Just realized that I'm almost done with the whole semester and haven't posted any of my floral design pictures. Here's the first set. I learned how to make boutonnières and they are super fun and easy. In fact, after I learned how to do this I wrote instructions and taught my whole English class. Like I said, super fun! I'm dying to make more, so if you ever want one . . .
I wore this one. It was really a beautiful purple, but my phone doesn't catch blues and purples well.
This is a traditional rose, baby's breath, and leatherleaf fern boutonnière.
In this one we were learning how to make simple things to use in your hair. I'd love to make a string of these for a crown or something.
This one's my favorite. I love the wildflower boutonnières. They're dainty and sweet. I could make tons of these super fast. That one flower is hanging off there, but when you pin it on it looks great.
Just another picture of my favorite one - check out the cool wiring I came up with!
These are super simple and cheap. I taught my English class how to do these ones. The leaf is fun too because there's a wiring technique for leaves that allows you to bend them in shapes to look cool in the boutonnière.
