This blog is evolving. Or rather i keep changing my mind about what it should encompass. It doesn't really matter, because generally its still about Flower Couture, wedding flowers and crafts. Most of the time, its the creative personnel who's writing here, instead of the business development personnel, who's writing more at www.flowercouture.com

Behind-the-scenes

Here are some behind-the-scene pix of flowers we've worked with.


The first is the flower arrangement for the front of a wedding car.


Leaves are inserted into the oasis, to establish the outline of the arrangement.
Different types of foliage were used to create a rustic textured look.


The main flowers, in this case pink and cream roses, are inserted next.  



Orchids are next to go into the arrangement, filling up the obvious gaps.


The arrangement is tied securely to the wedding car.


Here's a peek at how we make a flowergirl's fresh flower headdress.


Ivy leaves are woven around a wire, in the shape of a circle big enough for a child's head.

Individual mini-roses are carefully wired/taped onto the wreath structure.
This part is somewhat tedious and requires patience.

Once the mini-roses are attached, tie a ribbon.

I hope you've enjoyed these behind-the-scene pictures!
