Diadem
On the big day, every bride is a princess. For brides who love attention, a flower diadem is the perfect crowning touch. A diadem (from the party store) is a perfect base to glue materials directly onto. On the base are fine fresh materials in shades of purple, brown and green such as orchids, Gloriosa, Talinum 'Long John' and Osmunda fern curls.
Heart of Gold
This bridal bouquet in a heart shape is made of Craspedia. The purple-brown Gloriosa goes great with the yellow - the Gloriosa is dry processed and only lasts a day. The base is made of a frame of black florist wire sprayed in a gold color. The handle is wrapped with gold-colored bouillon wire. Craspedia dries up amazingly beautiful, this bridal bouquet can last long after the big day.
Bridal jewelry
Not all brides want to walk around with a bridal bouquet all day. A plant-based piece of jewelry can be a godsend then. The necklace is made with a zigzag design in three layers of flat pink aluminum wire. The expressive Allium 'Crazy Beans' needs little. Osmunda fern curls and pretty Cambria flowers complete the jewelry. Distinctive and unique.
Infinite
The symbol for infinity is a circle or wreath shape - a beautiful symbolism for a bridal bouquet. The base, a photo holder, has a perfect model foot to be used as a base for this bridal bouquet. The base was extended with black florist wire (1.6 mm) after which the whole thing was sprayed in copper color. The copper-colored flowers were made from foam, worked with copper leaf and then put on wire each and twisted into branches. From this the wreath shape was made. There are also a number of dark red plastic flowers processed that color beautifully with the flowers and Hypericum berries. The flowers used are Talinum 'Long John', Cambria and Gloriosa.
Pearl
The base of this gem is a floral foam wedding bouquet holder from Smithers Oasis - the lady round holder also has a beautiful shape. Using stitches and spray adhesive, pampas grass has been incorporated around the shape. The shape is kept a bit rounder above the holder to give it a different look. An openwork embroidered ribbon in vintage style is glued around the round shape - a nice detail. This bouquet needs few flowers: the chosen shades of Cambria and Ludisia match perfectly with the pampas grass. Tendrils and Osmunda fern curls complete the look.
Like mother, like daughter
For bridesmaids, a matching smaller model of the bridal bouquet is always a success. The little daughter feels like she belongs. The little bouquet is made in the same way as the bridal bouquet. Everything fits together! The Jacobaea 'Ovidius' leaves also dry beautifully so that both can keep these bouquets as beautiful memories for a long time.
