brooch bouquets





Here are a few samples.  Mine will probably not be that big unless i break the budget and buy a lot more pins.  I love the colorful ones but at the moment I'm attracted to only gold and pearls so probably the last on the right will look most like my finished product...at least in theory.

I have to pick up some floral wire and get blooming!

i love the colorful ones too but a, the enamel brooches are impossible to find and b, the enamel brooches are impossible to find. i have all gold and pearls and i think it'll work out. i'm planning lots of color in other places so i think it'll make the golden bouquet stand out.

most of the group photos show the bridesmaids with real flowers, i suppose it is more meaningful to the bride to have a keepsake. I'm not really having bridesmaids so it doesn't matter. i was thinking of saving out a pin for my witness.
