For those of you that wanted to see my flowers..

I've finished my bouquet!

Here are some pictures. I would like to say though, that i know my carpet needed hoovering, and it was really hard to take pics of them without holding them, but i couldn't hold them and take the pic... confuzzing.

    I must say when i first seen them i was dubious of them and wondered if they would look okay. The final product is fab - i love them. All your hard work has definitely paid off. Can't wait to see your pics when your back from your wedding/honeymoon :)

    Thanks, I'm very very pleased with them! H2b is so proud of me, made it all worth while!

    I was dubious myself at the start - i knew what i wanted them to look like in my head and it was hard to achieve. Very pleased i did it though, i can keep these forever now.

    And yes! My flowers will fit nicely in my hard vanity case (since i won't be able to use it for lotions and potions as you can't take them on the plane) and my dress will be another hand luggage.

    I think h2b will take my dress and i'll take the flowers as the vanity case is cerise pink. He doesn't like being in the same room as something cerise pink, so he certainly wont want to take it as hand luggage!!

    I've got to make my little sisters now, but i think that'll be smaller. I hope so anyway! Plus, she's back from uni for two weeks from this weekend, with not much to do. She doesn't know it yet, but she's going to be cutting out little grey and yellow flowers!!


    The hardest thing BY FAR has been getting hold of yellow felt that isn't mustard, neon or a little bit green. I still don't know if i'll have enough for my sisters, she might have a very small rather grey bouquet...
