My attempt to a DIY flower/feather/shell bouquet!

[melette]

So ladies.. I just finished this Bouquet for my BM's. I figured it out as I went. I need your honest opinion. Does this look too cheap? Or weird?

 

Total to make this bouquet was $20. I have 6 more to go!

I like it very sex in the city! I don't know how I feel about the seashell though? But I do like it. Alot!

I was thinking the shell threw it off too!!! Thanks for your input! This was just a "rough draft"! LOL! Just to see if I can do it! Thanks!!

Maybe you can push down or cut the peacock feathers, they are sticking up very high, or move the seashell to where the rhinestone buckle is, or get a smaller seashell.... I love the white flowers and feathers but the shell and peacock just look kind of random.

I agree that there is something about the shell that doesn't look right, but other than that, it's great!

I actually like the shell, but I am hesitant about the feather. I'm jealous of people that can be so fashionable (sex in the city) though!

i'm really loving the peacock feather, but agree that the shell is outta place. great job - you are inspiring me!!

It's a good start, but before you toss anything out- maybe a picture up against the dresses would give a clearer vision.

Hmmm...I actually love all of it, except for the tall pointy feathers. They don't seem right to me, sticking out like that. That's just me though.

 

It's super creative - love it!

Ok, TOTALLY love these! They are unique and non-traditional which I'm all about. I agree, the seashell doesn't quite fit but either way they are fantastic. Good job!
