Glamelia Wedding Bouquet

Glamelia's date back to the 40 & 50's. Designing a glamelia is old school artistry. They are handmade from invidividual rose petals or other flower petals and crafted to look like one large bloom. The design can be tedious and time consuming but make for beautiful bouquets or corsages.

When a bride whose wedding is in Mexico ordered one I was totally thrilled I had done these in a different style for another bride a long time ago this time the order was in ivory and the brides wanted a different style.The flower measure more than 8 inches across!

Fresh Glamelia's are notorious for not lasting at all after the wedding but this one in paper would be a great keepsake after the wedding!

hellebores bouquet

Kiara had ordered her wedding bouquet a few months ago and she requested hellebores,now this was my first time and it took me "quite" a while to get the idea on how make these gorgeous flowers!! The center are painstakingly made and it took me some time to get atleast close to the hellebores.. Her colors are purple and I have used all colors of purple on me plus handshaded some to get purple and burgundy tints on the flowers.
Some of the colors have not come quite clearily on this maybe becoz I shot it this eve..

Daffodil wedding bouquet

It's been a while since I posted due to many visitors popping in and my mother is with me for a short visit! Liz had ordered her wedding bouquet and 6 bouquet for her bridesmaids.She said she like bright colors and that her wedding colors were blue,green and yellow so the idea of daffodils popped in.I have been working on it with my mom and here is the collection!








The bouquet features ranunculus in shades of ivory and salmon,tulips in ivory,yellow,salmon and daffodils to create a pop.The bridesmaids hold a dozen cheery and bright daffodil with green stems.




In order to tie all into the color scheme I used a deep blue grosgrain ribbon with a rick rack tie on it.The bridesmaids have pale yellow grossgrain ribbon with blue ties.
The boutonierres are a flower called bachlelor's button in midnight blue.The stems are clay and finished with a crisscrossed ribbons.

Purple Dahlia Bouquet petite

I had a order for a petite purple bouquet from Victoria.
The request was for shades of purples flower with white flowers.Finally after juggling a bit around with different variations I felt purple dahlias,lavender bud roses and white gerber daisies went well together.I had this lavender berry filler and it went well with that I addded that finished of with some preserved leaves.

Pink dahlia paper flower wedding bouquet

Ann liked the pink dahlia wedding bouquet that Katie had ordered earlier and requested the same but with a brighter pink color for the dahlia.


The bouquet has gorgeous accents to it like pink beaded fillwer,pearl and crystal fillers,swarovski crystal centers for each dahlia.

She ordered 2 corsage for the bridesmaids in ivory.I made 3 flower and added plum accents as their dresses are shades of plum.

The men get boutonierres of ivory stephanotis and violets (my first time I am doing this) I added a few velvet leaves and they look gorgeous with ivory satin ties.
