Debs, the only downside is that we haven't had a dining table for the past 3 months: the dining room has been dubbed "wedding craft central". LOL

It's amazing how much you can save if you bother to put the time into it. Maybe I could sell my bouquets on Etsy, lol. Mind you I ahve just found this on ebay and at that price, I doubt it's worth spending the time making my own.

OMG, there is one word for that dress and how you look and it is 'stunning'! You must be thrilled!

Can I be nosey and ask debs, where did you get your flowers from to make your bouquets etc?

Thx Noctu... That dress was a lot of sleepless nights: the wedding is at the end of the month so iw as stressed out of my mind but it was all worth it.
I don;t know where Debs got hers, but I got my flowers froma local arts & crafts shop. There are also flowers in Dunhelm Mills that are quite real-looking too.

Wow they're brilliant, did you use any sort of guides to assemble them or did you already have the know-how?

debs2327

no just a rough idea in my head and had a play around but just kept them equal and roughly symetrical never done anything like that before , i would advise anyone to try it out xx

I was going to order some from ebay but I think now I'll definitely have a bash at doing it myself :-) Thanks debs!
