Get Creative with DIY Flowers!
We all know that the floral budget for a wedding can be quite hefty. So for all of you green thumb brides who would love a DIY project that can easily save big bucks, here are some gorgeous ideas for your reception table flowers from the experts at ibulb.org. The secret is to keep the look simple, pretty and clean using white tulips and daffodils… the perfect blooms for spring and summer celebrations!
I love this crisp, bright display made with seasonally-appropriate seashells:
How-to: To create the tightly bunched effect, gather 15-20 tulips (leaves stripped) in a cluster and wrap the stems so they are securely held together (use florist tape or a plastic tie). The stems should be cut 3 inches long so they are not seen in the vase. Fill the vase 2/3 full with small- to medium-sized seashells. Place the bunch of tulips in the vase. Carefully fill the remaining vase with the seashells. Gently add water to the vase using a watering can. Refill water level as needed.
This next creation is so easy to do, and it’s an ideal display for an outdoor wedding:
