Bridal Bouquet

Here is my first for a DIY wedding. There are zinnias, hibiscus, roses, chrysanthemums and poppies here. The wired stems are loosely wrapped in tape to appear thorny. No greenery was killed in its making.

The stems are wrapped with a crocheted doily and secured with an elastic covered in ribbon. This bouquet features silk, cotton, paper flowers and some stain.
