Favorite Whimsical Bouquets
Monday, January 30th, 2012These bouquets are structured differently than hand-tieds and they are all about detail. Time consuming to make, but a lot of fun!

The theme of this fabulous wedding was Strawberry Moon and the couple was interested in a classic style. They were married on a perfect summer day at the beautiful Jenkins Estate.
Thank you Mount for the great pictures!


Musing about elegant and out-of-the-box centerpieces? Botanical shoes would be a fabulous solution!
Or consider wearing luscious shoes decorated with feathers, texture and tillandsias for a special event or your wedding. And coordinate them with a flower purse or a whimsical bouquet.


Last week, while I was making the flower purses for the Schoolhouse Supply event, Ginger Coombs – camera in hand – came by for a visit.
Here are some of the pictures that she took. Thank you Ginger!
