I have a confession to make: I own every single Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine. Not only do I own them, but I move them every single time I move to a new apartment. When I got the Winter 2009 edition, I found a few great projects.
We are still deciding on what the guys will wear, but how adorable is this suit with a bow boutonniere? The Winter magazine shows a few cool bow-inspired boutonnieres.
(from Martha Stewart: To make this boutonniere, wrap ribbon around three fingers 7 times. Holding lightly at center, fan out loops into a circle. Pin to secure, and apply fabric glue between layers. Let dry, and remove pin.)
This could be really sweet for a mother of the bride or mother of the groom.
This screams grandma to me! BUT, in a good way.

Are you considering non-floral boutonnieres? What will they look like?

I love the look of that first bow bout! 
Martha really knows her way around a spool of ribbon.
oh man.. i love all of those. i didn’t even know these existed, but now i’m seriously considering using a ribbon.
I was really into button bouts for a while. Really the only thing that FI put his foot down about. So, alas, flower bouts it is 
I haven’t even started thinking about it! But I love Martha tooo
Those could be so pretty for so many things in a wedding! Ring pillow, card box, etc. Or even a shower!
Ahhh! I totally have made the top ones! did it with blue ribbon, and now am trying to figure out how to place a green button mum in the center! 
I never considered there could be anything but flowers on a bout…I love the third one!!
Martha makes everything so gorgeous, even a simple piece of ribbon
these are really cool…. definitely got my mind churning!!
I am so glad that you posted this! I have been having a hard time finding flower bouts that I like, and will definitely consider making some now!
Martha is awesome! I actually have this issue! I’m itching to incorporate these ribbon crafts!
Love this!! Thanks for sharing. That Martha is so crafty!
