The final centerpieces, boutonnieres and brides bouquet

Here are the moss wrapped mason jars with paper roses hot glued on to sticks. We made river cane cross beams and hung wood burned numbers from each table. Each wood burned number is on a homemade cut out heart with hemp string and beads from old necklaces. :-)


The groomsmen and groom boutonnieres were made just out of paper, sticks, twine and moss! We dye cut out paper leaves for the back of the boutonniere, in between is filled with moss and the flower is a paper rose. We made these flowers just the how we made the flowers for the bridesmaid bouquets. Both the paper leave and paper flower are hot glued onto sticks and the sticks are wrapped with twine. Using cardstock for the paper flowers and leaves works best.


Here is my bouquet all finished! There are 26 iris flowers, lots of tissue paper flowers, paper roses from all the other bouquets, and a handful of yarn ball poofs. On a previous post I added a link as to how we made this whole bouquet. Iris flowers are my favorite blue flower, so we made origami ones in many hues of blue. The last touch we added was having a stick for the bouquet holder. :-) I fell in love with this bouquet.
