So...I have 32 days left till our wedding and am starting to freak out about this. I am making my own bouquet out of shells, kind of like this:


Has anyone made one of these and has any pointers on doing it? I love it and I know it will happen just thought I would put it out there to see if anyone has tried yet.
Thanks

This may help, but it looks like theres a lot more flowers than shells...I'll keep looking for you Shell Bouquet and more inspiring wedding dresses, bouquets, cakes, favors, and advice on marthastewart.com

I have no idea about how to make it, but I posted about a shell bouquet months back and I think everyone convinced me it might snag on my dress or be really heavy to carry.....

Are you concerned with that at all?

If you decide it's too much to take on yourself, you could probably get someone on etsy to make one for you... I came across this one for an example!

It is a really intresting idea, and it will last forever!

SWEEEEET! I'm totally doing that! maybe get a foam ball for the center and have a ton of small "filler" shells to fill in the gaps, you'll have to wire them and be gentle so it doesn't break!
