Awww i adore this!

Thank you! :-)

Kaya&James-They look fab!

Thank you :)

That is stunning is it hand tied together?

The brooch bouquets are gorgeous ladies xx

loving the cupcake garland LMB, soooo cute!

also loving the bouquets ladies, all very unique which is what i love about these non flower bouquets! they all have something in common but are all different, not one is the same as another

What I am aiming for
What I have so far just need to add in the brooches in the middle

Thank you its a bit bigger but I am quite tall so didnt want something tiny x

Stevie and Krissy - those are fab!

Kaya&James - I ADORE your flowers - so wish id come across this idea earlier.

Sian - how are you getting on with the embellishments etc? I think the wire collar has given it a nice frame for you - cant wait to see it finished.

LMB - I really think you should have a Crafty thread of your own

love it will the wire collar is an might have to get one if i cant get mine how i want it fingers crossed i have another delivery today so can do a it more x

thanks munchkinpie its getting there i have 18 months to perfect them.

i got most of mine for the bay kimi let me know if you want the link she has loads of different colours and sells all sort of flower related items plus free post to x

while I'm posting any ideas how to make my flower wands a bit longer as the stems are a bit short i was thinking putting it all together and rolling the stems up with a bit of cardboard from a kitchen roll holder and covering it in florist tape before i ribbon it do you think it would work x or should i make 2 smaller versions of the bridesmaids bouquets for my younger daughters they will be 7 and 8 by the wedding x

I have my bouquet in half a cling film roll - which I will wrap and decorate ofc.

hahaha RaggedyAnne thank lol will keep you update wire collare has worked wonders x

Its a really good idea wouldnt have worked if I hadnt used this x

The wire collar is def worth it has made things so much easier x

wow they look lovely thefuturemrsdolman x

Have just finished my mums or mils corsage - will make another identical one for the other mother.

Thank you. I have patience to a certain extent. Not too long, I need to finish projects fairly fast otherwise I lose the drive to ever finish them :-)
Some of the things work up really fast - and I enjoy doing it.

With this one I like it how it ties in with all the small details (incl the green polkadots) with h2bs buttonhole. But I am not 100% happy about how I wrapped the fabric - but I did lose patience and couldn't be bothered to sew it prettier :-)

It is huge though - I hope they don't mind wearing it :-)
The heart is the same size as the smallest buttonhole

It's very cute Sian - will you be able to see it against white table cloths?

its nice but maybe do it in another colour if it is going to be against white table cloths?

Yea the hearts will be in navy

i am baffled as to how you would make that garland lol....how does the lace stay in the heart shape?? xxx

Flower pic's are in my album. i just need to make more. Let me know what u think please :) x

my collar came to day and couldnt wait so had a play while hannah was asleep still waiting for some more brooches but im happy with out its going so far. x
