Instructions
Step 1
In order to make a wedding bouquet with your own hands, determine in what style you will create it. As a rule, it matches the general wedding style and image of the bride. Then choose the technique in which you will perform the bouquet. The most suitable option for a wedding bouquet is to place it on a portaulette in an oasis. It's not that hard for a beginner. And the bouquet will not fade for a long time, which is very important for a wedding ceremony.
Step 2
Then create a sketch of the future bouquet on paper. Draw its outline and floral material using colored pencils or felt-tip pens. The sketch will allow you to evaluate the composition of the bouquet, taking into account the color scheme and shape.
Step 3
Prepare the tools you need for the job. Use a sharp knife with a smooth edge to process flowers. Also prepare scissors, wire, wire cutters, glue gun.
Step 4
Prepare floral material for creating a bouquet. It can be small roses, two types of greenery, small flowers for filling. Decide on the choice of decorative material. You may need decorative ribbons, raffia, sisal. For bouquet decor - beads, rhinestones, lace. Everything will depend on the style you choose. For a nautical-style bouquet, shells are useful, for a creative one - buttons, for a vintage one - brooches.
Step 5
Before you start to put flowers in a bouquet, pre-process them. Cut the stem diagonally, remove excess leaves and place them in water. Put the bouquets in a container of water and wait until it sinks. It must be soaked in water.
Then decorate the handle with ribbons or raffia. After securing the material with glue, wrap the handle with it.
Step 6
The most crucial moment is the installation of flowers in the bouquets. It is important that the flowers hit the right place the first time. Otherwise, holes will appear in the oasis, because of which the flowers will not hold well. Make a bouquet cuff out of greenery. Insert the leaves evenly into the base of the bouquette. The lower row may consist of heavier leaves (aspidistra), the upper row of lungs and aerial leaves (asparagus).
Step 7
Then place the rose in the center, and arrange the rest of the flowers in even rows around it. Spread evenly and add fine floral material between the roses. For example, gypsophila. Fasten the decor on a wire and also insert between flowers.
