crystal bouquets - i want one

I have been looking at crystal bouquets for a while now, but i have just been watching four weddings on living and seen the bride carrying one that is exactly the same as the one i have imagined i will eventually carry.

Where can i buy one from, ive seen a few places online but i want biggish tear drop crystals not the tiny crystals from ebay.

I would like to make it myself if someone could point me in the right direction as to what i need.
:TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
:T fortune with those less fortunate :T
:T than themselves - you know who you are!

    Yep you've missed it - although i dont normally watch it so i wouldnt know if it was a repeat of last weeks or not.

    I wont ruin it for you by telling you what happened. But i will say the best wedding IMO won.

    I might email the show and ask them if they can ask her where she got it form, it is perfect and exactly the one i want.

    The series ended last weeke didn't it, or was it the celeb weddings and it's a repeat?

    Just Google crystal bouquets......I've just done it and loads of websites with them on have come up.

    They are very expensive though!

  • they are pretty but expensive. Mostly because that take an age to make and totally kill the hands and wrists. Lots of peope sell them online so have a search. you can make yourself but it will take time. you would need 0.4 or 0.6 mm wire, crystals of your choice (google bead supplies) and a boquet end/ hollow cane wrapped in ribbon.

    If you are doing it yourself go for czech glass rather than Swarovski crystals. Cheaper and similar effect.
