Bridesmaids And Tossing Bouquets

Beach wedding
I created these bouquets for my niece's wedding, which will be later this summer. I wanted to make these so that her bridesmaids would be able to keep them as wedding keepsakes. I purchased everything for the bouquets at the craft store except for the fabric used on the handle; I've had it for forever and this was the perfect use!

The tossing bouquet is a smaller version of the bridesmaids bouquets minus the beads and shells.

The pattern for the flowers can be found here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bouquet-de-mariee

I didn't follow the entire pattern, just the flower pattern.

I cut the dry foam part out of the bouquet base and handle because it was way too small.
