My DIY Shell Bouquet

Thank you all for your responses....this definitely makes me feel more confident in it since it's different than your traditional bouquet. I'll post the smaller bridesmaid bouquets when they're completed...still have to buy the shells for them.

Great DIY!!!! My only advice on the weight of it, is to be cogniscente of this when packing for your trip!

Great job!! I was thinking about doing a shell bouquet but, didn't think i had the patience to do it. I made Shell Bouttoniere's and that alone was already heavy!! THANKS FOR SHARING! YOU DID AN AWESOME JOB!

My very first try at it I just started haphazardly gluing shells, and quickly realized that was not going to look great. Once I had an idea of what I wanted it to look like the most difficult part was finding shells to fit exactly what I wanted. For the rest of them I'm ordering shells online. It did take quite a while...but when it was finished I thought it was worth it.
