wedding bouquet created for
keeps This long-lasting alternative
to a fresh bouquet makes a wonderful wedding keepsake.
Preserved hydrangeas, roses and maidenhair fern (Adiantum) make this
bouquet a keepsake a bride can cherish long beyond her wedding day. The
arrangement’s colors are as bright and lively as any in a fresh bouquet,
highlighting the preservation advancements that have lent freshlike
quality to today’s preserved products.
Even if a bride prefers to carry fresh flowers down the aisle, she may
appreciate having a permanent-flower duplicate of her bouquet that she
can keep as a memento. The hand-tied stems can be finished in a number
of ways including wrapping them in ribbon and securing with pearl-headed
pins.
MATERIALS: dried roses from Knud Nielsen Company; preserved
Hydrangeas from Mirsky; preserved Adiantum fern from Verdissimo.
Design by Paula DeClerk.
