Brooch Bouquet

9:12 pm - 04/22/2012
I am getting married later this year and fell in love with the idea of brooch bouquets. So I decided to make my own! I am making a few practice ones before i decide exactly what I want for mine. So here is my first ever brooch bouquet :-)

Oh wow, that is really pretty! So shiny and sparkly! You did a fantastic job.

I guess this is not the type of bouquet you toss at the reception though. ;)

Thanks!!! And definitely not... not to mention it ways a ton, it might knock a guest out lol

Goooooorgeous.

You could take it apart and give the brooches to wedding attendees/the bridal party as sentimental keepsakes afterwards?

Well it might be titled brooch bouquet but its mostly made out of rings lol

That's very gorgeous :3 and lasts way longer than a real flower bouquet!

I second the thought that if you tossed that, it could knock someone out cold XD

That is absolutely beautiful!

I love this! Especially as I'm allergic to almost every flower!

That is beautiful! Where did you find the brooches/rings? How did you attach them? I'm seeing what looks like silk flowers around the edges...

Truly stunning...I don't think you need any more practice! :)

That's all sorts of awesome.

HOW did you do this?! O___O it looks absolutely amazing!

Congratulations dear.
I'm impressed with how creative this idea is. It came out nice.
I feel like there should be more ribbon at the bottom.

it's really pretty!

Wow!! What a fabulous bouquet!

This is stunning! I would love a tutorial, if you ever get time to do so. About how much did it cost you to make? My best friend is getting married this June, and I'd love to make her something like this.

Thanks!

that is awesome. where did you find so many brooches?
tribhreagnu 23rd-Apr-2012 08:45 am (UTC)
That's really lovely! Really clever idea :)
star_trackie 23rd-Apr-2012 10:41 am (UTC)
What a stunning idea. I think I should do that for my wedding. I don't like most of the people in my family anyway so I don't care if I tossed it. :) But maybe that should be your actual bouquet because I can't imagine anything prettier than that.

OH MAH LAWD. That is the coolest thing I have ever seen.
poisons_sanity 23rd-Apr-2012 02:10 pm (UTC)
I hope you don't mind, but I put this on pinterest with a link back to this post. If you do, just tell me to take it down and I will. It already got like 70 repins in the first 5 minutes it was up.

Thank you for pinning it! And that is amazing to hear! :-)
kelerion 23rd-Apr-2012 03:33 pm (UTC)
Such an original idea and it looks stunning. Well done! x
momsalive1 23rd-Apr-2012 03:36 pm (UTC)
Beautiful!!!
deepseasiren 23rd-Apr-2012 04:34 pm (UTC)
Unusual and beautiful! I think this should be featured in wedding magazines!! And keep it, don't toss it to the bridesmaids LOLOL!
lbfmusic 23rd-Apr-2012 06:45 pm (UTC)
This is a beautiful bouquet! I love the idea!

Congrats on the wedding!
deriana 23rd-Apr-2012 07:12 pm (UTC)
Breathtaking! <3

That turned out beautiful! I made a button/pinecone bouquet for my wedding.

actually, I made four because I did the bridesmaids too. Long process but they turned out amazing.

Brilliant!
meneleth 24th-Apr-2012 02:50 am (UTC)
That really is lovely and unusual. I'm just wondering, though, since you mentioned the weight -- will it be comfortable to carry throughout a wedding ceremony?

My daughter's best friend is getting married next summer. I'm going to show this picture to her. It's the beautiful and creative kind of thing she would like.

<3 it! Very chic!
missmollymayhem 26th-Apr-2012 11:42 pm (UTC)
Holy crap, I thought this was one of the posts that I feed from craft magazine! I'm massively impressed!
lil_bella_girl 27th-Apr-2012 09:46 pm (UTC)
Thank you all for the wonderful compliments!!! :-)
on_my_heart 27th-Apr-2012 10:22 pm (UTC)
That's INSANE looking! It looks GORGEOUS! Great job!
