    They are lovely, very unusual too which I like ;)
    If people like them I can't see why you shouldn't make them to sell. You'd have to work out how much you'd make per bag to see if it's worth the time and effort on your part. I think ALOT of ladies would love them for their flower girls though .... well done clever lady x

    Thank you :) I can do different designs too :) And colours, and badges!

    I can get most colours of petals, cone's instead of hearts etc. Can get flowers, change the metal handles to ribbon, anything really. Can make them pretty bespoke :)

    It wouldn't take me too much effort, it was actually pretty relaxing and rewarding making them! I love seeing my work turn into something beautiful :)

    Thank you :)

    Do you think you'd be able to "line" them so we could use smaller natural petals in them ?

    I think I am going to go ahead with making these. I will make a facebook group tonight, granted there won't be many pics on there as they are the first ones, but then you can tell me colours etc :)

    . I love those. I had never seen these before until I went to wedding fair a few weeks ago. I said I'm going to have one of these for my little girl. :)

    @ MrsBroady2B - Thanks but MrsShawToBe made them herself ! They're gorgeous. She's going to make & sell them so I'm having one for my little flowergirl but mine will be lined with organza so we can have natural petals in them. Cant wait cos I know she'll look adorable with it !!!

    mine are similar, really easy to make i just need to stick the buttefly onto the bigger one but i'm doing that at a later date cos i don't want it to fall off in storage. they have had diamante pins added to the roses since this photo was taken.
