Great job everyone.
I love this sharing pics stuff!!
Here was my challenge for the weekend.
The bride wanted a hand tie that she saw I had done a few weeks ago.
No, wait, she wanted a cascade. Better yet - both!
Oy, what a pain. I made and remade this d--n boka three times.
No kidding. I tried ivy - too ackward. Looked like alien spikes coming out. I tried ruscus too wild. I finally just put the boka in the cooler at about 11:30pm on Friday night. I couldn't look at it anymore.
Yesterday, I started to trim the ruscus. I called the bride and told her it didn't look right with the trailing greens. She was sweet and told me to do whatever I felt was right. I started to trim more. Then, I brought out the pigtail wire(I love the stuff) and started to wire the ruscus together in spots.
I put the boka back in the cooler and had gathered the stems together at the bottom while putting it back in the bag.
Kinda of liked the looked of it all pulled together. I brought out three stephanotis and wired and glued them to the gathered placed at the bottom of the greens. I figured that I could cut off the greens when I delivered if she didn't like them. I really wanted to give her what she wanted.
She LOVED it!! Wouldn't put it down.
What you can't really see in the picture, is that with the dresses right now with all the sequins; I'm now using the clear Lomey gems in the centers of the steph. Looks great!! I hope the photographer got better pictures than me.....
