Flowers, Redone

August 19th, 2010 @ 3:23 pm by Mrs. Plaid

I thought I was done with my bouquets. But then I started working on some other flower projects and found this tutorial. I had a box of security envelopes that I’d bought for another project that never was, so I thought I’d give it go. And let me just tell you the flowers came out awesome!

I went through the entire box of envelopes and got a huge pile of flowers.

After completing them, I decided that they would look awesome in our bouquets, too. So I disassembled the four bouquets I’d made months ago and mixed in some blue flowers, and it was like there were angels singing over my head! What was once an okay bouquet just turned into a perfect bouquet!

Hallelujah! Haha. I freakin’ love them!!! I also had to make two more bouquets for the additional bridesmaids that have been added to our party.

Have you completed any DIY projects just to go back and jazz them up some more? Did they turn out better than they were at first?

These are very nice! I dont think I have the patience to craft them though. Were they very difficult?

@MsMiso: Not hard at all. And relatively fast. Find a friend to help for sure.

You’re like crafty McGyver. I can’t believe you made those out of envelopes.
