Making all my flowers out of satin!

Those are beautiful I have a Florist but decided to try something first, I got artificial flowers OMG

I might just go with getting myself and mom Artificial flowers too I don't know.

they feel so real even look real. These are for my Bridesmaids, Maid of Honor, and so on. I also ordered Boutonnieres for the Groom, Bestman and Groomsmen,my dad, brother.

I made my own satin and burlap flowers. There was a bit of trial and error at the beginning, tried a few flowers that turned out terrible and a colour choice I hated...but after I got the hang of it, things went smoothly. Now that I've made my flowers I'm starting to arrange them in bouquets!
I definitely think it was worth it. I spent $120 in total and will have enough to do 5 bouquets, 8 boutonnieres and a corsage for both mothers.

They look great! And will make a fantastic keepsake that you can take pride in

Beautiful! Good job. And how special that they are all handmade by you! Will make a great keepsake (if you like that sort of thing!)

View quoted message Very nice and very special. I am working on paper/scrapbooking type favors. They are taking me a minimum 1 hour each so far and that's just to do the cutting thru the big shot and poke out all the details. There are 4 more steps to complete just one so I truly appreciate anyone who puts the kind of effort required to do DIY projects. Happy flower making 🤗 P.S At what point did you decide to ask for your Bridesmaids help? I so want to be able to say I did them all by myself but with 219 days to go & a major surgery 1 month away, I'm thinking I might need to take the help 3 have offered...

View quoted message I hope they do but I did it more for myself so I can keep my bouquet and the girls can too if they want at least our flowers won't welts after a couple hours LOL

View quoted message Yes there's so many fabric options and colors!

You are doing a great job. I think your Guests will appreciate all the hard work!

Those are looking awesome, and how great that it is all totally customized to how you want it to look!

WOW very beautiful, so much detail, good job girl, looks amazing!

They are fantastic... they wholesale from a 3rd party floral wholesaler, so it's not technically from a Costco, but they are the middle man. So the prices are great, and the quality (from what I've seen/heard) is just fantastic. They do bulk flowers and greenery as well I believe.

View quoted message Omg that's actually amazing, we plan on getting greenery and babies breath real.
I'll have to check Costco out!!!

Oh my goodness! Your level of patience is amazing. They look great!

I do not want flowers enough to deal with that... nope nope nope. We have one floral package from Costco picked, it will be about $250. Enough bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages for everyone... and no time spent on my end!

I normally love DIY, but I'd rather spend that time making other things... flowers just aren't a big thing for me.

These flowers look great!

Flowers look great and real. Love the pearl touch! It does take a while to createa plus savings to pur back in your bank.

I think this is a great idea!! It was an idea I had for mine too! However, I'm a seamstress and I've made a costume once that had over 100 handmade roses on it and by the end I almost hated the thing I was so annoyed with making them hahah!! So for the wedding I decided against it.
Keep at it though these are looking great!! I hope you share some finished photos I'd love to see the full colour combos you're doing with these!!

I'm not making my flowers myself, but yours are looking very nice! The hard work will pay off
