Heart of gold
This heart-shaped bridal bouquet is made of Craspedia. The purple-brown Gloriosa pairs wonderfully with the yellow – the Gloriosa is processed dry and only remains beautiful for a day. The base is made of a frame of black florist wire sprayed gold. The handle is wrapped with gold-colored bullion wire. Craspedia dries beautifully, so this bridal bouquet can last long after the big day.
Bridal Jewelry
Not all brides want to carry a bridal bouquet all day. A botanical jewel can then be a solution. The necklace is made with a zigzag design in three layers of flat pink aluminum wire. The expressive Allium 'Crazy Beans' needs little else. Osmunda fern tendrils and beautiful Cambria flowers complete the piece. Distinctive and unique.
Infinite
The symbol for infinity is a circle or wreath shape – a beautiful symbol for a bridal bouquet. The base, a photo holder, has a perfect model foot to serve as the foundation for this bridal bouquet. The foot is extended with black florist wire (1.6 mm), after which the whole thing is sprayed copper. The copper-colored flowers are made of foam, treated with copper leaf, and then individually wired and twisted into branches. The wreath shape is made from these. There are also a number of dark red plastic flowers incorporated that beautifully complement the flowers and Hypericum berries. The flowers used are Talinum 'Long John', Cambria, and Gloriosa.
Little gem
The base of this gem is a floral foam bridal bouquet holder from Smithers Oasis – the lady round holder also has a beautiful shape. Pampas grass is incorporated around the shape using the insertion and spray adhesive technique. The shape is kept somewhat rounder above the holder to give it a different look. An openwork embroidered ribbon in vintage style is glued around the round shape – a beautiful detail. This bouquet requires few flowers: the chosen shades of Cambria and Ludisia perfectly match the pampas grass. Tendrils and Osmunda fern curls complete the look.
Like mother, like daughter
A matching smaller model of the bridal bouquet is always a success for bridesmaids. The daughter feels completely involved. The bouquet is made in the same way as the bridal bouquet. Everything matches! The Jacobaea 'Ovidius' leaves also dry beautifully, so both can keep these bouquets as a beautiful memory for a long time.
Cuddly
Jacobaea ‘Ovidius’ leaves are glued onto a modified shape of a Smithers Oasis sec sphere using cold glue. The stem is made of a wooden stick wrapped with silver-colored bullion wire – this is glued into the sphere. Polianthes tuberosa, dried chrysanthemum buds, Cambria, and Scabiosa are glued onto the sphere. The processed flowers match beautifully with the gray color of the Jacobaea ‘Ovidius’ leaves, whose soft leaves invite touch.
