    I got wires and wound them around the pin bit of the brooch and then added more wire to make a "stem" but didnt use a wire collar? Not really sure what that is sorry.
    I then got a foam bouquet and just slotted in the "stems" into the bouquet then added the feathers underneath.

    Bouquet wire collar-I know some people use them when making the brooch bouquets.

    Ive done mine the same way and have wound the wires around the stems of the flowers for added support, dont want any falling out-waiting on a few more brooches in the post and have to do my bouquet handle and add some feathers/ribbon

    Ive almost finished h2bs button hole aswel just need to get ribbon for the handle

    the sashes are easy Sian.....how many do you need and how big are your bridesmaids? are they children or adults?
    I bought 2 metres of Ivory satin from ebay......costing less than £5, and 2 metres will make four sashes and 4 clucth bags too.

    I could do a tutorial later if you like?

    I would think 1 metre would be more than enough to make them.......approx £2-3 in fabric. but to be on the safe side, in case of cock ups....and considering its cheap....then I would get 2 metres. then if you got any left over.....make something else like satin flowers/roses for something.

    nick away just be careful what glue you use if using real candles had a try with hot glue it melted with the heat of the candle so seems pva is working ok so far

    under the lace a dark blue are colours are blue, silver and white, the sashes are doubled at the moment as waiting to measure up with venue so the colour will come through or alternate as the sashes have blue on them

    It all depends how bright you want it to look, personally I would go for having the blue under the white lace as I think it would look really nice, but if want the room to look really light, then I would leave the coloured sash xx
