Creative ideas for wedding flower bouquets

How to make an amazing wedding flower bouquet.
Here are a few great ideas that will get your creative juices flowing.

Instructions

How to make a rainbow bouquet:

~Pick your favorite flower.
~Buy the flowers in a shade of white.
~Buy food coloring and put each color you want in
different vases with water.
~Put several flowers into each vase. You might want
to trim the ends of the stems first which will make


them more absorbent.
~Leave the flowers in the vases until the flower
heads turn the desired color.
(If you're short on time you may be able to find a
florist that will color the flowers for you.)
~Bunch the flowers together and tie them with ribbons.
(Make sure the ribbons are the same colors of the
flowers. Example: If you dyed the flowers red, orange,
yellow, green, blue, and purple the ribbons should be
red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.)
~You can buy the ribbons plain colors, shiny colors,
metallic colors, or sparkle colors.
~You can curl the ribbons or leave them hanging, what
ever suits you best.




How to make a butterfly bouquet:

~Buy the type of flowers you wish to put into the
bouquet.
~Buy colorful wire and colorful butterfly charms made
from plastic, metal, clay, or what ever suits you.
(Make sure that the wire is strong enough to hold your
butterflies up.)
~Take a length of wire, some as tall as your flowers and
some shorter.
~Then wrap your wire around a pencil so that
the wire makes a spiral or you can just bend it into a
wave.
~Use some hot glue to attach the butterflies to the end
of the wires.
~Buy some type of tall grass in what ever colors you like
and use how ever much you think looks good.
~Arrange the spirals and grass with the flowers.
~Bunch everything together and wrap them with silver wire.
~If you like you can use glue more butterfly charms around
the wire that holds it all together.




How to make flower name bouquets:

~Buy a type of flower with flat flower petals and have an
even number of petals.
~Buy stamps with the names of the bride and groom.
~Also purchase a heart stamp.
~Take each flower, stamp the bride and groom's names on the
same petal, on the next petal stamp the heart, and then do
the bride and groom's name on the next, and then the heart
again until all the petals are filled.
~On the flower's petals (around the stamps, not on the stamps
because it could smudge) spread some glue glitter.
(On this project always buy a test flower and try these
instructions on it. If the stamp ink leaks or doesn't take
try something else. Or just buy fake flowers.)



Good luck on your flower bouquets and wedding planning. I hope
all goes well for you. If you need more ideas, email me and
I'll help you out. Good luck.
