Farm-Styled Wedding

Farm-Style Wedding and Fun Props and Flower Choices
 Fun props to use at the outdoor farm-styled wedding in the thumb of Michigan. 

We have set aside four of the coke crates for props by the outdoor tables.



We will load up the old wooden hand-truck with boxes of favors and amusements for the wedding.
 These tin lace-work baskets will hold clods of babies breath to create the outdoor aisle.






Coca-Cola - the small original bottles in a bed of crushed ice.

An antique frame, with a chalk board center, telling all who arrive of the days events. 


Awesome cigar boxes stacked as the centerpiece with bottles of single blooms surrounding.
Wrap a wine bottle in jute, wrap an interesting bottle with lace, add a charm with a photo. 



 Dyed/tinted babies breath, not so sure.
 Billy-Balls a fun item for the boutonniers.
Queen Anne's Lace

A Floral Design Workshop - 2013

Cute button wire trim, easy to wrap. I only had a small scrap of it. Ordered more. 

 The muslin ribbon comes on a bolt and really adds the vintage shabbiness to a maids bouquet.
Need to wrap the plaid taffeta ribbon with many of these buttons for a very creative look. I will be using these twice at least this summer.

Spring Expo and other Winter Doldrums


The Spring Expo - trial bouquets using only a few stems of a small amount of flowers. Trick is making creative use of what you have been given. 
 Several angles, same bouquet. Perfect for fall, the leptospermum might be hard to get. bouquet was very full, and very inexpensive.
