Beautiful Buttons = Flowers





I don’t usually make felt bouquets. In fact before July 1st, I didn’t even know how to do the fancy embroidery stitches. I had a customer email me and ask if I could create these for her.
She contacted me on July 1st and her wedding is on July 24th…in the United Kingdom. So that meant I had to teach myself (fast) how to do the stitches and get going on this order. With caffeine in hand, I was able to do all the stitching and get them done! We tried to do a cascade on the bride’s bouquet, after four attempts it just wasn’t working.
We decided that it would be best to keep the bride’s bouquet in the original round shape, like the bridesmaids. The professional pictures will turn out better and it will just look better in general.
The order consisted of one bride bouquet, four bridesmaid bouquets, one groom boutonniere (Button Hole), six additional boutonnieres and three pin on corsages. The color scheme is cream and a dark navy blue.
Enjoy the pictures!
This was a custom order for a bride who is having her wedding in a garden. She wanted something suble yet stunning. She figured she couldn’t do real flowers since she was surrounded by such great flowers in the garden.
The Bride’s side of the wedding party will have white, ivory and black arrangements while the groom’s side will have some yellow splashed in (his favorite color).
