Materials needed:
  • Bouquet Holderwith handle
  • floral foam (dry foam for silks and dried flowers-wet foam for fresh flowers)
  • 4 sprays babies breath (will cut up sprays of babies breath to get 12 stems)
  • 9 white rosebuds
  • 3 rose buds mauve, pink or watermelon pink
  • 5 open rose red/white brick two tone(you could also use cream and beauty open bridal roses or bridal white blush roses)
  • 3 yards Ribbon
  • Glue Gun(low temp)
  • white glue or Styroglue (if you are using a Stryrofoam bouquet base)

To Make:

Separate the babies breath and cut it up into 3 sections each. Leave the stems about 3" long.

Insert the babies breath around the holder just above the lace.

Insert the rosebuds evenly around the holder. Save 4 rosebuds for the center, in-between the flowers.

Cut the stems to 3" long and add the flowers to the middle of the holder.

Cut all stems to 3" long. Fill in the open places with babies breath and insert the remaining single roses.

Tie the ribbon around the base of the holder and secure it in back with hot glue. Make a bow or just let it float.

You can hot glue more lace around the edge to really fluff it up.
