I am super excited to be planning our vineyard wedding and couldn't be happier to be marrying Mr. Locket. We are a quirky, fun-loving couple residing in our college town with our two pups Maple and Molly. We love to go on hikes, visit our local dog park and to bask in the beauty of many of the local falls and gorges. We are an indecisive pair, but together we somehow manage to make up our minds (it's the easy stuff that's tricky).

Bridal Bouquet in Bloom

August 2nd, 2010 @ 2:32 pm by Mrs. Locket

During the first couple of weeks in June I had been diligently occasionally working on my vintage fabric flower bridal bouquet, and after a few extra days of hard work, I finally had something that was semi-worthy of a walk down the aisle.

If you recall, I started off with something like this:

…which eventually turned into this:

…and now looks something like this:

I am very excited with all of the progress I’ve made and am in love with every flower I’ve added. Thus far, I’ve created my own versions of Queen Anne’s lace, garden roses, ranunculus, peonies, and even carnations. Can you spot them?

I can’t wait to see it all come together and to show you the final product because I have a few fun adds I still plan on making.

Don’t worry: I won’t keep you in the dark for long…I plan to update you on my progress and follow up with tutorials as I add new flowers and details.

Also, coming up next, I am going to clue you in on another project I had played with during that same week in June.

What do you think? Do you have any projects slowly taking shape?

I love this! You did an awesome job. I am tempted to try it myself after my flop of a meeting with the florist… lol
