I decided to make a Brooch Bouquet for my wedding, and I wanted to show off my progress, cause I am pretty excited about how it is all coming together!! ***UPDATE*** So I finally completed my bouquet….as you can see from the pics it is pretty different from the way I started…..of all the tutorials I found, this one was the most practical and sturdy.
brooches, floral wire, half foam floral ball, skewers ***update*** fake hydrangea’s, floral wire, brooches, floral tape, orange ribbon, and pink straight pins

I got the flowers from several different places, the flea market, ebay, etsy, and antique. Finding the brooches is half the fun! Im hoping to make a tutorial of this project, since I could never seem to find a good one online.

great idea – and it won’t die like real flowers, so you get to keep it.
