Hair flowers

Thank you everyone for all the links. I too was also wondering how they travel?

On my way to check out Etsy...thanks;)

That sucks so much MJKH! I know exactly what flower you bought, I almost bought it too! Then my bridesmaid said she could make it for me, then we decided to make a hair vine.  She made a pretty hair flower for herself though.

So, on to plan "B"...I'm going to head to Michaels tomorrow to see if they have something that can be fashioned into a hair flower...and next Monday I should have a whole bunch of chiffon fabric that they'll be cutting off my dress when hemming it...so I may try to make one myself.  Anyone tried a diy flower like this?

I took my real touch bouquets and bouts and corsages with me.  It depends how you pack them. I put the bouts and corsages in a cereal box and they turned out fine.  A few of my bouquets got a little smushed, but they popped back with a little arranging.

I had initially planned on going with a hair flower-  then after talking with my crafty bridesmaid - we decided to go with a hair vine. My hair vine

 

In action!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My bridesmaid also made a hairflower for herself (it was initially her practice for mine, but she loved it and wore it).  I think she's crying during the ceremony in this picture, but its the best shot of her flower I could find.

 

 

She also made a dramatic hair flower for her own wedding, that she wore for the reception.

Def don't use real flowers.  We used them for my sisters wedding in D.R. and they died by the time we got to the reception.

Here's another one for inspiration! This is a double lily (along with custom earrings) that was designed for a recent Canadian Bride headed to her wedding in Cuba! Mission: EXOTIC!
